Why Does the E-01 Error Appear on Epson Printers?

How to Fix Error E-01 Step by Step

Once we know what reasons could cause the E-01 error, the first thing to do is check the status of both the cartridges and the paper to identify where the problem is.

Check the Status of the Ink Cartridges

First of all, make sure that all the cartridges in your Epson printer have ink and, if one is empty, remove it and change it for a new one. Also clean the cartridge chip with a soft cloth and some cotton. Remember to be very careful to prevent alcohol from getting into the cartridge.

Check for a Paper Jam

As stated by Epson, it checks for a paper jam, and if so, removes the jammed paper from inside the printer. To do this, open the cover, remove all the paper inside (including torn pieces), close the cover again, and also check for jammed paper near the output tray. If the E-01 error continues to appear, turn the printer over, pull out the outdoor unit, and carefully remove any jammed paper before putting it back in place. Now, fully pull out the paper cassette, remove the cover, and remove the jammed paper (if any).

To avoid future paper jams, always try to keep it smooth (never wrinkled or curled), make sure it is quality paper and that the printable side is face down in the cassettes. It is also advisable to let it air out a bit before loading it into the printer .

Perform a Complete Cleaning of the Printer

If after checking the ink cartridges and solving a possible paper jam the error E-01 has not disappeared, clean the printer carefully, especially the rollers through which the paper passes, in case there is any lint or other dirt that is preventing its normal operation.
