Cannon Ip4300 - Orange light flashes on printer.

There is many reasons for that,
are you printing any thing???

Just restart the printed and see if lights turned off....

Orange light flashes if there is any issue with the printer. Please check all the hardware is functioning properly. Check if there is any paper jam. If printer cartridge is installed properly. Printing head is ok.

I am also having this problem, would love someone to give us a solution before I through it out the window.....

to know what your printer wants to say,
just go to "start menu" then click on "printers and faxes", and "right click" on the certain icon of the model of your printer....then click on "maintenance tab" and click on "printer status"...then you will see the problem of your printer........

That is a "general" error.
Please note that the power LED is flashing you a message (blinking green and / or orange).
Like green 3 times.... or green/orange
Please comment what the light is doing...
Or go to canon and view the possibilities:

These printers are FULL of very sensitive sensors, and chances are that one of them may have a small piece of paper blocking them. If you can get the covers off by finding the "Triangle" arrow markers, you can inspect all these sensors.

Good luck!!!

Start with the printer OFF

1. Hold down RESUME and then hold down POWER
2. Release RESUME
3. Press RESUME twice, then release POWER
4. Let green light blink until printer is done futzing

Select function with RESUME press POWER to execute:
presses - light color - function

Number of presses - light color - function
0 presses - green - Test print (or exit service mode on i960)
1 press - orange - EEPROM info print (plus grid nozzle diagnostic on i850)
2 presses - green - EEPROM initialize
3 presses - orange - Reset waste ink counter

Hi Hooboo

There is Canon Pixma ip4300 resetting software available on the net.

canon i960 -three flashing orange lights (paper jam error) but no paper is jammed. The print cartridge will not slide to center either-- I have tried to get the printer into service mode, but cannot get there because the orange lights never stop flashing.
