Epson PX-504A Error 0xC8
When using the Epson PX-504A printer, you might encounter the error code 0xC8 on the display, which indicates various ink device-related issues. This error is typically associated with ink cartridge failure, holder board assembly failure (related to the Constantly Self-Restoring Ink System or CSIC), contact failure within the ink cartridge, main board failure, or cable/FFC (Flexible Flat Cable) disconnection.
One of the potential causes for this error message is a problem with the ink cartridge. It could be either an empty cartridge or a faulty one. In such cases, first, ensure that the ink cartridges are properly installed and the protective tape is removed. If the issue persists, try replacing the problematic cartridge with a genuine Epson ink cartridge.
Another probable cause might be a malfunction with the holder board assembly, specifically the CSIC or its contact points. Check if the CSIC contact points are clean and properly connected. Gently clean them using a lint-free cloth or swap the ink cartridges to determine if the issue lies with a specific cartridge or the holder board assembly itself. If necessary, contact Epson support for further assistance with repairing or replacing the holder board assembly.
Additionally, a failure in the printer’s main board could trigger this error code. It is recommended to reset the printer by turning it off, disconnecting the power cord, and waiting for a couple of minutes before reconnecting and turning it back on. If the error persists, contacting Epson support for professional assessment and repair is advisable.
Lastly, this error can also be caused by a disconnection in the cable or FFC. Ensure that all cables and connections are securely in place and not damaged. If any issues are found, try reconnecting or replacing the cables as necessary.
Remember, it is always recommended to consult the printer’s user manual or contact Epson customer support for accurate troubleshooting guidance specific to your printer model and error code.
