I have a Canon Pixma MP 780 printer that won't print or copy... Error message #6400. I've tried to clear it, but the alarm light keeps flashing - no response. Opened it up and checked for jams, etc. Can you help? Thanks.
Flashing led lights indicate the printer is malfunctioning so we can mostly rule out pc issues. Does the carriage for cartridges roll to left as if ready to install cartridge when you open up the unit. Try this. If it wont it is most likely jammed in avery small way. My own printer did this. It turned out my little 2 yr old decided to play post the tiny piece of cardboard, and after diagnosing for 2 hours, error messages and all i found the tiniest jammed carboard piece with a set of tweezers right in the end near the cartrigde carriage, between the teeth of the paper roller and the carriage. You could get lucky and have the same issue. Also make sure all print jobs are cancelled, and check is drivers and device is actually functioning ok, go to control panel, performance and maintenance, system, hardware, devices, scroll down to your printer, and make sure no yellow exclamation marks appear.

You should try it with a high speed usb interface .if you have already a high speed usb interface then you should insatall teh driver of usb first. Other ways you need to reinstall the printer again . or you can try with change the cartriedge .
