    Canon Pixma MP620

    Glad to say printer error seemed to have gone away, got printer online and printed about 20 pages yesterday using wireless setting without problems. Printed my 3 month energy bill this morning (ouch) fine. Thanks again for all the interest and assistance from various members.

Now being told printer is offline, when it patently is not. tried a LAN cable as well but no difference. If I try and print an e-mail says printer...

    Canon Pixma MP620

    The video gives a very clear indication as to what is going on. However this is shown with the older clear carts, how do you apply these parameters to the clear tank/opaque carts?. I have 2 top fill both the blacks the rest the German method. This I prefer because I can see when full. With the...

    Canon Pixma MP620

    Amazing clarity, yes I have a mark in that area but not circular but of irregular shape, perhaps some has come off although cleaning did not make any difference to the shape. but it obviously had nothing to do with my 5100 error subject of my original post. Hopefully now cured.

    Canon Pixma MP620

    Thanks for all that information duly noted. Video very informative but with black tanks not so easy to establish what state you are at but weighing might help.I had selected this refill method because of this the method recommended by one of our senior members, who has done hundreds of refills...

    Random google search of error 5100 which included a you tube video.most of the many suggestions covered the ones we know about, paper debris, reset ink carts etc. However my ink monitoring system seems to have become unreliable because it was showing yellow with the yellow warning triangle. I...

    I fear I've killed my Pixma IP4950

    You could also try the well tested and popular method of a Household paper towel folded in 4 put into a small container (I use old food containers) soak the folded pad with Windex and gently push the head up and down and also cover the screen you are trying to unblock with more Windex and see...

    MB Navigator EX 2.0

    Thanks for the Canon/Canada link. Have downloaded and saved the file but I noted it was for Windows 7 and I believe Windows is using 8.1 for the current set up. As I have been all through my LAN settings and printer is working fine for now I am quite happy to use a USB cable for the relatively...

    MB Navigator EX 2.0

    Tried both suggestions the file one was just what I was looking for but when I arrived at the file to delete, the folder was empty. The second one I am sure is correct in reference to ports but his suggestion produced nothing for me. However your own comment to use a USB connection proved the...

It was working fine but now is displaying the same scanner driver error. I did see a You tube video which showed selecting...

    Great video Stratman like others original stated not available in your region but the latest one you posted worked fine. I must admit I know very little about 3D printing but there seems to be a veritable stream of objects being made which are helping a lot of people
