Epson L3152-L3153 Error 0x10
The Epson L3152-L3153 Error code 0x10 Display on SCANNER indicates a problem with the scanner’s home position detection, CIS Module, upper housing, lower housing, scanner motor, grease, foreign objects, cable connection, or main board. This error can occur when any of these components experience a malfunction.
The home position detection error refers to a failure in determining the correct starting point for the scanner. This can be caused by a faulty sensor or misalignment of the scanning mechanism.
The CIS Module failure occurs when the Contact Image Sensor (CIS) module, responsible for capturing images, encounters a malfunction. This can result in poor scanning quality or no output at all.
Failure in the upper or lower housing components of the scanner can lead to physical issues that prevent it from moving smoothly, causing error code 0x10.
A malfunctioning scanner motor can also trigger this error code. The motor is responsible for controlling the movement of the scanning mechanism. If it fails to function correctly, the scanner may not be able to complete its scanning process.
Insufficient grease or lack of lubrication in the scanning mechanism can cause friction and hinder the scanner’s proper functioning, resulting in the error code.
The presence of foreign objects, such as dust or debris, in the scanning area can obstruct the movement of the scanning mechanism and trigger the error.
A cable disconnection between the scanner and the main board can also lead to this error code. It is essential to ensure that all connections are secure and properly attached.
Lastly, a failure in the main board, which acts as the brain of the scanner, can result in various errors, including error code 0x10.
To troubleshoot these issues, it is recommended to check and clean the scanner for foreign objects, ensure all cables are secure, and contact Epson support for professional assistance if needed.
