This indicates you have low toner. Take toner cartridge out and shake it a few times horizontally and replace toner cartridge back in. This will fix the problem temporarily until you get a replacement toner. You will get about 100 copies of so by shaking cartridge.

Canon printer light blinking error is a common error. Each printer features a flashing light to indicate its functionality. With Canon printers, you have flashing green and orange lights to inform you of any existing problems. It is suggested to carefully observe the number of flashes or the pattern of blinking lights as this will help you to understand the problem. And depending on the pattern, you can follow our canon printer troubleshooting guide mentioned below to solve that issue.

Draw the developnent of lateral surface of pentagonal pyramid of base side 30mm and axis height 60mm

You need 5 isosceles triangles with a base of 30 mm. To get the height of the triangles (perpendicular to the 30 mm bases) you need to calculate the apothem of the pentagon (assumed to be regular).

If you cut the pyramid by a plane passing through its apex, the center of the base-pentagon,and the midpoint of one side, the plane figure created by the three points (apex, center, and midpoint) is a right triangle. The legs are the apothem, and the altitude of the pyramid. The hypotenuse is the slant height of the pyramid, and is thus the height of the triangles in the development. pyramid (60 mm) form.
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find that slant height.
s^2=a^2+h^2.

I have conon mx 868 but i have got error message 6502 and 150 how can i solve the problem?

Here are instructions:

The MPTool is designed for service works with the printer Canon MP-Series
when in Low-Level mode. This is NOT the same as "service mode"

Currently supported for
MP150, MP160, MP170, MP180, MP450, MP460. MP150, MP160, MP170, MP180, MP450, MP460.

To activate LOW LEVEL mode:

1. Unplug the power cord to the printer for a moment.

2. Then, hold down the on/off button while plugging in the power cord. Keep holding the on/off button down.

Sometimes the Canon printers which use PG-5BK/CL-8 colour cartridges with chips will give error mesaages like 6502 or other types of error meaasge to do with the cartridges, which has the orange light flashing and the printer will not work. Follow this procedure which quite often resets the printer and allows it to resume printing.

When error is indicated, turn power switch off so green light is extinguished.

First hold down resume button and then hold down power button so both are held down at same time

When green light comes on, continue holding down power button and let resume button go, then press resume button twice. Then let power button go.

Then press resume button four times, power button should be releasedbefore doing this.

Wait until printer settles down, if power is off, turn on. If power will not come on, remove power cord from back of printer, then wait 15 seconds before plugging back in again and turn power on. This normally solves the error problem - if not go through same procedure again.

Incidentally, you may find that if the chips had previously been disabled,the low ink warnings are showing againand they will have to be disabled once more. This would indicate that the above procedure clears the firmware memory of the disabling of the chips, this may be usefull if you need some warranty work done on you printer after the chips had been disabled. Canon does warn that disabling the chips may result in the printer's warranty being voided

Need help in drawing a pyramid in microsoft poewerpoint .it should look like a maslow's hierachy pyramid

Assuming you want the triangle segmented, first, insert an Isosceles Triangle from the Basic Shapes list on the home screen for the top of the pyramid. Then, for the lower sections, use the Flowchart:Manual Operation symbol and flip it upside down. You'll need to play with the sizes a bit to get the look you want, but it shouldn't take too long.

I have a HP LaserJet 1320n printer and it will not print. An orange light keeps flashing by the triangle with an exclamation point in it. I printed a test page and it was okay. It will not print...

Possible Solution to your issue!

Blinking Attention Light HP LaserJet 1320 Series Printer - The printer displays an orange blinking attention light which will not clear. This usually indicates one of the following issues have occurred. Perform the following in the order provided to troubleshoot and resolve the issue.
1. Insufficient power. Disconnect the power cord from any surge protectors or power strips and plug the unit directly into an electrical wall outlet.
2. There is a paper jam in the printer.
3. The top cover is open. Open the top cover, reseat the print cartridge, and close the top cover, making certain it is shut properly.
4. No paper was loaded in tray 2 or the tray was not loaded properly causing a mispick. Perform the following steps to load tray 2.
A. Pull the tray out of the printer and remove any paper.
B. Move the blue side width guide outward to match the paper size that is being loaded. Locate the blue guide pointer on the left side of the tray. If using a letter-size (8.5 by 11 inch) paper, match the guide point with the LTR/LGL engraving located on the bottom, left-side of the lift plate.
C. Locate the blue tab on the rear paper-length guide. Locate the triangle-shaped pointer in the middle-right on the bottom of the tray. Press on the blue tab and adjust it so that the triangle-shaped pointer matches the paper size that is being loaded. If using letter-size (8.5 by 11 inch) paper, match the triangle-shaped pointer with the LTR engraving on the bottom of the tray.
D. Place the paper in the tray and make sure that it is flat at all four corners. Keep the paper below the height down arrows on the paper-length guide in the rear of the tray.
E. Slide the tray back in the printer.
5. The tray 2 paper level indicator is stuck.
6. If the printer comes back to a Ready state, print a Self-Test/Configuration page. If the printer is not in a Ready state, proceed to step 7.
A. Verify the printer is in a Ready state. (The green LED next to the U-shaped icon is on steady and no other lights are on.)
B. Press down on the green GO button until the orange Attention light comes on (approximately 5 seconds), and then immediately release the GO button. The green GO button will begin to blink and a Self-Test/Configuration page will print.
7. If the attention light is still on, perform a cold reset. A cold reset, sets most, but not all, default variables stored in NVRAM back to the factory default values. It typically does not reset the page count, paper tray sizes, localization language, or formatter number. Complete the following to perform a cold reset.
A. Turn the printer off.
B. Press and hold down the green GO button.
C. Turn the printer on and continue to hold the green GO button for at least 5 seconds, but not longer than 15 seconds. During the process, the Attention LED will turn on.
D. Release the GO button.
NOTE: If both the Attention light and the Ready LEDs turn on before the GO button is released, the cold reset procedure must be started over at step 1.
E. The printer LEDs begin cycling. The cold reset process runs until completion and the printer returns to the Ready state
