If it turns orange, it only means that the flash will be used. Green is when the flash will not be used.

Do you get an orange light?

Hope this helps!

What does service error 5C00 indicate?

Waste Ink Counter Reset due to residual ink in the ink docking station only resolution apart from replacing the printer.

Service Mode: This printer has a service mode for service-related settings and for performing test prints. The operator panel buttons are used to enter the desired service mode.


With the printer powered off (but still plunged in), hold down the "Resume Button" and press the "Power Button" and hold them both down.

While holding down the "Power Button", release the "Resume Button" and then press and release the "Resume Button" twice.
Now release the "Power Button".

The indicator light should blink in green and the printer will make some noises.
You know you are in service mode if the green light stops flashing and stays green.

Select one of the following service mode functions by pressing the "Resume Button" the specified number of times listed below.
Each time you press the "Resume Button" the light will change color to let you know the button was pressed.

1 time = Service test print.
2 times = EEPROM information print.
3 times = EEPROM initialization
(4 times = Waste ink counter resetting)
5 times = Destination settings
6 times = Print head deep cleaning

Then press the "Power Button" one time to perform selected function.

If you press the "Power Button" two times it will take you out of service mode.

To Re-iterate :
You have to be pushing down on the resume button or the printer will just turn on when you press the power button.

Startin over.
Hold down the Resume Button then press the Power Button and hold them both down. The light between the buttons should come on green but the printer should not turn on. If the printer turns on at this point the printer does not recognize that the Resume Button is being pressed.

While still holding the Power Button down release the Resume Button and press it again twice. At this point the green light should change colors each time the Resume Button was pressed.

Then release the Power Button and you should be in service mode.
Once in service mode if you press the power button without first pressing the resume button the printer will turn off

Focusing Still Photos with SD870 IS

If you check page 45 in the manual, you'll see that the orange light during the half press indicates that the flash is turned on. A single beep means that the camera is having difficulty getting a "focus lock" (usually when shooting in low light conditions). See page 100 of the manual for suggestions on how to improve the chances for getting a well-focused picture.

Why doesn't the shutter button on my EasyShare digital camera work?

The cause and solution may include one of the following: The camera is not turned on. Turn on the camera. The camera is processing a picture; the camera Power ring light (on the Mode dial) blinks green. Wait until the light stops blinking before taking another picture. The card or internal memory is full. Transfer pictures to the computer, delete pictures from the camera, switch storage locations, or insert a memory card with available memory. The shutter button was not pressed. Depress the shutter button completely down. There was a failure in the focus and/or exposure. Press the shutter button halfway to set the Auto Focus (AF) and Auto Exposure (AE). When the AF/AE indicator turns green, press the shutter button completely down. The battery is exhausted.

Picture too light

The cause and solution may include one of the following: The flash is not needed. Change to Flash Off or decrease the flash compensation in any of the PASMC modes (certain cameras only). The subject was too close for flash. Move so that the distance between you and the subject is within the effective flash range. There is too much light. Decrease the exposure compensation. If you use flash, adjust the flash compensation in any of the PASMC modes (certain cameras only). Auto-exposure was not set. Press the shutter button halfway and hold. When the AF/AE indicator turns green, press the shutter button completely down to take the picture (most cameras).
