1. Touch OK to clear the error. If the error
is not cleared, turn the device off, and
then turn the device on.
2. For a 41.2 error, check the laser/
scanner wire harness connectors from
the scanner to the dc controller. If the

scanner. See
Laser/scanner
on page 340.
For a 41.8 error, check the fuser wire

49.XXXXX ERROR To continue turn off
then on
A critical firmware error has occurred.
This type of error can be caused by invalid
print commands, corrupt data, or invalid
firmware operations.
NOTE In many cases, turning the
power off and then on will
permanently clear most 49 errors.
In some instances, electrical noise in the
cable can corrupt data during transmission to
the device. Other causes include poor-quality
USB cables, poor connections, or specific
software programs.
Sometimes, the formatter is at fault, which is
usually indicated by a 79 Error message.
1. Turn the MFP off, and then turn the MFP
on.
NOTE Turning the power off
and then on will clear most 49
errors.
2. Upgrade the firmware.
3. Try printing a job from a different
software program. If the job prints, go
back to the first program and try printing
a different file. If the message appears
