Epson R2880 Error OxCO
The Epson R2880 printer is an efficient device that produces exceptional print quality. However, sometimes users may encounter an error code OxCO on the printer’s display, indicating an ink device error. This error is typically related to ink cartridge failure or issues with the holder board assembly.
One possible cause of the error is an ink cartridge failure. This occurs when the printer fails to recognize the installed ink cartridges. To troubleshoot this issue, try removing the cartridges and reinstalling them properly. Ensure that they are securely inserted into the designated slots. If the problem persists, it may be necessary to replace the ink cartridges with genuine Epson ones. Using third-party cartridges might cause compatibility issues.
Another potential cause of the OxCO error is a failure in the holder board assembly, specifically with the Contact Image Sensor Chip (CSIC) or contact failure. In this case, it is recommended to power off the printer and disconnect all cables. Check for any loose connections, damaged wires, or dirt accumulation on the holder board assembly. Cleaning the contacts with a soft, lint-free cloth can also be helpful. If the problem remains, it might be necessary to replace the holder board assembly.
In some instances, the OxCO error can be associated with a main board failure or cable/FFC disconnection. These issues are best addressed by contacting authorized service centers or Epson customer support for further assistance and potential repair.
To ensure optimal performance and minimize the occurrence of errors, it is essential to handle the Epson R2880 printer carefully, following proper installation and maintenance procedures. Regularly cleaning the printer and using genuine Epson ink cartridges can significantly contribute to its longevity and prevent various error codes from occurring.
