Have you tryed resetting to factory defaults

The yellow ink is finished or it's dry. You must clean it with hot water or to change it with another new one.

Hi,

How do you know its working? Did you check your ink levels? Try checking it, your ink may have finished. Also try printing a test page. If it still doesn't work, try reinstalling your print cartridges.

you need to reinstall the printer drivers. These should have come on a cd with the printer.

you need to replace the whole printer head because the black pump has gone bad

Open the printer, use oil in spray for machines ( WD40 ) as shown in picture below

Hi,

Have you tried removing the print head and washing it?

I would only do this as a last resort but it has worked for some people. Here are the instructions:

1) Removed the black and color cartridges
2) Raised the grey lever and tilted the print head towards you (towards the front of the printer)
3) Soaked in hot (not boiling) water for 10 minutes.
4) Rinse in cold water
5) Shake out as much water as possible
6) Lay on a towel and place in a warm location (laundry cupboard) for 24 hours to dry out
7) When dry replace in printer

If this helps then please rate my answer.

Many thanks,

Chris

You can download the driver from Canon's website. Here is a link that should take you directly to the download page:
http://software.canon-europe.com/software/0035868_0010001.asp?model=

Switch off the printer and disconnect from the power supply. Leave for 10 minutes and then try powering up again from cold. If you are still getting flashing lights please count the number of each flash and repost

usally the covers snap in. you may have broken the hinge by mistake. see it you can repair it, if not call a qualified technician.

I got the same problem. I researched and found out it's the print head, you know the thing that moves side to side that releases the ink onto the paper. You either have to replace the print head( which costs around $50.00) or buy a print head cleaning kit because it might have dried ink in it. Hope this works for you( the kit didn't work for me, had to get a new print head)

I have the same problem and haven't yet got an answer!

Since the flashing led indicates various kind of problems (depending on the number of flashes 1-9), I suggest to download from this official link the file that is at the line numbered 60, near the end of the page - 60.Printer User Guide for Windows users - Download the file i560_PUG_EN and save it at your pc. After the download finish, run it. It will be extracted in a folder named Canon at the same folder that you saved the i560_PUG_EN. Open the Canon folder and run the file named "top". A new browser window will appear with the full user manual and toubleshooting guide for your printer.

In case of a problem or clarification or further details needed, don't hesitate to post me a reply before rejecting my answer.
If you are satisfied, accept my solution.

Thanks and regards

According to Canon 7 orange flashes indicates a print head fault. Solution they recommend is to take it to one of their service agents. Problem is that replacement print heads are not cheap and it is usually more economical to replace the printer. You could try taking the print head to a cartridge refiller and have it professionally cleaned (cost you nothing or next to nothing) and see if that solves the problem.

Reset the printer .
1.Turn the printer off with the Power button (if available).
2.Disconnect the data cable from the printer.
3.Unplug the printer's power cord for approximately 10 minutes, and then plug it back in.

If resetting the printer does not work, please attempt the next solution-->
