Print head temperature rise error or Error Code 5200

Error 5200 and Error P08 are same.. Remove your catridge for few minutes and replace ...

Hello Hellen,
the error P08 is error for abnormal temperature in print head. Aa possible cause the ink cartridge is faulty and needs to be replaced.The same error description is for 5200 on your PC.

I recommend that you try to replace ink cartrigde under warranty in store where you bought it. If after that you still have error, take the printer to the service center because they logic board ( pcb ) is faulty.

Hope that helps!

It seems the print head temperature exceeding the specified value. Replace the Ink cartridge. If problem not solved, replace the logic board.
