My machine won't even turn on now

The printer was working fine. Then I got a message saying to "check the printer" and push the "ok" button. I also noticed that the ink tanks showed that they were full when I know that there are two that are nearly empty so something is wrong there for sure. When I lifted the top of the machine to check the ink tanks they did not centre as they should. I tried pushing the "ok" button several times but nothing happened. I then tried to print something and I got a message on my computer to push the "ok" button. Still nothing happened and then the machine just shut off and now won't start up.

i'd recommend that you get some fresh drivers, as they can go corrupted over time...look here for that link

SOURCE: error code: U150 The following ink tank cannon be recognized (Cyan)

U150 ink error fixed!

I too was getting the error for unrecognized ink cartridge. Then the little green circ board fell out of the end of the ink cartridge and it hit me that maybe if I put in the little green circ board from the old ink cartridge of the same color, then maybe the ink cartridge would be recognized. It worked! So don't throw out an ink cartridge that still has ink just because of that error and hold onto your empty cartridges in case you need the little green/gold circ boards.

This works!

SOURCE: "used ink tank is full"???

OK, Boys and Girls...here finally is the complete answer to the problem of the waste ink tank counter reset for Canon i250 and i350 printers.

1. Disconnect printer from AC power (take out AC cord or power off your power strip). Disconnect USB PC cable from printer.
2. Press and HOLD the POWER button (untill step 7).
3. Reconnect power cord (turn on power) to the printer.
4. The indicator should be green.
5. Press and release the RESUME button , the indicator should be orange.
6. Press and release the RESUME button again, the indicator should be green.
7. NOW Release POWER buttons.
8. NOW Connect the printer to PC (USB cable).
9. NOW...I opened "Printers" and saw that a "copy" of my printer (i250 or i350) had been made. Make that COPY your default printer and all should work...It did for me.

You May Thank Me NOW!!!!

I must say...I went into the "GUTS" of the beast and cleaned out the PADS (they are actually vacuum pads that the INK is sucked through during a HEAD cleaning) a very messy undertaking.
I'm not sure how much life this will add to your printer.

Good Luck

SOURCE: Display shows "check printhead"

Hello Neil, If the quality of print is fine then i dont think there is a problem with your printer head. It must be some error with the software or some other part in ur printer. Do check the printer for some other faults.

How to erase messages

Push the delete button. It will say "to delete all messages push delete" Push it again. Then it will say "all old messages have been deleted." Sometimes it is a pain because the button isn't great and won't work and you have to start again. You can't delete messages without having to listen to them though even if you just start. If you begin to listen you can push delete and it will delete it and move on.

On my Manifica which is about 5 years old I get the message that the ground is too fine and to adjust it when I am trying to froth the milk. I have cleaned it, adjusted it , taken all the beans out and it...

Hi


A grind that is too fine will result in your espresso being too bitter. Rinse between shots because the infuser clogs easily with black espresso muck. Not rinsing will cause the machine to shut down with a message that the "grind is too fine".
Try removing the beans from the hopper and use a vacuum to CLEAR/REMOVE any grounds and then adjust the grinder 4 clicks clockwise. Try turning the grinding regulator 1 click clockwise and see if that works.If not try inserting the water spout press the ok button and then run water a few seconds.
If you remove the water tank too early while it is making coffee it will display that message as well.

Please get back to us if you have further query else please accept the suggestion.
Thank you for contacting fixya.com

Saeco vienna saying brewunit blocked !

Hi There is a test mode for the Digital and we can see if you have a bad power board. Turn the machine off in back. Push and hold the small coffee button and the menu button (top left) at the same time and while you are holding the buttons turn the machine on. Release the buttons and you should have numbers in the display. If you can push the bottom left button and the machine makes a sound like the motor is moving, turn it off and then back on. If you don't get the message now you should really clean and lube your brew unit.
