Canon PIXMA  iP4300 InkJet Photo Printer Logo
Posted on Oct 11, 2007

Saying no paper,. even when it's fully loaded & wont print.

I've recently bought only a couple of months or so ago (around June time) a Canon Pixma IP4300 & up until now I've been absolutely mega impressed with the printer ... however I used the printer the other day to print out a sheet, perfectly fine, switched it off as normal, closed everything etc..

 

It's not been touched since & today I'vwe just opened up the printer to print out a letter & it keeps saying "Paper Needed" .. even though I've put the paper in, it's just NOT grabbing it.

 

I'm really angry at the moment because I've only just bought this printer & I have important documents (I bought this printer for a reason) that have deadlines & things to meet & I don't have a lot of money either, so please help me as soon as possible in regards to this.

 

No matter what I do, it's just saying "No Paper" ... you can hear the noise of the printer moving when you press resume but it just says constantly "No Paper" all the time, it's not grabbing the paper.

 

Please get back to me as soon as possible about this as again, I'm really really upset about this right now, if anyone has any ideas that would be very much appreciated !!!!

 

Thanks in advance & hope to hear from you VERY soon.

 

Regards

Robbie

    I'm having the same problem.

    I'm having the same problem here too. I've got two ip4200's and they both do it. One thing that works sometimes better than other times, is to clean the paper feed rollers. You do this by taking all paper out of the machine, then press the center button that flashes orange when somethings is wrong, and hold it until the power button flashes three times then release the button. The printer will act like it's feeding paper and it'll make a lot of noise and go through the cycle maybe ten times before it stops. The manual says to do that twice without any paper in it, then do it again with paper as many times as it takes before it feeds three sheets in a row without screwing up.



    I'm also only having problems with certain papers and not others. Good luck. Also, sometimes turning the printer off then back on will fix stuff too.

I just thought i had the same problem... but you know how there are 2 buttons on the front of the printer once the paper output tray is down? the bottom of those 2 i think switches it back and forth between paper feeding from the normal, top spot, and from somewhere else, so you can try pushing that button! worked for me!

Canon MX860 prints crooked!

Does this happen when printing from the cassette (bottom tray), or the sheet feeder in the back, or both? Check that the paper guides are set snugly (touching but not buckling the paper) against the edges of the paper.

Canon pixma 3100 keeps saying load paper and won't print

If you have paper in the loading tray and it keeps giving you out of paper message then the sensor by the loading hopper is not working and would need to be replaced.

9 times out of ten though you might want to clean the printer and make sure the hopper is not just jammed this happens when you put too much paper in there at one given time.


thanks

Paper won't load. and Stops printing before it can start.

Try turning the paper around. Some times the corners of the paper get slightly bent and the paper wont load.If turning the paper around does not work, switch your paper. Hope this helps.
