Error code 5C00, Canon Selphy DS810

Error code 5C00 occurs with 4 blinking alarm lights upon turning power on...."grinding" news for several seconds first like trying to load paper, then the error. Bought second-hand at a garage sale but first owner never printed with it. I believe the box was sitting for a long time unused in a basement with the ink cartridge installed. Tried to clean waste ink pad with a damp q-tip...problem still occurs. Any advice or camera shops that will look at this issue?

HI..
It means that the purge assembly, thats the cleaning unit where the printhead parks when off on the right, is jammed and cannot move.Look for paper or foreign material stopping it from moving. Sometimes the squeegee unit needs to be pushed back if the pads get stuck under it...

thank u

I get error 5C00. It didn't reset after being off over night.

5C00 is a purge unit error, usually ink dries and makes the unit sticky so the parts don't move freely. If you can reach in to the right after you unplug with the printhead in the center and move it left out of the way. Try cleaning the area with a damp Q-tip. Otherwise a shop repair.

Canon selphy ds810 error code

5C00 says that the purge unit is not cycling properly. It's the cleaning unit where the printhead parks. If you can't see something caught in there, it's probably a shop repair...

Need trouble code for selphy ds810 trouble code is 6000 or where can i get all of them

Error 6000 is a paper feed error, something may be inside stopping the feed rollers from turning, otherwise it could be ink on the paper feed sensors. If you can't see something inside like a paper clip or something else that doesn't belong, I would reccomend shop repair.

Error code problem

Unplug printer. Press and hold power button for about 15 seconds. 5C00 is a hardware service code. Meaning there is an EEPROM error on the printer systemboard. Which may need to be replacing by a certified techinican.
