Solution 3 (thanks to a1224imac):

  • This same error started occurring on my printer and eventually it would constantly power on and off. 
  • Apparently some defective components were used in the construction of the logic board (see photo). 
  • On my C6180 there were 3 failed capacitors (the green cylinders - the puffed top indicates failure) and a 4th from the same manufacturer (TEAPO - many unfavorable web references to this manufacturer). 
  • I purchased 3x 330uF 16V and 1x 680uF 10v rated to 105 degrees Celsius (total about 60cents). 
  • On the logic board, the capacitors I replaced are labeled C613, C614, C660 and C662. 
  • If you are not comfortable replacing the parts yourself (or don't have a soldering tool), you will have to find someone who will. The time to repair should be less than 30 min - I did it in 25 min with only a solder pen. This also fixed the ink system failures the printer was having. A similar fix may apply to other printers.
