I was also having the same problem with my canon printer. I called canon tech support at toll free number- 1-800-585-2494. for more information you can visit: Canon Customer service hope this will help you better.
SOURCE: Using the Canon PIXMA MP240 printer wirelessly
In order to do this, the laptops have to be able to communicate with each other wirelessly. I.e., you have to have a wireless network set up. If you do, then you are "printer sharing", using one laptop as the 'printer server' (with the printer connected to it) and the other as the 'client'. Step by step instructions are available at this link. Type "printer sharing" in the search box in the center of the screen and click on the Search button. Select the option that matches your requirements.
SOURCE: Will the canon pixma mp240 continue to print
you need to have both cartridges somewhat full to run, there is a initialization routine that the printer goes thru and if you don't have good cartridges with ink it won't let you print.
