Thanks for the help guys, I owe you a beer or two ;) Luckily enough I have found for cheap another second hand MP610 with broken Logic board that I can use as a donor for the scanner. Please don't tell me that a damaged logic board could have damaged the scanner also... :hide The number of...

I just bought a second hand MP610 in working condition. It has been shipped to my house but the scanner glass broke during transport. I am wondering if I can replace the glass with a new one or should I buy the complete scanner part of the printer Anyone has ever did it? I have at home a...

The MP610 has just arrived but the scanner glass broke during transport. Anyone knows if I can change myself the glass with another one? I will open another thread for this

Unfortunately you are absolutely right! :thumbsup

Update: I bought two second hand printers in working condition, an IP5300 and an MP610. They don't share the same printhead as the IP4300 but at least can continue using PGI-5/CLI-8 cartridges and should have a slightly better quality and be faster They have just been shipped, will let you...

I already knew the trick but "Repetita Iuvant". ;) The drawback, apart the very low speed as PeterBJ says, is that there is no draft quality mode available (only Standard and Best) so the printer will dampen too much the paper and printing on each side will be a little messy. In scenario 1, I...

What about a second-hand IP5300? It uses the same cartridges

Last update: the second second-hand MP800 that I bought impulsively is about to arrive at home. Later today I will know if I will be lucky or if I got another expensive Knick-Knack :barnie By the way, I am wondering if, to track the attempts to fix it and avoiding mixing topics, will be better...

It is in working condition, and if I not find other, it will replace my 4300. From a review I just found http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2231488,00.asp it seems a more expensive ip4300 clone

I just found an used IP4500. It seems it uses the same carts as 4300. Someone has any experience on it? Is is as good as 4300?

@Łukasz Thank you for the Help I am buying it from a regular user. Can I assume that this printer has both the head and the board damaged? In this case I will buy it just for the Ac Adapter to test the broken MP600 I was given for free (without AC adapter)

I received further information about the error of the broken MP600 that I am going to buy: For first it shows the B200 error (The VH output is not normal. - Print head (QY6-0061) - Logic board ass'y (QM3-0250)), then the 5010 error (Scanner home position error). 1) Which is the fault when two...

Hi all, just found a broken mp600 for few €. Error 5010: on the manual says "scanner position error" so the scanner unit should be changed. Is it correct ? somewhere else I found that could be board also (gives for first error b200 and then error 5010) but found no confirmation on Service...

Thank you for your suggestion, i read it only after my last post. So now we have a fourth option also :thumbsup: 4) Buy a new printhead from ebay

The Pro-100, apart from the price, is oversized for my needs. I print mostly B&W A4 docs, some color docs, very few photos (I prefer to use a service) and CD\DVD printing is also required. Also I don't print daily, but every now and then (maximum of 30 pages\month) I already bought an used...

I quitted with the idea of swapping printheads, is too risky. The same person I'll wait to find a working second hand IP4300 to buy. Do you have any advice about a newer similar Canon model that uses cartridges "easy" to refill? In the meanwhile I will resume the attempts to clean the...

Thanks for the help, really appreciated. I read the thread linked by Peter BJ too late unfortunately, I already bought the printer (luckily for few bucks). It seems that I am trowing money out of the window given that most likely is a board fault. I will discover it when I'll receive it. I am...

Hi all, I need an advice. In my quest for an head replacement I found an used MP800 on sale for spare parts. The issue is that the power doesn't turn on anymore. I was told that It happened suddenly after that the printer was turned down while it was doibng an automatic cleaning cycle. From...

I agree with PeterBJ. By the way, which carts are you using? OEM? OEM or after market refilled? Could it be that there is a leak somewhere? Is the fine line always in the same position?
