I have a Cannon Pixma MP160 printer. on/off light keep blinking and a code 1 stays there. Also message reads that the printer is performing another duty if i try to print. At one time the number 3 and E with the alarm light staying on.
This some times works.
Also if you are using the Refillable ink cartilages stop they always cause major issues
1) With the printer powered off but connected to a power source, press the Power button while pressing and holding
the Stop/ Reset button.
2) When the Power is lit, press the Stop/Reset button two times while pressing and holding the Power button.
3) When releasing the Power button and the Stop / Reset button (regardless of order), the printer will move into a
service mode. (Waiting for menu selection)
4) When the on/off lights in green, press the Stop/Reset button the specified number of time(s) according to the
function listed in the table below.(Each time the Stop/Reset button is pressed, the LED lights alternately in
orange and green, starting with orange.)Note: press 4 times for waste ink counter reset.
The number of the Reset

5) Turn off the printer.(it must be turn off)
