This means a printer motor error has occured. From the service manual: C developing disengaging motor rotation error.

To fix:

Developing disengaging motor
error
1 Reconnect the connectors J16 for the developing disengaging motor and J1100 for the DC controller PCB.
2 Replace the developing disengaging drive assembly.
3 Replace the DC controller PCB. Calibrate the printer after replacing the DC controller.

So, at the very least you'll need the developing disengaging drive assembly and, if that doesn't fix it, then you'll need the DC controller board. My bet is the DC controller has failed.

Sorry for the bad news, but please rate this solution as fixya even if it wasn't what you wanted to hear. Thanks.

For those users who are having a problem with the printer motor, this C level problem is referred to as 'developing disengaging motor rotation error'. Most likely, this problem points to an issue with the function of the DC controller: either it has failed or it has affected the developing disengaging assembly. The solution is quite simple and the user may fix the error in a matter of few steps. The first step is to reconnect the J16 connectors that are used for the developing disengaging motor to the J1100 connectors that are used for the DC controller PCB (that is the printer circuit board of the DC controller). After connecting these two connectors to each other, the user must replace the developing disengaging drive assembly directly. The final step is to replace the DC controller PCB, after which the printer is to be recalibrated. get more help for Printer Error Code 59 C0

Hp color laserjet code 59.fo error

All the book says is that one of the motors had a problem.
Power it off for at least 30 seconds. Power back on.
Make sure you are not using a surge protector.
Put the power cord directly into the wall outlet.

I just checked the manual for another printer and the 59.f0
could be the ITB. Make sure that it is seated correctly. If you have
a spare install it and see if problem goes away.

Error 59 co in 5550DN

Hello thanks for using fixya

59 C0 error code usually affects the printer motor. The problem can range from a couple of issues that occur within the printer's motor. It can also be a cartridge issue. Depending on the printer and which manual the user is referring to, the solution to fix this error varies.
  1. Error code 59 C0 due to problems with printer motor
  2. Error code 59 C0 due to problems with cartridges
  3. Error code 59 C0 due to broken back sliding lock

Error code 59 C0 due to problems with printer motor:
This is referred to as "developing disengaging motor rotation error" Most likely, this problem points to an issue with the function of the DC controller either it has failed or it has affected the developing disengaging assembly.The solution is quite simple and you may fix the error in a matter of few steps.
The first step is to reconnect the J16 connectors that are used for the developing disengaging motor to the J1100 connectors that are used for the DC controller PCB (that is the printer circuit board of the DC controller).After connecting these two connectors to each other,you must replace the developing disengaging drive assembly directly.The final step is to replace the DC controller PCB, after which the printer is to be recalibrated.

Error code 59 C0 due to problems with cartridges:
Another more complex problem that leads to the 59 C0 error code is a problem with the cartridges.You must first remove all the printer cartridges in order to view the right swing guide. Once these have been removed, you must check for certain parts in the printer, which mostly resemble upside-down. If you finds that the swing guide does not move all the way backwards,then the most likely problem is a missing plastic component of the swing guide. This part also resembles an upside-down T.

Error code 59 C0 due to broken back sliding lock
Another problem that may cause the error to display is when the black sliding lock is broken out of place or missing its spring. If any of these cases, you must replace the swing guide completely. You should attempt to locate the missing piece within the printer so that it does not cause further problems in it. If the swing guide does function properly, then gently close the door, paying close attention to the right side of the printer's swing arm.If the right side swing arm closes in the same manner as the left side swing arm, then your printer is functioning just fine and you may simply need to turn it off to fix the error.If the right swing arm does not close properly, then the machine should be serviced by a professional to fix the problem.
