How to overcome the Epson L210 printer paper jam – As we all know that one of the most problematic devices is the ink printer. Moreover, those who are old enough or rarely used will usually have problems when they are used again. Starting from the ink that dries up to the frequent occurrence of paper jams which can make us quite troubled because we have to fix it first.
There are many types of ink printers currently available, but what we will discuss this time is the Epson l210 brand printer. However, currently users of the Epson l210 are the printers that most people use today, so the problems that arise are also more or less the same on average.
Some error information statuses that occur often appear when the Epson L210 printer has problems, more or less as follows:
- Cancel all print jobs
- Open the scanner and remove any jammed paper
- Close the unit and turn off and then on again
The error message indicates that this Epson printer has detected a paper jam or jam. So we have to take the stuck paper by canceling all commands and restarting the printer.
What causes paper jam in printers?
The first possibility that most often occurs is that the user inserts paper that has been wrinkled. So that when the crumpled paper enters the printer it will get stuck which can make the printer damaged.
Paper that is wrinkled does not mean that it is clearly visible to our eyes. But paper that at first glance is still good but only the edges are wrinkled then it can also cause paper jam. So make sure the paper you are going to use for printing is not wrinkled at all from end to end again.
The second possibility is that you have piled too much paper on the printer paper tray. What's more, the stack of papers was not neat and there were some that were folded in the middle but not visible. It's a good idea to make sure if you want to print a lot then trim it first and then put the paper into the printer paper tray.
And if there is still a paper jam when it is difficult to use good and neat paper, then it means that there is a possibility that the printer sensor has a problem.
Also pay attention to whether there are foreign objects that make the printer jam even though it is small? To avoid this from happening again, the printer must be cleaned regularly so that there is no dust or other objects that can cause paper jam.
How to fix paper jam on EPSON L210
How to deal with the correct Epson L210 printer paper jam so as not to damage the components? Most people, if there is a paper jam, they will immediately pull the paper as hard as possible to get it out immediately.
This of course is the wrong way and can cause more severe damage to the printer itself. If there is a paper jam, do not immediately pull the stuck paper out.
First, pay attention to the condition, is there something else that is causing the paper to get stuck? Because the inside of the printer roll will be very sensitive to foreign objects. Paper that enters the printer if there are other objects that block it can cause paper jam. The next step you have to do is to carefully remove the paper jam from the printer.
Gently pull it from the bottom so it doesn't tear and make it harder to pick up. Never pull the paper by force from above, because it will cause damage to the broken axle.
A trick that can be quite helpful to overcome this is to restart the printer. Usually a printer that dies and then comes back to life then the drive wheel will eject the paper out.
If the paper still doesn't want to come out because it's stuck badly, then there's no other way but to disassemble the printer so that all the paper can come out.
However, this method should not be done if the printer still has a valid warranty. Because dismantling the printer is the same as eliminating the warranty that is still valid.
