Can my Pixma MG2920 printer scan if there are no ink cartridges installed?

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi elbertf2,
The printer will need to have both ink cartridges installed in order to scan, even if they are low or out of ink.  You can disable the ink level detection function of the printer so that you can continue scanning until you are able to replace the ink cartridges. To do this, please press and hold down the STOP/RESET or RESUME/CANCEL button on the printer for at least 7 seconds, then release it.  You will need to do this procedure for each ink cartridge that is low or out of ink.  Once the ink cartridges are replaced with Canon genuine ink cartridges, the ink level detection function of the printer will be re-enabled.
Hope thie helps!

  • Can the Pixma iP8720 print on 230 gsm 61 lb paper?

    Can the Pixma iP8720 printer feed & print 230gsm/61 lb 8.5x11 paper without rejecting or jamming? Been using this paper to print photo covers for soft cover photo books on an Epson WF 30. I need a better printer and I'm 99% committed to buying this Canon Pixma iP8720 if it can print on this heavy paper.Thanks, Russ 

    Hi brassman, The PIXMA iP8720 can use plain paper that is 17 to 28 lb (64 to 105 g /m2) (except for Canon genuine paper), and non-Canon genuine specialty paper that is up to 53 lb (200 g /m2).  We do not recommend using paper that is lighter or heavier than these paper weights in the printer, as they may jam or do damage to the printer. For printers that can handle up to 61 lb paper, we recommend our Professional Photo InkJet Printers.  These printers can handle up to 93 lb (350 g / m2) when using the manual feed tray of the printer. Hope this helps!

  • I recently updated my computer to 10.6 and now I can't get my printer MX340 (canon ) to work. I have installed the new drivers both from Canon's website and from an earlier post directly from apples website. I would surely appreciate some help with this.

    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

    Hello MartyTheArtist,
    May I know  you installed Basic Print Driver or Full Feature Software?
    I am not holding 7110 printer but I have access officejet 6700 and Photosmart 7510.
    Anyway, you should able to see the similar print options if you did install full feature software.
    When you print, under the print advance options, there is an option  called. "HP Real life Technologies".  You may on this option  and it will "automatically remove redeye in photographs and to automatically adjust high-contrast photos to reveal details that are otherwise lost in shadows. I have attached the screen shot for your reference."

    I am an amteur photographer and personally, I do prefer to do post processing jobs in Photoshop first and then use the printer just to print by choosing the apporopirate photopaper and using Best Mode.
    May be you might have differnet preferences way of doing it. I am just sharing my way of printing photos
    By the way, when you install Full Feature Software, you have the option to install HP Photo Creation Software which is very simple and easy to create greeting cards, photo books and many other things. Maybe you might give it a try if you have not tried.
    Kindly let us know if you have more queries
    Cheers,

  • My printer is showing there is an ink problem or printhead is missing

    My printer is showing there is an ink problem or printhead is missing or not detected. I've replaced the ink cartridges. 

    Hello @Mdguz and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I can see you're experiencing ink system issues.  I would like to try and help.
    I would recommend removing the ink cartridges from the printer, and performing a power reset.   Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    Another suggestion would be to plug the printer power into a different wall outlet.
    I would recommend updating your firmware as well:
    HP Officejet 6700 Premium e-All-in-One Firmware
    I would then suggest utilizing this document on A 'Missing or Failed Printhead' Error Message Displays on the Printer or on the Computer.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

    On my iPad 2 I can nolonger view maps.  It says there are JavaScript errors.  How can I fix this problem?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

    You cannot active a phone if it does not have a SIM card in it. Period. End of discussion.
    If you get this error and it has a SIM card in the phone then either the SIM card is defective or the phone is defective. Get a new SIM card and try again. If the problem occurs with the new SIM card the phone needs to be repaired.

  • HT1391 How can I read and print digital booklets that are downloaded togheter with the recordings I purchased

    cu is right.
    classloader returns the URL of your resource. You can the jar using something like the following...
    ClassLoader classloader = this.getClassLoader();
    url = classloader.getResource("your_resouces...");
    if(url == null)
    System.out.println("cannot find resource ");
    return null;
    String jar = url.getFile();
    jar = jar.substring(jar.indexOf("/")+1, jar.lastIndexOf("!")).replace('/', '\\');
    obviously, this code snippet works on windows only. Now you have the jar file path. I use Jar file classes to access the jar file. (e.g. you can search for each class files)

  • Hp officejet 6500a won't scan to computer without ink cartridge installed?

    Why do I need an ink cartridge installed to scan a pdf to computer?

    Hi,
    I did mentioned this around 2 years back: Vendors (all of them) should allow scan function without ink but looks like the answer is: before it's a scanner, it IS a printer and it needs inks to perform its primary function: printing. No inks, it may stop to do anything during the warming up process.

  • When I open Garage Band '09 it says" No Apple Loops found; There are no Apple Loops installed on your System. Please reinstall the Apple Loop Package".

    I have garage band '09 on my mac.  When I open garage band a little notice pops up saying "No Apple Loops found; There are no Apple Loops installed on your System. Please reinstall the Apple Loop Package"  I have followed the instructions on the apple web page and it didn't work.  I looked in all of the locations on my mac and all of the folders that should contain apple loops are empty.  Is there a way I can redownload the apple loops to my mac without buying garage band '11 or one of the jam packs????????????????

  • Printer is missing drivers since replacing ink cartridge!

    I have a pc operating window's 7. My printer is a Photosmart 7520. My black ink as low, so I changed the cartridge, as I have done many times before. Now, my printer won't print, plus I get a message two drivers are missing. I don't remember which ones. I found the web site confusing when looking for the drivers. I didn't find any with the names I was looking for.
    I had been printing just prior to changing the ink cartridge, without any problem. What do I need to do?

    Which printer do you have specifically? HP makes several eprinters and I want to make sure I get the best information for you that I can.
    Also, have you tried doing a self test print to see if the issue is hardware related versus being software related?
