Scanner error message

Hi!

Open the Lid for scanner, check for a switch on the side for Scanner Lock. Try to switch it to unlock position and retry booting up Printer. That should take care of scanner error message.

Hope this helps. Cheers!

Hello cockie ,

You can diagnose most problems by checking the control panel LED's for ink out, paper-out or copier problem.
If a problem occurs while you're printing, you'll see an error message in the progress window on your computer.
It may also be helpful to try running a printer nozzle check.

See the following message problems and solutions:

The only things that can cause a scanner error on this unit is a complete scanner harware failure or the scanner lock. With the unit on lock the transport lock and unlock it a few times quite forcibly. Then leave it in the unlocked position and power off and on again. If the light returns then at his point I think a new printer will be needed.

Go to manufacturer's website, and download the latest device drivers for your model printer, and any other software updates they provide.

The Scanner has died. If you Know someone else who has the same model but is not printing but scanning fine you can swop over the scanners. This solution don't work 100% of the time but i have fixed a few this way.
