What is C59.C0 error? How to overcome it?

[Hawks_Eye]

Hi @Wizards01 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! We're here to help you get back up and running.

The 59.C0 error on your HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283fdw typically indicates a Developer Motor Rotation Error—meaning the printer is having trouble rotating the internal motor that drives toner distribution.

Here’s how to troubleshoot it:

🛠️ Step-by-Step Fix for 59.C0 Error

1. Power Cycle and Toner Check

• Turn off the printer and unplug it from the wall.
• Remove all toner cartridges.
• Power the printer back on without any cartridges.
• Then insert one cartridge at a time, closing the access door after each.
• If the error reappears after inserting a specific cartridge, that one may be faulty.

2. Inspect Toner Cartridges

• Make sure all cartridges are HP OEM and not third-party or refilled.
• Check for any jammed or seized drums—a stuck cartridge can trigger the error.

3. Update Firmware

• Visit the HP M283fdw support page and install the latest firmware.
• Use a USB connection if the printer isn’t responding over Wi-Fi.

4. Reset the Printer

• Press and hold the Cancel + Wireless buttons together for 20 seconds.
• This may trigger a deeper reset and clear internal error states.
