Share this conversation Expert: Richard replied5 years ago. Hi. I am Rick. I will be your expert. THe 0502 error code indicates that the encoder strip has lost its connection THe steps below should fix it for you.1. Remove the power cord from the unit.2. Lift the lid of the unit, just below the http://www.justanswer.com/printers/4jg1k-printer-hardware-error-0502-dell-a940-printer.html scanner portion of the All-In-One, to expose the inside of the unit where the printer cartridges are located.3. Gently slide the ink cartridge carrier to the middle of the printer.4. Gently move the top part of the printer belt to the right.5. Using an index finger, gently push encoder strip down and then back up to get it back into the slot located on the back of the ink cartridge carrier.NOTE: There is a small slot that the encoder strip fits into, which is going to be located on the back of the ink cartridge carrier.6. Gently press the strip first to the rear and then forward to ensure that it is seated correctly.7. Manually move the ink cartridge carrier to the left, then to the right to check the positioning of the encoder strip.8. Once the encoder strip has been re-seated, close the lid to the unit.9. Re-connect the power supply to the All-In-One.10. Press the Power button. If the encoder strip was re-seated correctly, the Hardware Error: 502 code will not appear.

Restart the computer which should clear the print buffer. Uninstall the Dell A490 through the Dell AIO A490 uninstall. Restart the computer. Install the Dell AIO A490.Restart again. It worked for me. Good luck. - Anonymous 2 I'm having exactly the same problem, as in getting the c50 error message. I also have refilled my cartridges a few times, but for me it seems to be the color one causing problems. Maybe Dell has something going on so it can detect the same cartridge going in over and over and does that so you have to buy a new one? Tempted to just buy a new printer that I can purchase cartridges for locally, instead of having to order them, I hate ordering them!! by smiley_face2 on Dec 13, 2005 at 7:14pm Add comment Please sign in to comment 1 thanks for the reply....that's what I was thinking about doing, replacing the tops. The black tops are a lot harder to get off, they are glued all the way round.

I'm sure there is some good hacker worth his salt out there that
