Jammed color cartridge Cannon IP90 - left side snapped in, right side hung up on rail

I fumbled the cartridge inserting it; so, the snap side (left) won't release but the right side is hung up on the rail.

Unfortunately the only things I can say are to either try to (carefully) wrestle it out, or take it to a retail or repair shop. And they would just be doing the same thing. There's no magic answer, you just have to find a way to pull it out and try to get it lined up better next time.

    As a Canon warranty facility I can assure you the only thing we would do is force it out as well. Worse case you damage the ink cartridge but it isn't likely.

SOURCE: Cannon Pixma MP500 - Waste Ink Reset

I don't belive there is a reset device for the MP500 tanks. However, when you get the empty error message, just follow the instructions about pressing OK as many times as it asks for (I think it is four time). At that point, you can continue to use the cartridges. The printer will no longer keep track of the ink level. You will have to do that yourself. But, you can continue to use the printer with all colors.

SOURCE: Canon IP90 portable . No ink printing.

Have you performed a nozzle test? If one or more of the colors is missing when you do the nozzle test, the printhead itself is likely in need of replacement.

Before considering replacment, perform a clean on the printer. Due to variations between mac and pc, please see your documentation / support files on how to perform the clean on your printer.

After performing the clean, again perform the nozzle check to see if the problem is resolved.

If still not resolved, remove and re-install any cartridges you recently replaced to make certain they are installed correctly.

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

Scanner says it is lock, but it isn't

I had the same problem. The scanner car is stuck on the travel rail. Disconnect the scanner and remove the top. Turn over and remove 4 screws holding top to bopttom body. Turn right side up and push in very hard on the lower riight side of body to release snap in holding top to bottom. There are four snaps, one at each corner of scanner. Do the two rear snaps next. Then the left front should slip off. Unfold top toward front so as not to pull butoon wires out of track in bottom body. Clean 1/4" rail at rear of scanner and apply small amount of vaseline. Move car by turning gears at left rear to get to all of the rail. Reassemble. Happy scanning.

HP PRINTER

Hi, the HP 49 is a color cartridge, it goes on the left cradle, the other cartridge, maybe a HP 29 goes in the right cradle if you have a HP Deskjet 600 series (This goes from 610 to 692).

Prints without any errors but no ink on the paper.

if you have new print head assembly and cartridges, and waited for flow, and the printer is MECHANICALLY sound (not dropped or G-force damaged), then all that is left is improper cartridge installation. You may not have the cartridges fully inserted/, or maybe they are not PROPERLY inserted. Look for a snap when in place (and no wiggle). I suspect this is your problem, because one symptom you mention, ink accumulation INSIDE the head/cartridge cradle, is VERY rare -unless the cartridge is inserted improperly. The cartridges/head assemblies have VERY good seals to prevent leakage. Unless the o-rings/seals are damaged, leakage outside the seal just does not happen at all, normally.

*New head/cartridge installs can take several hours -sometimes even a day in cold weather, for small iP90-like printers to saturate the heads -and print.
