The first thing that did when I had that problem with a Pixma that I had for years was to go to Internet site for Canon, select my model, download the latest set of drivers, and install them. That took care of the problem.

Hi there

You need a program that you can use on your PC with this program you scan it to your PC and then print it out, ok you need a program like art or photo or paint or some thing like this that have a scan in it.

Read more below.
The best program to put on your Pc is what I use and it is Free you, it is called PagePluse SE, you should try it you can do all sort of things with it but there no scan on it, just scan your photos to the your pc with another program witch has scan on it and put them in the SE program and you can do any size you wont and after adding text to it or backgrounds you can send it to the printer and print, an other program I use for scanning from the printer to the PC is called PainShop Pro 7 witch is a old program there newer ones out now but I am happy just using the old one it does the trick.

The Free version is Called PagePluse SE you not need the version 9.

Ok here the link to download the PagePluse SE program and it not a free trial it a free, there is one you can Buy but this is all you need download the free one it just as good.

Click Link = http://www.freeserifsoftware.com/software/pageplus/index.asp

SOURCE: My pixma mx300 shows 5100 error message, and I

Hi You can Try 2 things.

ERROR 5100 means that there is some foreign object blocking your cartridges carriage that disables it from moving. Generally when this happens, something has fallen into the printer, or a piece of paper has been jammed in there.

First step, remove the ink cartridge, and turn the printer upside down and gently shake it, see if anything comes out.

If nothing goes, or you can't hear anything rattling around, get a piece of cardstock paper (60lb or heavier) and gently push this through the printer, to see if it will help push out what might be stuck in there



Next try.

It may be a piece of paper or a scotch tape or a staple wire.
Solution 1:
Clean the timing strip.

Solution 2:
The purge cap (the white sliding mechanism that the print head parks to when it's not in use) may be not lubricated well enough .

Lubricate the sliders with some white grease (don't get it on the small wipers or the black caps); this repair probably require to remove the right panel off of the printer to gain access to the purge mechanism.


Please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one so I will keep on helping.

Unable to scan or copy. Getting "please wait awhile" notice

First try shutting down the printer using the off button. Then turn it back on. If this doesn't work then abruptly turn it off by pulling the plug from the wall and plug back in to the wall socket and turn on the printer.

I have a c8100 all in one printer/scanner/copier The machine wont scan as it comes up with a message saying that the TMA tray is not located properly. I have been useing it to scan photo prints and it...

Dear Sir/Madam
Thank you very much for your mail,I wont need the plan you offered,however I will tell you how I solved the problem.

I went into the HP solution centre,on the bottom right hand side of the menu list there is a spanner shown indicating settings.
I opened that item,pressed scan settings,there are various options available,these you can add of take away from the printer scan menu.
I added picture to mail & picture to file pressed OK,and they both appeared on the main printer menu.

The problem was solved,and the scanner worked correctly from that point.

Regards D.S.
