How do I fix error 5100 on Canon Pixima MX532?

I'm using a new Toshiba Laptop with OS Windows 8.1
I got a message saying there was a paper jam but there is not a paper jam as far as I can tell.  I tried turning power off - pushing all kinds of buttons but all I get when the power comes back on is the printer cariage runs once back and forth and then two short beeps and then the orange error triangle and the power button blinks.
Anyone here to help?
Thanks,,

    how do i fix error code 6A00 on the LCD screen of my Canon PIXMA MP810 

    Hello drews,
    To try and resolve the 6A00 error, we will want to ensure that no paper jams or obstructions exist in the printer.  To do this, please follow the steps below:
    ASF / Paper Output Slot
    Turn off the printer.
    Remove paper from the ASF.
    Gently pull the jammed paper out.
    If paper is visible from the ASF, use both hands to pull the paper out slowly.
    If paper is visible from the paper output slot, use both hands to pull the paper out slowly.
    If the paper tears and a piece of that remains inside the printer, open the scanning unit (printer cover) and remove the paper from inside the printer.
    Note : Be careful not to touch the components inside the printer.
    Turn on the printer and confirm that the Alarm light is off.
    (If the jammed paper remains in the printer, the paper may be automatically ejected.)
    Load paper back into the ASF.
    Press <OK> to clear the message and continue printing. If you are printing from an application software, follow the instructions displayed on your computer.

    Paper jams inside the printer
    Turn off the printer and disconnect the power cord and USB cable.
    Remove the jammed paper slowly using the following procedure.
    Open the rear cover to check if the paper is jammed.
    Pull out the cassette and check if the paper is jammed inside the cassette area.
    Stand the printer with the rear side down, holding the document cover.
    Press the tabs together and pull the green cover toward you.
    Check if the paper is jammed.
    (If you were not doing Duplex printing, you do not have to follow this procedure.)
    Close the green cover and place the printer back to a normal position.
    Reconnect the power cord and power on the printer. Confirm the Alarm light is off.
    Load paper back into the ASF or cassette.
    Press <OK> to clear the message and continue printing. If you are printing from an application software, follow the instructions displayed on your computer.

    Clearing credit card-sized paper jammed inside the printer
    Credit card-sized and 4" x 6" sized paper must be loaded properly. If this media is not loaded properly, it will feed into the printer and will not exit. Credit card-sized paper should only be loaded in the ASF and in portrait orientation. 4" x 6" sized paper can be loaded in the ASF or cassette. But must be loaded portrait orientation.
    If credit card-sized paper was loaded in landscape orientation in the ASF and did not eject (exit), please follow this procedure.
    Turn off the printer.
    Load the same paper type that is jammed inside the printer in portrait orientation.
    Power on the printer.
    The paper stock in the ASF will automatically feed the jammed paper from the printer.
    To resume printing, load the paper in portrait orientation.
    If 4" x 6" sized paper was loaded in landscape orientation in the cassette and did not eject (exit), please follow this procedure.
    Turn off the printer.
    Open the rear cover.
    Fold in four a piece of letter-sized plain paper.
    Push in the folded paper until it hits the jammed paper.
    If the jammed paper is visible from inside the printer area, pull it out and proceed to step 7.
    If the jammed paper cannot be pulled out, push in the folder paper from the rear so the jammed paper is in between the feed rollers.
    Pull out the folded paper and close the rear cover.
    Power on the printer and confirm that the Alarm light is off.  The jammed paper should automatically eject.
    To resume printing, load the paper in portrait orientation.
    If you still experience the same error after performing the steps above, please turn off the printer, unplug the power cord from the back and leave it out for at least 10 minutes, then plug it back in and turn it back on.  If the error persists, unfortunately, the printer will require servicing to resolve the issue.  Please click on the Contact Us link below to obtain your servicing options.

  • How do you fix error message "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. (6:6)

    How does one fix error message "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader.
    If it is running, please exit and try again. (6:6)

    http://www.essexinfo.net/queens-road-residents-association/assets/documents/village-voices is one example but a whole lot of the material which has been uploaded as pdf files over the last four years is now unviewable - if you click on the link you just get a black page.  The main site url is http://www.essexinfo.net and our site is the Queens Road Residents Association.  I have just gone through every link on the site and a number of links when clicked on will not bring up the material.  I tried going into Adobe 10 on my computer and disenabling protected mode as was suggested on your forum and at first when I went back into the essex info site it seemed to have worked when I clicked on a link that had only produced a black page.  However when I went back to test all the other links I found that the problem was still re-occuring.  This is really weird as the site and my connections to it which I sometimes make by directly accessing the site and sometime via a link from our QRRA blog have always worked perfectly with no problems up to now.  I downloaded adobe 10.1 on 8 March 2011.
    I contacted essexinfo separately but they said everything seemed to be OK at their end working from within the system.
    If you can help I would appreciate it.

    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • How i can fix error 9806 in itunes ?

    how i can fix error 9806 in iTunes ?

    You can't.  Error 1015 occurs when trying to restore a jailbroken phone.
    Jailbreaking your phone voids any warranty remaining with Apple and forfeits your right to any assistance from Apple including from this forum.
    You're on your own.  From what other people have posted, it's extremely unlikely you'll ever get your phone working again.

    I forgot to mention this does not occur for every song, only about 50% of them, not always by the same artist.
    Also that I have made successful purchases on my IPad in the past.

    Steve,
    I appreciate your answer.  While it might work, I'm a bit hesitant to remove the other programs as a possible solution since they are all currently working.
    With Acrobat 9 Pro failing with the OS 10.7 upgrade, I'm hoping that there is a less severe solution.
    Since the trigger appears to be 10.7 and may have something to do with the discontinued support of Rosetta, I could be spending a few hours working on a reinstall without a change.  Yes, it might work.  The "might" is the part that makes me hesitate.
    Is anyone else out there on OS 10.7 and running Acrobat 9 Pro?  Any issues with anyone else?
    Thanks Steve.  I do appreciate your offering a solution.  I may end up trying it if nothing else comes together.
    Mark
