Canon MP F50 "wrong cartridge" error
remove all cartridges leaving printhead intact.
close cover, turn off
turn on, let power up, error message should be gone.
open cover, reinstall cartridges
if you cleaned your print head like I did you'll probly
eventually end up getting a new one anyway, due to the color variations
but I can at least print text.
While printing photos my printer has white vertical lines
Sounds like you need to re-align the print cartridge . The reason the text comes out ok is probably because it is only using the black cartridge for text. The color cartridge is the one that's out of alignment. You may have some sort of Cannon utility running in the task bar that will allow you to easily allign the print cartridges. If not, go to the main "Printers and Faxes" window, RIGHT-click on the printer and select "Properties". You should be able to find a button in the properties that's labeled something like re-align print cartridges. It will print out a series of test pages and ask you to select the set of lines that looks the straightest and type it in. It's a good idea to do this every time you replace a cartrige. Hope this helps, If I was able to FixYa, please remember to rate me. Thanks.
Paper jam error, will only print envelope.
I will try a reset
Press on/off button for 1 second to turn off printer
Wait 15 seconds and press on/off button again
If the reset did not work
Try to do a couple of ROLLER CLEANING
Some lines are blurred, Some lines are printed larger, Some lines
Normal
0
Driver could be corrupt.
Disconnect the printer or at least be sure it is turned off.
I'd do both and reinstall the CD software program that came with
the printer. When the software program asks you to connect the
printer to the USB port, do so and it should again work properly.
Hope this helps. Bud
Displayshows wrongcartridge
says wrong cartridge, but i changes them, even looked the cartridgea up on the internet to make sure they were compatiable with my printer, they are and it still says wrong cartridges
Having trouble repairing/removing software...
if it does not uninstall, delete the program file,and clean out the
registry,if you don't know how,get registry mechanic,it is the best for people who don't know what there doing. Once this is done you can reinstall, if the program folder will not delete try in safe mode to delete. Now check the MFG website to make your software drivers
are made for the OS your running,,XP,vista, if your running vista and the soft is for xp, just go to programs in the control folder and there is
a compatibility program for xp software to run on vista.
Canon Multipass F30 not printing
Did you remove the tab that covers the cartridge head where the ink comes out, if the drivers and software that you loaded on your pc work
good and your printer shows under device MGR, then it is the printer
itself,,most times you can not see how much ink in the cart,,,most are sealed,,,just try to put the cart in again and make sure it is locked in good,,try running the cleaning program with pc,,make sure the right
cart is in the right spot, bl in one spot and color in a spot.
