Optional Information: Computer OS: Windows Vista Already Tried: turning oget to the off the printer and on again to get to the main menue so i can each the tool menue but it keeps going back to a scanner error has occurred please see your documentation
Does the error show on the computer or printer?
yes the error show up on the printer when i turn it on, first it come on the regular way then it shows the scanner error message 20second after turning on
Ok unfortunately that means either the lamp or the scanner mechanism has failed and needs to be replaced. The lamp is what lights up the image as it is being scanned. The scanner mechanism is the bar that moves across the glass platen under the page to capture the image. If the machine is under a year old both would be covered by your warranty. Unfortunately if not fixing this can actually sometimes cost more than replacing the mahcine itself as it sometimes requires replacing the logic board.
