Epson Acculaser CX11NF Error 'Service Req E527'

Hi.. To fix the E527 error, close the front panel (cover A) and open the top cover (cover B). With the photoconductor unit removed, the toner carousel will rotate. It only rotates if cover A is closed all the way. You can easily rotate the carousel to a position where you can remove/reinstall the toner cartridge if stuck.

Thanks

Epson schematic (e511 error)

Hi-

Try reseating all the toners, as well as the photoconductor unit. If all fails do a reset using the panel. Call manufacturer for 562-276-4382 for step by step instruction.

Hope this helps

Epson Aculaser C1100 Printer suddenly stopped printing

Hi,

To my knowledge Error Code E511 refers to photoconductor and/or its associated components. It is possible that:
  • the photoconductor requires a bit of cleaning and to be reseated snugly;
  • the black rubber conveyor (transfer) belt inside the photoconductor moved away from its path;
  • the silver square reflector on the transfer belt needs cleaning;
Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.
