Error my cx3200 keep showing error even after everything is ok, why isit showing this can somebody help before i throw away the printer

Hi

There are various sensors based on the printer and it maybe that one of these has failed. Try using a can or air to clean around the paper feeding area and see if that helps, if not then it maybe time for a new printer as the CX3200 has been superseaded many times now.

Thanks

Check chip connector, it may be dirty or not good connection. So printer not recognized chip.

replace the cartridges with orignal epson cartridges.if u replace it with compitable cartridges it will show this error.

Cannot print document and scanned on it.And make important copies.

Please follow the steps below to resolve your issue.
1) Turn off the printer.
2) Lift the scanner cover.
3) Toggle the transportation lock five times, ensuring that it is in the unlocked position, towards the back of the scanner.
4) Turn on the printer, and the error should be cleared.

Hi,

I just like to ask to where specifically you can see the red light. It will help us determine what cause the red light. To give you heads up as well, the Printer's LCD screen can help us determine what exactly the offline condition of the CX3200 is:


Error message: No color or black ink cartridge-->Press the Color Copy button to install a new ink cartridge.
Solution: The indicated ink cartridge is not installed. Please install the necessary cartridge(s).

Error message: Color or black ink out -- >Press the Color Copy button to begin replacing the ink cartridge.
Solution: The indicated ink cartridge is out of ink. You will need to replace the necessary ink cartridge(s).


Error Message: Ink cartridge error -- > Press the Color Copy button to begin replacing the ink cartridge.
Solution: There is something wrong with the ink cartridge. Make sure the cartridge is genuine Epson ink. Also, try reseating the cartridge (remove it, and then reinstall it).

Please go to my website http://www.the-inkstore.co.uk where I have the latest version of SSC Service Utility to download directly onto your computer and instructions on how to use it, what to click on etc etc. Everything you need to know will be there. For Epson RX500 users there is also a manual reset on my site, as the SSC Serve software won't do it for you.
When using the program & choosing your printer from the list, it may have a weird name with 'x' in the model number, this is because some configurations are for many models in a series. For example, the C46 will be listed as C4x as it is for the C42, C44 & C46 models.

I hope this helps all Epson users to overcome the Epson scam of page counting and locking out until you pay their dealers money for maintenance.

If you like what I've done for Epson users, please show your appreciation by spreading the word and perhaps buying your ink from my site.

Happy trouble free printing
