What error codes generally mean
Different brands use different code formats, but many codes fall into common categories: paper handling, supplies, covers/sensors, or connectivity.
Paper/feed
Paper jams, empty trays, or misfeeds can trigger warning messages or codes.
Supplies
Ink/toner low, not seated correctly, or needs attention/cleanup.
Connectivity
Wi-Fi/USB issues can cause offline, not found, or communication errors.
General checks to try
Basic checks
- Restart the printer and your computer/phone
- Confirm paper is loaded and trays are seated
- Close all covers/doors firmly
- Check for obvious jam messages
- Wait for the printer to show “Ready”
Connectivity checks
- Confirm the printer is on the correct Wi-Fi name (SSID)
- Keep the printer closer to the router for setup
- Remove and re-add the printer on your device
- If status shows “offline”, follow the offline guide
If prints are faint or washed out, see:
