Epson Paper Jam Error

Hi my Epson Stylus Photo RX560 has a paper jam error, but there is no jam. When the start button is pressed to try clear it, the paper feeds through with no problems however the error still comes up. Please help!

  • siamese2 Aug 03, 2008

    RX560 - I have a similar problem - only it is with the DVD feeder. I have a new feeder, from a collection I have bought, and still the problem persists. It Error messages that there is a Paper Jam Error, when in fact I am trying to print on to a DVD or CD. I have actually had this problem since I bought the machine 2 years ago and Epson do not seem to know how to answer this. I've tried everything they suggested (hence the new feeders), switched on - off. Then on about the 10th try - it might work. It is really frustrating. Something inside the machine seems to be not reading the fact that there is a disc to be printed. Any help out there?

My Epson Stylus Photo RX580 had a paper jam. I cleared it but now the screen keeps saying "Printer error has occurred. See your documentation". I've turned it off a few times and I don't know what needs...

1. turn it off & disconnect from computer
2. open printer & check for any obstructions
3. load a sheet of paper, press & hold the paper feed button while turning the printer on
4. it should print a test page, else the printer needs service as there might be some no-user serviceable parts inside that got damaged by the paper jam.

Epson rx560 general error

Hi,

Unfortunately a "general error" is different from the commonly assumed "service required" error.

Usually a general error comes about because of something a bit more serious than a paper jam which stops the printhead from moving around as it should, cartridge chips not reading properly, etc...

It's worth trying the following and seeing if any of them help
  • Open the printer lid and using a flashlight/torch, carefully examine the area that the printhead travels along to see if there's any foreign objects, ink soiled paper, etc.. that might be getting in the way.
  • Try getting the printhead off the parking area and check this for any parts of the cleaning station that may have dislodged or other foreign objects that do not belong
  • Remove all the cartridges, clean the chip contacts carefully with a cotton bud and check the contact wires inside the cartridge holder area for any damage.
Beyond that it's a case of looking for clues that might indicate where the problem lies.. ie: if the printhead stops in a particular place, screeching noises, etc...

Hope some of that helps narrow it down some.

"Clear paper jam" error, but there is no jam!

Use flashlight to shine inside of all possible visible areas of printers. Especially to the very right or very left. I'm sure you will find something. Remove it

Epson Photo RX600 error messages

Hi.
Check for a paper jam inside the paper feeder... There's something blocking the path that is why the 3-beep is activated. Also put lubricant to the head's round-bar, gears and levers.

Goodluck... Fixya me...
