For the Error 03130031-2F13 you need to check the following 1. Check for abnormal carriage drive load a. Faulty carriage idler pulley (broken spring hook, dropped belt teeth) b. Faulty linear encoder sensor ( soiled or flawed linear encoder, or improper mounting position / tension ) c. Soiled carriage rail ( unlock the purge unit and move it by hand) * Never oil the carriage rail!!! d. Improper carriage belt tension e. Foreign matter inside the rail (cutter, cleaning brush, bearing out of position) f. also clean the nozzle`s of the cartridge(Use a cotton and small amount of alcohol)

Canon imagePROGRAF iPF Hardware Error 03130031-2F1F

Hardware error 03130031-2F1F is the purge sensor error. Good news, the service manual says this one is an easy fix.

What The Code Means

For those that want to know, the 2F1F error means the recovery system has been driven but no sensor interrupt occurs. The recovery system has been driven to close the cap, but the cap has not been capped successfully.

The Fix

A simple reboot should do the trick. Before doing anything, please ensure there is nothing preventing the carriage from properly docking on the right side. To do this, lift the upper cover and observe. Improper power cycles can cause much larger problems.

Once you are certain there are no obstructions, power down the printer. Please wait a few moments before turning the power back on.

If the error clears, congratulations, you are good. If the error comes back, you have a few options.

Option 1

Repairing the printer is the favored option when it costs less than replacement. We do recommend having any repairs completed by a Canon Authorized Service Technician. In our experience, this option has the highest success rate.

We recommend finding an independent servicer for models that are no longer supported by Canon. Only as a last resort should you attempt making the repair yourself.

Make sure the power supply has been disconnected before attempting any repairs on your own. Electronic devices are capable of causing injury, death, or further damage to the printer. We strongly recommend hiring a professional If you are not experienced with electronics.

ProPrinting Systems may be available for service or parts.

Option 2

If the reboot did not work, this could be a very costly repair. The reason; you have to blindly start replacing parts that may not need to be replaced, but they have to be ruled out. You may quickly find yourself spending more to repair an old printer than you would spend to buy a new printer (and get a new warranty).

In case you didn't know, newer computers and operating systems may not support older printer models. That means the next time you buy a computer, it may not work with your old, but newly repaired printer.

What's next?

If you have additional questions, would like to speak to a customer service representative or a service technician, contact us.

We also offer a remote service agreement that allows a technician to diagnose printer problems and errors as if they were standing right in front of it. For more information on the Digital Service Agreement (DSA) please click the image to the right.

2F1F isn't my error code!

If 2F1F is not the error code displayed on your screen, please see our blog post that lists all the possible 03133310 error codes so you can learn more about your specific error.

Happy weekend!!
