Canon PC-850 E001 Error Code

Hi,

We have a Canon PC-850 with an E001 Error Code that comes up upon turning on power. The copier then shuts off shortly after displaying the error code. Any advice appreciated. Thank you.

E001 Fixed

I entered service mode and it fixed itself.
With the front panel open and the copier lid/carriage lifted up, I used a paperclip and stuck it in the small hole on the front grey panel (DC controller) and simultaneously used a pen to hold down the tab in the slot on the lower left edge that makes the copier think the lid is down. It reset the error code and all is OK now.
