Canon pixma mp140 reset tool

Take out both cartridges. Close the cover. Connect the power cable once again. Turn the printer on. Now just put the cartridges back…. Hey, I have a MP and ive already searched ur blog and i did find a reset for it. However i only get a service mode. I have read all the problems and hope one might solve my Pixma MP problem. I put new cartridges in and keep being told the ink absorber is full.

Hey, I tried this once and it didnt work. I then reread the directions and tried again, slightly different timing on the hold, press, release etc… and it worked. So my advice is to read it again and try again. I have a connon mp printer the fine catridges and after refill when inserted says the ink level is low.

I tried holding the reset button and tried your steps bu it wont work. I was scanning Color negatives using MP Navigator and when it finished a scan, it would scan any more. I Scanned a document and it worked fine. Could the scanning bulb be burned out? First, the instructions on all these forums to get into service mode are slightly wrong. With printer off, but connected to power supply: 1.

Now all the instructions say to press resume 4 times then power to confirm resetting some counter, then power off and on again. I did this a few times, and nothing really came of it. I then selected a random document and told it to print. It said something along the lines of being out of ink. Now hold reset for about 5 seconds. You should get a message saying that the ink levels will no longer be monitored or something similar. Give it a try, it might work for you!

Error code 6A00 for MP Turn off power. Manually slide ink unit all the way to the left. Use a flashlight to look at the bottom right side where the ink unit usually hides. Use a pen or a small screwdriver to prod a little in that area that bottom. In my case by prodding around, something that apparently was stuck, became unstuck. This is the best I can do describing the operation. Thank You. Hi, none of that worked for MP However there is a way. My printer showed E5 after a refill.

Start with printer off 2. When first connected the printer worked. Slowly over a year I began to have problems. Next was no information: no job showed in print queue and often the printer would print page after page of a job I wanted to cancel.

Tried: 1 resetting using directions found online ; 2 unplugging printer and reconnecting; and 3 restarting the computer. Now the print job is actually showing in the queue, but still—no printing. A few blank sheets sort of coughed their way out. Any assistance would be so appreciated!! Tried doing what you said for the MP with no success. Am going to another website to find the answer.

Then i found your post and yay! Who the hell invented this? I attempted to print a page, it came out blank. I tried another page and nothing happended. Checked my MP and it was off, as in no power. Is it dead or can I reset. Can you advise me as to what to do.

If you have a blank page, is for a burn fuse in the circuit board; as close as the flex cable for the ink cartidge. Excuse my poor english. Hi there. Thanks and greetings…..

I have a MP I have tried all your tricks to get it to recognise a refilled cartridge but none of them worked- sorry!! How I overcame it was to bite the bullet and buy new reset cartridges. The secret is, never remove them again!! You have to refill them in situ. The only problem is that the pink well is covered by the plastic frame.

Turn off the power, making sure that the cartridges are in their park position — far right. This will allow you to access the pink well with your refill needle. Keep an eye on the printing quality and refill before they get empty. Good luck. And in future always buy genuine cartridges, as the reconditioned ones are a false economy.
