Epson TX220 Error OxFC
When encountering the Epson TX220 Error code OxFC displaying on your printer, it generally indicates a PF LOAD POSITION excess judgment error. This error can be caused by various factors, including encoder failure, PF motor failure, PF Mechanism overload, cable disconnection, or FFC (Flat Flexible Cable) disconnection.
The encoder failure refers to the malfunctioning of the component responsible for accurately measuring the position of the print head. If this encoder fails, it can disrupt the proper movement of the print head, resulting in the OxFC error.
PF motor failure occurs when the motor responsible for advancing the paper fails to function correctly. This failure can prevent the printer from properly loading the paper, leading to the error code.
The PF Mechanism overload error occurs when the printer’s paper feed mechanism becomes overloaded, either due to excessive or improperly stacked paper. This overload can hinder the paper feed process and trigger the OxFC error.
Another common cause of the OxFC error is a cable or FFC disconnection. These cables connect various components within the printer, and if they become loose, disconnected, or damaged, they can lead to communication issues between different parts of the printer, resulting in the error code.
To troubleshoot the Epson TX220 Error code OxFC, start by checking the connections and ensuring that all cables and FFCs are properly connected. If any cables appear damaged, they may need to be replaced. Clear any paper jams, reload the paper, and ensure it is stacked correctly to avoid overloading the PF Mechanism. If the error persists, it is advisable to contact Epson customer support for further assistance or consult a professional technician for repairs.
