This is a service station error indicating that the printer could not move the pirnthead mechanism over the service station. First check to see if there is anything in the carriage path such as a piece of paper blocking the carriage. If there is not then it is likely a bad service station that will require replacement. Always try powering pirnter off then on to see if it was temporary error.

Hello. Designjet T1100 disk failures are pretty common. HP has made it difficult to do anything with their HDDs by securing them with passwords. When a new HDD is installed, it also takes on the ID of the plotter and refuses to work in any other plotter from then on. LPS Computer has T1100 hard disk drives that have been modified to install and work properly and they cost less than HP is asking. They can be seen here: http://www.lpscomputer.com/collections/designjet-t1100-t1120-parts

02.1:10 service station error- failure to reach home position . you need a service tech to replace the service station within the plotter

For Tech Gus only:Error message: Remove paper from sheet path:Resong: Dut dust formed on paper sensing IR sensor.. Remidy.. check the snap shots to clean paper sensor, contains how to remove, clean.. Remove right door then start follow the snap shots...Fix all carefully.. Best of luck..

Most times when this error occurs it is because of one of three things: 1. Paper jammed in the carriage path that prevents the printhead from moving all the way from left to right. Check closely on the far left and right as paper can be pushed into the interior of the printer by the service station. 2. The printhead cover was not closed properly and the metal ring that that the blue handle is supposed to engage in is catching on the side of the printer. 3. The drive belt has either come off the track or broken. Open the lid and check the black rubber belt that drives the printhead assembly. It should be taunt. If it is loose there is a problem. I have had several 1100 series designjets throw their belt off the tension pulley. You can sometimes reseat it but my experience is that it will get thrown again. If you replace the belt, replace the tensioner at the same time.

For tech guys only :Open right side door, check any obstruction in service station while moving.Check service station connection, re-fix once again.. checkRemove service station, remove motors, clean entire service station with water, ensure that entire ink should be washed out allow it for dry, apply grease to the moving parts, fix it back, check...( cleaning service station is very dirty work be prepare for that). check.. Replace service station...

The priming option should be in the service menu. Typically you start the priming operation and the plotter will prompt you to install the startup heads (orange). Make sure you have no low cartridges or the operation might fail, although I believe the system will tell you if any ink tanks are too low to prime.

System Error 44:10 Problem Description Problem with the Aerosol Fan Corrective Action: Reboot the Printer. Check the Aerosol fan cable is not damaged, Replace the Aerosol Fan, if error continues, Replace Interconnect PCA

Designjet T1100ps -Q6687A. 08:11 error. The formatter is okay but the hard disk is bad. How can I load the system software in a blank hard disk or try to clone

it is quite common for the chips on the ink/printrhead cartridges to fail, I would recommend you contact the supplier and inform them of the failed chip and they will likely send a replacement, unfortunatly there is no other way round this other than to have the cartridge replaced, again. if however after the second cartridge faile to be recognised then the ISS Pca may need replacing but unlikely,
