Error code FUSER-ERROR on the Canon Canon imageCLASS MF269dw II Wireless Duplex Mono Laser All-in-One Printer means: Fuser Error — Fuser Unit Malfunction. The fuser unit is malfunctioning — it is not reaching the required temperature, is overheating, or has failed. The fuser uses heated rollers to permanently bond toner powder to the paper. Signs of fuser problems include: toner that smears or rubs off the page when touched, wrinkled/creased output, paper curling excessively, or image offset/ghosting. The fuser is a consumable component with a typical lifespan of 50,000-100,000 pages depending on the model. If the fuser error appears immediately at startup, try powering off the printer for 30 minutes to allow the thermal components to cool and reset. The fuser unit is user-replaceable on most imageCLASS models — it slides out after releasing retention levers inside the printer. Use only the Canon-specified replacement fuser.
