Hi i have just bought a Canon W8200 wide format printer but i cant get my pc to talk to the printer. I posted a question yesterday and was told to download the canon utility. I got a little bit further on the driver install as the w8200 came up in a "add printer" window. when i used the utility program i had to re-input the ip,subnet mask and g/w default back in to the printer menu. I did a ping on ip,subnet mask and g/w default which test ok, but the ip that printer is set to, i get timed out messages. i have tried all combinations of crossover cable and normal ethernet cable. i have tried direct from pc to printer and through a netgear wireless router with both cables. any more ideas? thanks in advance

You'll probably need to replace the whole printhead. It's a bit of a job on that machine

SOURCE: waste ink is full how to clear this message
a) How to enter Service mode
Follow the procedure below to enter Service mode.
1) Turn off the printer.
2) Turn on the printer while holding down the [Paper Source] button and [Online]
button.
3) Check that "Canon W8200" is shown on the display, and then release the buttons.
4) Next, "SERVICE MODE" is shown on the display. (If sheets are inserted, this will
be displayed after the sheets are loaded.)
5) Use the [Lower arrow] button to make a selection.
Service mode is added to the options in the Main menu.
Service mode can be entered even during error status (when Exxxx and Wxxxx are
shown on the display) by turning the power off and then using the above key
operation.
b) How to exit Service mode
To exit Service mode, turn off the printer.
c) Buttons used in Service mode
• Selecting menus and parameters: [Left arrow] button or [right arrow] button
• Entering a lower-level menu: [Lower arrow] button
• Entering a higher-level menu: [Upper arrow] button
• Setting menus and parameters: [Enter] button
Now under service mode select counter, and select printer and W-INK to reset it, and under initialize select W-INK.
But also change the waste ink absorber so that you do not get waterfalls of ink from your plotter :-)
Hope that helps
