My printer canon mx328 error 6000

Canon Printer Error Code 6000 is one of the typical errors that occur very frequently. It happens while users are attempting to print all of the printer's documents. The problem of Paper Jam is the main cause of this mistake.

Canon Printer Error Code 6000 refers to something in the printer that interferes with the movement of the carriage. In any case, I've been able to locate the problem: a piece of torn paper on the left side of the printer. Hard to get there However it's likely. The printer is running again! But often this is induced by a software error. Foreign objects, such as dust spores, pieces of paper, sticks, stickers, or other objects, block the proper opening of the paper feed tray. Due to the jam, the printer has an error of 6000.

Reasons for Canon printer error code 6000: The printer feed tray is wrongly fitted. A huge volume of documents next to the printer. The line feed is scratched or coated. Offer several print commands on paper at once. Faults in the sensor unit or in-line feed slit.
