Epson TX820FWD Error 0x10
The Epson TX820FWD is a multifunction printer that is highly regarded for its scanning capabilities. However, like any electronic device, it is susceptible to errors. One such error is the 0x10 error code that is displayed on the scanner. This error indicates a problem with the scanner/ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) home position detection.
There are several potential causes for this error. One possibility is a failure in the CIS (Contact Image Sensor) module, which is responsible for capturing the images during scanning. Another potential cause is a failure in either the upper or lower housing of the scanner.
Additionally, the error may be triggered by a malfunctioning scanner motor or insufficient grease on the scanner mechanism. A foreign object obstructing the movement of the scanner can also lead to this error. Furthermore, a cable disconnection between the scanner and the main board could be the culprit.
To troubleshoot this error, there are a few steps you can take. Firstly, check for any foreign objects that may be blocking the scanner’s movement. Remove any obstructions carefully. Next, ensure that the cables connecting the scanner and the main board are securely attached. If there are no visible issues, you can try cleaning the sensor module and applying the necessary amount of grease to the scanner mechanism.
If these steps do not resolve the error, it is advised to contact Epson customer support or seek professional assistance, as the error may indicate a failure in the main board, which would require a more advanced troubleshooting and repair process.
It is important to note that attempting to dismantle or repair the device without proper knowledge or expertise can cause further damage. Therefore, it is highly recommended to consult with professionals for assistance with resolving the error.
