Stop printing if the same fault returns after one careful restart or basic recovery step.

0x610000D3 - The printer detected a printer-system fault and needs a restart before anything else.

The printer detected a printer-system fault and needs a restart before anything else.

This guide is scoped to the PageWide 300 / 400 / 500 series family. Exact menu wording, cartridge naming, and service behavior can still vary by model variant and firmware.

Severity

High

Most likely cause

The print system hit an internal fault during startup or job processing.

Can you keep using it?

Usually no - see below

Consumables involved

Not usually the first suspect

Contact customer support if any of these apply

  • !0x610000D3 returns immediately after restart.
  • !The printer never reaches ready or repeats the same printer-failure state.
If the printer still starts normally: Try one careful restart or the first official recovery step, then stop if the same error comes back straight away.

What to check first

Step-by-step checks

  1. 1

    Safe first step

    Turn the printer off and back on once to see whether the fault clears cleanly.

    Start with the official recovery step before moving on to parts or deeper servicing.

  2. 2

    Consumable check

    Check for obvious paper-path issues before retrying any queued job.

  3. 3

    Safe first step

    If the printer recovers, test with a simple one-page print only.

Background

What this message usually means

HP uses 0x610000D3 for a PageWide printer-failure state where the print system cannot continue safely. Like the other 0x610000xx failure codes, it is not a routine paper or cartridge warning, so the safest first response is to restart and stop if the printer cannot recover to a ready state.

Diagnosis

Likely causes

Most common

The print system hit an internal fault during startup or job processing.

Common

A mechanism or paper-path issue prevented the printer from clearing the fault state.

Possible

The printer firmware resumed into a repeated hardware error state.

Service

When service or replacement is more likely

  • -The safest assumption is that this is a print-system fault first, not a minor consumables problem.
  • -Do not keep resending print jobs into a device that remains in a printer-failure state.
