I have a triangle error symbol in the lower right hand side of my printer, it has a lightning bolt inside of the symbol........what does this mean?

Canon printer light blinking error is a common error. Each printer features a flashing light to indicate its functionality. With Canon printers, you have flashing green and orange lights to inform you of any existing problems. It is suggested to carefully observe the number of flashes or the pattern of blinking lights as this will help you to understand the problem. And depending on the pattern, you can follow our canon printer troubleshooting guide mentioned below to solve that issue.

Have a Canon MP830. in the middle of printing, it came up with error code 6A00, and now all it does is flash the alarm light and copy light. how to fix?

http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_mp_series/pixma_mp830#BrochuresAndManuals

I would download the manual for windows 7 and see if the 'alarm and copy light flash' error is listed. I could not find it referred to in the support area of the canonusa.com website. Also, you could call 1-800-OK CANON and talk to a rep. about this problem.

Good luck on this repair.

Receiving error code 6A00, and alarm light is

That error says the purge unit is broken. You will need to have the purge assembly replaced.
It's # QM2-3032-000 but a shop should replace it for you.
