OKI C5200n Laser Printer

Communication Error

posted by marycog on Dec 11, 2007


I have been using my OKI 5200 for a long time. Today it decided to show a message in the display that says "Communication Error". It won't let me do anything. The Menu, cancel, and all other buttons do not respond. I rebooted my computer and the printer. I removed and reinstalled all toner cartridges and drum. Oki Data's help manual does not refer to this error in their troubleshooting pages. Any and all help would be appreciated.

Disconnect from pc, restart printer on it own, same prob then will need firmware reinstalled, hard drive replaced or even main controller, Job for a tec.

Works ok alone then driver issue delete and reinstall driver check cable too.
