If you are encountering the error code 0x0034 with the message “PF LOAD POSITION excess speed error” displayed on your Epson L3118-L3119 printer, it indicates a problem related to the printer’s paper feeding mechanism. This error can occur due to several reasons, including encoder failure, motor driver failure, main board failure, tooth skip, or improper tension of the timing belt.
To resolve this issue, you can follow these troubleshooting steps:
1. Check for any obstructions: Inspect the printer for any foreign objects or bits of paper that might be obstructing the paper path. Remove any such debris carefully.
2. Verify paper quality: Ensure that you are using the correct paper size and type according to the printer’s specifications. Additionally, make sure the paper is not damaged, wrinkled, or curled, as it can cause feeding issues.
3. Reset the printer: Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source. Wait for a few minutes, then plug it back in and turn it on. This reset can help clear any temporary glitches in the printer’s system.
4. Check the timing belt: Open the printer cover and inspect the timing belt. Ensure it is not loose, skipping teeth, or damaged. If any issues are detected, consult a professional technician for further guidance.
5. Contact Epson support: If the error persists after performing the above steps, it might indicate a more complex issue like encoder failure, motor driver failure, or main board failure. In such cases, it is recommended to contact Epson’s customer support or seek professional assistance for proper diagnosis and repair.
