Error Light Troubleshooting Codes
The status light indicates the current state of the scanner. Descriptions of the most common
patterns are listed below. Contact Xerox Technical Support if you experience a different blinking
pattern.
Normal Operation
• Blinking blue: indicates the scanner is waking up from power saving and preparing to scan.
• Steady blue: indicates the scanner is ready to scan.
• Steady red: indicates that the scanner is busy.
Error Codes
If your scanner experiences hardware problems, the status light will blink red, and the LED
flashes an “E” then the error code number.
In all cases you should turn off the scanner and check the scanner setup. Verify the scanner lock
is in the unlocked position, and that the computer and scanner are plugged into a working
electrical outlet.

4 The scanner is not communi-
cating with the computer.
If the USB cable is plugged into a USB hub, try plugging the
USB cable directly to the back of the computer. If the USB
cable is already plugged to the computer, try another USB
port on the computer. If the problem persists, replace the
USB cable. The maximum length of the USB cable is 6 feet.
5 The lamp in the scanner body
has malfunctioned.
This usually occurs if the power was disconnected during a
scan. Turn the scanner off, then back on again. If the prob-
lem persists, turn off the scanner, re-start the computer, then
turn the scanner on.
9 Scanner is locked. Make sure the scanner lock is in the unlocked position before
the scanner’s power is turned on. See the illustration on page
7 for the location of the lock.
