The roller is the part of the printer that pulls paper from the paper tray during the printing process. If the error code E03 appears on the Canon MP258 or MP287 printer, it is most likely that there is an object blocking the roller's working process. Apart from that, this error could indicate damage to the roll sensor which functions to read the movement of the roller.
Cause of Error E03 Canon MP258 Printer
- The following are several causes of printer error E03
- The printer jams when printing and paper remains in the print.
- There is a foreign object in the printer roller so it cannot work.

- The round encoder sensor is damaged.
The way to clean or replace the Canon MP 258 printer timing sensor
- Open the back cover of the printer (the part that is black) remove the 2 screws (nuts) on the right and left and then pull it towards the top and push it out a little.
- Open the left side cover of the printer by first opening the lock at the bottom, pressing and pushing it outwards. Or you just need to open the gray left side cover by pressing a little inward and pushing it outward (as much as the paper comes out)
- If the left cover is open, we will see a transparent plastic disk which we call the timing sensor. If it is found then immediately clean it with alcohol and a soft cloth. If it is already damaged, then there is no need to hesitate to remove it from the adhesive because the timing sensor is actually only attached with glue.
For the price of the timing sensor itself, you can directly ask at the nearest computer store around where you live.
