Canon PIXMA iP90v Printer Questions & Answers
Printer does not work
If the printer is fine then the problem should be in your computer. Therefore, i suggest reinstalling the printer driver and after that you should be able to print normally.
Why does the paper jam and a loud noise come from the iP90 printer?
Most likelt to be a foreign object or wad of paper crammed into part of the paper feed roller. The first thing to do is turn it upside down and give a few sharp solid taps on the bottom casing. Then check to see if anything falls out. Also check the leading edge of the paper that didnt go through for marks that might show where it was stopped. If you are sure there is nothing to stop paper feeding through, check at each end of the print head path inside for a clump of ink soaked paper - remove if found. Try feeding a sheet through again. If the paper doesnt feed, try slipping a thin stiff card or plastic sheet back through the feed mechanism from the front. If that doesnt go through, you will have to disassemble the printer to find the problem.
Printer will not print.
Fixing annoying little issues with these machines is difficult due to the compact design. I would hazard a guess that there is either a paper jam due to a paper fragment or foreign object obstructing the paper feed, or there is a fragment inside obstructing the printhead. To remove the first - turn it upside down and give a few GENTLE whacks on the bum. If anything substantial falls out, try printing. To tackle the second open the cover and let the printhead come to centre (you should take it off battery for this), then check each end of the cavity looking for a black ink soaked peice of paper. If you find one, remove it and go looking again. If neither approach works for you, try carefully feeding a strip of light card at intervals through the paper path, this will help locate anything caught in the feed roller. Good Luck.
Printing blank pages
Options:
1: the cartridges have run out. They are quite small and will give 40 to 50 pages of text or 10 to 15 pages with colour. You might be lucky to get a couple of photos of a full set of cartridges. Take them out and feel the weight - if they feel really light they will be empty.
2: the print head has dried out. Take it out of the printer, wash it in warm water (just water) and dry it with a paper kitchen towel. Replace it and try again.
How do I change the print head for
With the machine powered up, open the transparent cover. The cartridge/printhead assembly will slip to the centre. Remove the cartridges and then move the printhead slightly left until you can lift the locking gate holding it down. Remove the printhead and fit the new one. You will need to get a QY6-0052 printhead.

IP90v printer wont print
If the message is that your battery is dead - it needs to be recharged. You should have a cable with a transformer and plug to connect the printer to mains power. The same cable will plug in to the battery to recharge it. There are very few machines that draw power from a computer or laptop.
Colors not matching computer
It is possible your colour cartridge has cross contaminated the ink reservoirs. To check this take the colour cartridge out and turn it over to see the coloured pads. They should look red, dark blue, and orange ( the colours are actually Magenta, Cyan, and Yellow, but are concentrated). If any of the pads are pale or particularly green - change the cartridge.
If the colours look alright, your issue is probably that your monitor makes colour by emitting light frequencies so is bright, printed images make colour by absorbing light frequencies so will always be darker. There is always the issue of course that your monitor also has a colour "temperature" bias. Photo pros calibrate their monitors and printers to match.

Service error 5200
check cartridge clean cartridge contacts or carriage problem (clean decode strip)
My printer has come up
The 5C00 code is for purge cam sensor error meaning an error occurred in the purge unit. You can remove the purge assembly and clean out all the ink covering the moving parts. You can clean it with isopropyl alcohol or just water. If no luck, replace the purge unit, will be around $30.
I have a Canon Pixma
Sounds like it is either the power supply or the board.
Try disconnecting the power supply (unplug the printer) for about 5 minutes. Reconnect and turn it on. If this works it will probably not be a long term fix. Sounds like your in for a new printer or power supply for it soon. Did you have a electric outage recently? Or power surge?
