Error message printer canon mp 270 - Canon MP270 All-In-One InkJet Printer

SOURCE: canon mp 150 error 5

Our pixma MP150 printer has a flashing E and flashing 5, also flashing on alarm, black ink and color ink. We have replaced the ink cartridges but nothing happens. They were empty. The printer doesnt recognize that the cartridges are there. We have tried unplugging the cords and taking the cartridges out and putting them in again. Also, it wont scan a thing either. ITs likes its frozen in the error. What can we do to fix this?

That error is telling you that the ink absorber inside is full. You need a shop to replace that because you need to use Canon diagnostics to reset the error code.

I have had problems with this printer, too. See my Amazon review here:

(Mine is the second one down).

The Canon MP270 does seem to have a few problems. It's not one of Canon's finest products, to say the least. It seems to be getting a reputation for problems, problems...

I gave up and bought a HP Deskjet printer instead. I know that's not a fix, but I found it was the best solution!

Welcome to Fixya.

Please try the following steps to resolve this problem - this same procedure worked for my colleague :

• Power off printer
• Hold down STOP/RESET button then Press and Hold down Power button
• Keep Power button down and Release STOP/RESET button
• Push STOP/RESET button twice
• let go of power button
• Wait 20-30 seconds - my display shows "canon Idle"
• Then Push STOP/RESET button four times
• Push Power button twice
• Power off (shut printer down)
• Wait for at least 5 seconds and power it back on
