Epson's Triple Secret Error Codes

Understand Epson's Error Code

Epson doesn't like to tell you the way things are.  It will show you an error code and ask you to guess.  If you don't want to guess, contact a Epson service center and pay with your home for first-born child.  Over the years, I summarized some of the common error codes.  Hope it helps.

Startup Failures: 0000xx

This is when your printer went FUBAR (F'ed Up Beyond Any Recognition). Most of these errors are very easy to fix once you know what the problem is.
