DELL C1760NW ERROR CODE 009-654
Searched high and low. Seen this code come up on other printers but the solutions do not apply for the C1760NW.
Turned on and off. Turned off and on. Followed steps for other models only to get so far as the next stage isn't applicable and therefore it cannot be tested.
Is there anything that can be done on this for me to test and others who have this problem find this thread and also find a solution?

This doesn't work with my Mac either. Is it only a PC solution?
I've tried physically cleaning the sensors at the back and reinstalling any drivers yet this doesn't work. My printer is less than 3 years old so this is extremely frustrating.

First of all, its nothing like LED. I have questions, How deep should i clean (how deep should i put the cotton stick)? Should i clean from the sides in that hole? Is the sensor on the bottom or the top? Could you tell all that from the beginning?

Hello,
I had the same error code on my C1765nfw - did the ADC clean, downloaded the update, nothing helped. I was asked to provide the serial number of the toner cartridge, and the service tag number.
I could not find a serial number on the cartridge - and Dell told me that since my printer was out of warranty, the error code meant I just needed to replace the printer.
However - tada!! - I kept trying different cartridges. When I got the empty cartridge message, I changed the settings - menu>system>admin>maintenance>Non-Dell Toner>On.
It is now printing again, and in color as well as B/W!!
I am so glad I kept working on this!

Hi, i have tried your fix but, the printer keeps saying not ready, so i have been unable to download the latest firmware.
Any other solutions would be great.

Hi,
Reinstalled the Firmware; cleaned the sensor; rebooted several times. Anyone can help? Thanks in advance.

Well I my dell C1660W had this error code. I did the firmware update, changed cartridges, and cleaned the **bleep** sensors. It flickered back to life to for a second to get 1 print job done and then error again. Then I saw a method for C1760W that I thought couldn't work earlier but at this point it was going to get tossed so didn't care. Put printer on floor. Flipped it on its side with cartridge side up. Picked it up 2 inches and dropped it. Repeated a couple of times. Plugged it back in AND IT MFIN WORKED!!! Code was gone!!! I printed couple 100 sheets already and fine. The Russian type repair worked!!!

Old thread but just wanted to say BFDUMMY isn't nuts. I did the same thing in the end after exhausting all other options (did firmware upgrade, put original Dell cartridges in, cleaned everything I could get to, used CE mode to clear NVRAM etc. etc.) It was fit for the bin so thought what the heck. Didn't work first couple of times, third time I got a horrible mechanical noise when switching it on, so I turned it over and dropped the other way hoping to reseat whatever was stuck. Turned it on and got the "Calibrating...." message, it emptied the remaining magenta and yellow doing cycles of this. I replaced those and hey presto I have a working printer (for now) So as mad as it may seem if you get to the "it's going in the bin" stage do give this a try - make sure to drop onto an old blanket, duvet, newspapers etc that you can throw away as toner is likely to come out of the printer. I'm using non original cartridges and now it's working I've set it back to non Dell toner mode in the settings. HTH.

Where specifically are the sensors and what is exactly do they look like?

@BFDUMMY @sph71 WTFFFF, Russian style does work!!! Folks I cleaned all possible things that could be sensor (honestly dont know what is the sensor), flipped it up down, left right, drop drop, and VOILLAA Mon Ami, it is now working. Dell should update their trouble shooting.

I came here to say this too. This method actually worked, OMG... I tried cleaning the sensor, changing toner, updating the firmware, all methods failed. Did the below fix (put printer on floor with toner side facing up, and drop it from a couple of inches a couple of times). Knocked some sense back into the printer.
EDIT: My printer is Dell E525W instead of C1760NW, but I think it's similar model.
