Epson L6570 Error 0x0071
The Epson L6570 printer may encounter an error code 0x0071, accompanied by a display message indicating “I/S LOAD POSITION reverse error.” This error signifies a failure in the operation of the I/S (ink system) motor, resulting in the ink system being stopped. There are several potential reasons for this issue.
One possible cause of the error could be a mechanism overload, where the printer’s components are exerting excessive pressure on certain parts. Another factor could be a broken gear within the printer, inhibiting the proper functioning of the ink system. Encoder failure is another potential cause, where the encoder, responsible for translating the printer’s movement into digital signals, malfunctions.
Additionally, a contaminated encoder scale, which is responsible for determining the position of various components, can lead to this error. If the flat flexible cable (FFC) becomes disconnected or damaged, it can also trigger the error message. Moreover, if the encoder sensor, which reads the encoder’s signals, fails, it can lead to the I/S LOAD POSITION reverse error. Lastly, a failure in the main board, the central control unit of the printer, can also cause this issue.
To troubleshoot this error, several steps can be taken. Firstly, it is recommended to check for any visible damage to gears, FFC connections, or cables. Cleaning the encoder scale and ensuring it is free from any contamination is also advisable. If none of these steps resolve the issue, it may be necessary to contact the manufacturer or seek professional assistance to address the main board or other internal failures.
It is important to address this error promptly to restore the printer’s functionality and prevent any further complications in its operation.
