Canon PIXMA  iP4300 InkJet Photo Printer Logo
Posted on Oct 30, 2007

CD printing About 85% of the time when I try to print on a CD, an error message comes up saying "The inner cover is open. Remove tray and close inner cover and resume." Of COURSE the inner cover is open - because I am trying to print on a CD in the CD-tray. I have done everything I can - in page setup I change to format for the ip4300, which indicates that it will print to the CD tray. In the printer setup I make sure that Quality and Media options are set to printable disc (recommended), to load from the CD tray. I don't see what else I can do! Please help!

Actually, I found a solution - someone suggested saving the CD print file as a PDF and printing from that, and that's helped.

There is a small,square button near the right,front corner. think of it as the button for the refrigerator light. It must be depressed by the closed top or maybe something to wedge it down. Duh

CLOSE THE INNER COVER

I should have added that the extra plastic insert thing that comes with the CD holder is used when you want to print on the smaller 8cm disks.

CD printing error 'inner cover is open'

Reset the device when it is not functioning properly. If the device is not functioning properly or to clear memory, reset it.
  1. On the operator panel, press and hold the <ON/OFF> button for one second. (The display will go blank.)

    Note: It may be necessary to unplug the power cord if pressing the ON/OFF button does not shut off the printer.

  2. Wait approximately ten seconds and then press the <ON/OFF> button again.

  3. Wait until the device has completed its cycling process before submitting another job request.

Hi, please try reseating the print head.

*Confirm that the printer is powered on.

Note: Gently open the paper output tray while holding it.

*After confirming that the print head holder has moved to the center, open the inner cover.

*Remove all ink tanks.

*Raise the print head lock lever and remove the print head.

*Re-seat the print head into the print head holder and lower the print head lock lever until a click is heard.

*Insert the appropriate ink tank into the slot at the right end and push down on the PUSH mark on top of the ink tank until a click is heard. Install the other ink tanks in the same manner.

*Close the inner cover and top cover.
Note: Check that each ink tank is installed in the correct position.

If issue still present call your printer manufacturer for service.

Cd tray error Canon Pixma MP810

Sorry a little late only just read your problem.
The location is not the bottom tray feeder but the disk tray. In settings change your media type to "Printable Disk" the paper scource should automatically change to "Disk Tray" and hopefully every thing will work OK.
