Epson TX200-TX205-TX209 Error 0x58
The Epson TX200-TX205-TX209 printers may sometimes display the error code 0x58, indicating a PF motor drive error. This error occurs when there is an issue with the motor that controls the movement of the paper feeder (PF) mechanism. It can prevent the printer from properly feeding paper, resulting in printing disruptions.
When encountering this error, it is important to follow troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue. Here are a few recommended solutions:
1. Restart the printer: Sometimes, a simple restart can fix minor glitches. Turn off the printer, unplug it from the power source, wait for a minute, then plug it back in and turn it on again. Check if the error message persists.
2. Clear any paper jams: Paper jams can cause motor drive errors. Open the printer cover and carefully remove any jammed paper. Ensure there are no small pieces stuck in the printer that could impede the PF motor’s movement.
3. Check for obstructions: Inspect the printer for any foreign objects that might be obstructing the PF motor. Remove any debris or foreign materials that are found.
4. Reset the printer: Resetting the printer to its default settings can eliminate any software-related issues. Refer to the printer’s user manual for specific instructions on how to reset it to factory settings.
If none of the above solutions resolve the PF motor drive error, it is recommended to contact Epson customer support for further assistance or seek professional help. Remember to provide them with specific details about the error code displayed on the printer for a faster and more accurate resolution.
