What Does HP DesignJet Error 86:01 Mean?
Error 86:01 indicates a problem with the carriage movement system. This usually happens when the carriage (which holds the printhead) can’t move smoothly across the plotter. Common causes include:
Worn or frayed carriage belt
Dust or debris in the carriage path
Dry or dirty carriage rail
Broken carriage motor or sensor
Obstruction inside the plotter
Lack of maintenance or lubrication
Ignoring this error can lead to further damage to the printer and result in costly downtime. That’s why we recommend addressing it as soon as it appears.
