Fast checks
- Remove paper jams; fan the stack and reload under the max mark.
- Confirm ink tank caps are closed and levels are above the lower line.
- Power off, wait one minute, power on and watch the blink code again.
- Run a nozzle check from the Epson Utilities; clean only if gaps appear.
- Update or reinstall Epson drivers if the PC reports a false offline/error state.

Prevention tips
Use supported paper weights and store reams dry. Keep tank caps closed. Place the L3250 on a stable surface—vibration causes feed errors that look like hardware faults. Separate network issues from blink codes by printing a panel demo page first.
