The error 033007 on the Epson XP-15000 typically indicates a failure in the main board, specifically an inability of the printer to write to the ROM chip where firmware and configurations are stored. This can be a challenging issue, but here are some steps you can take to possibly resolve it:

Detailed Steps to Troubleshoot Error 033007

• Initial Power Reset: Start by powering off the printer using the Epson button, then unplug it from the power source. Allow the printer to sit unplugged for at least 24 hours. This can help reset the internal memory and potentially clear the error. If the error persists, leaving it unplugged for a longer period might be beneficial.
• Environmental Considerations: If you use XP-15000 for DTF, most people set the room moisture to be above 50%. Although it's great for the printhead, it may not be good to the mainboard. Most of 033007 will go away after you restart the printer and the mainboard heats up, but if yours consistently having 033007 problem, you may need professional help.
• Technical Inspection: If you are comfortable with technical tasks, consider inspecting the printer's internals:
  • Check and Clean Connections: Carefully remove the printer cover and inspect all cables, especially those connected to the main board. Look for any loose connections or signs of moisture that could affect functionality.
  • Clean with Caution: Use a dry, soft cloth to gently clean any dust or ink residue from the connections. Avoid using liquids that could cause further damage.
