Canon Pixma Ip5000 - Printhead Died?

[Roy Sletcher]

Gentlemen,

Thank you ALL for your kind assistance. Unplugging did not help. In the end, I removed the right side of the printer and EASILY turned the nylon gears. SOMEHOW, that released the printhead and I was able to get my ink cartridges out. SADLY, it did not fix the problem, though.
I delivered the printer to a recycling center yesterday.

Evidence from randomized clinical trials indicates that, on average, clinicians achieve a reliable change–that is, a difference not attributable to chance, maturation, or measurement error–with approximately 50% of people treated. For the most effective therapists, it’s about 70%. Said another way, all of us fail between 30-50% of the time.
