Where is the printer head located on the MP600?

Where is the printer head located on the Canon MP600 and how do I remove it?  I have had my printer for over 7 years with absolutely no problems!  Then, yesterday, after I replaced an ink cartridge, it would not print at all -- keep getting the message "Wrong Printer Head - Replace Printer Head" - I removed all the cartridges and re-inserted them, but that did no good.  One suggestion I found on-line said to remove the printer head and re-install it -- Where is it located???

Hi mjomeara,
To reseat the print head in the unit, please follow the steps located here.  Once the print head is reseated, please turn off the printer, unplug the power cord and leave it out for at least 10 minutes, then plug it back in and turn the printer back on.  If you still receive the print head error, the printer will require servicing.  Please call or email us using one of the methods on the Contact Us page for further assistance.

  • Smart form problem when printing header in table

    Hi Friends,
    I am facing some problem in smartform. In my smartform there is a table - where I should print "Header" at each start of line items and also at page break. So, I checked both the check boxes in Header as "Start of table" and "Page break".
    Now the problem is in main window - it is printing Header and line items are coming. After finished Again the header is coming and line items are coming. In some cases - What is happenning is: If the first page ends at the header only - Header is getting printed in the first page and the page ends here. In the next page also "Header is appearing because i checked page break". So, it is appearing twice.
    Could someone please guide me on this issue.
    Regards,
    Hari

    Hi,
    At any case the two headers will not be displayed if you select the both "start of table" and "at page break.". Please check whether there is another widow in the form from where the header is displaying.
    Thanks ,

  • Pixma MG6320 Where is the print head release?

    ‎09-06-2014 01:12 PM
    My Pixma MG6320 was replaced by Cannon by mail without a printer head while under warranty with problems with the print head and I am supposed to use the head from my old printer (the one with the print head problems). They can't send me a replacement with a new head? The access door is inadequate to perform this operation and there is no hint on the generic instructions, that apply to many different models, where the head release lever is. I see that there are two brass clips way at the back of the assembly that seem to be holding the head in place.
    How hard would it be for a huge corporation like this to provide instructions applicable to the exact product you purchased instead of these generic instructions that leave out so much you need to know; in able to do what they seem to expect of you. Give me a break! Don't they sell thousands of each different model. Shows how important my time and peace of mind is to the manufacturer. Online "how to" help also does not show the majic release lever. Also, it is the weekend and telephone help is not available.

    Hi bettytillery,
    On very rare occasions, like a print head error condition or poor print quality issues, it may be necessary to reseat or remove the print head from one printer to install it into another.  Follow these steps to remove the print head:
    Make sure that the power is turned on, then, holding both sides of the paper output tray, gently open it.
    Lift the operation panel open until it stops.  The print head holder will move to ink tank replacement position.
    Push the tab (A) on an ink tank and lift it out of the printer.
    Remove the rest of the ink tanks from the holder.
    After all the ink tanks have been removed from the holder, press and hold the Stop button for two seconds (or longer) until the print head carriage moves to the replacement position and then release the button.  The carriage will move to the right and then return almost centered with the front opening.
    Open the the inner cover (B) and push it down all the way to the bottom.
    Pull the Head Set Lever towards the front of the machine. You may find resistance when the bottom of the Head Set Lever hits the back of the front edge. The Head Set Lever will move forward as it slides above that front edge.
    Use your finger tips to grab the top of the center tab and pull out the print head. You will notice the front of the print head will drop face down as you pull it out of the machine.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Wireless - Where are the printing shortcuts?????

    HP Officejet Pro 8600 Wireless Printer
    Windows 7
    Where are the printing shortcuts?????
    I just replaced a canon printer that died that had the concept of PROFILES, so that I could setup a PROFILE for each type of printing, i.e. 4X6 photos/documents/5X7 photos.  So it was easy for our family to print, they would pick each setting.
    Now with latest driver for 8600 there are NO way to save a set of settings for a printer.   I have seen some old discussions on this but I just can't believe HP doesn't have this type of functionality in their drivers.  I don't need the ePrint and all the other bogus stuff installed with the 8600 driver, but I DO NEED the ability to save different sets of printing options so I don't have to remember, borderless or not, landscape or not, etc and keep wasting photo paper/ink/regular paper with incorrect options.
    Here is another posting with similar points -> Customers are NOT getting full print functionality.  We don't care about the extra software, it is minimal.  Full functionality includes the ability to create profiles for different printing situations so that the user can easily choose that profile (and therefore all the myriad settings for that profile).  What HP has done is give us ONE profile, essentially, and every time you want to do something different, you have to change that ONE profile.  How is that helping?
    As I said, if I want to switch from a normal printing job (e-mail, web page, etc.) which uses my ONE setting, and then want to print a 4x6 photo, I have to remember to change at least 6 different settings.  With the shortcut, I would select my "borderless photo" shortcut, and it would automatically switch paper trays, size, color, quality, you name it.  Now you force me to change that each and every time.
    If someone can explain why this is considered full functionality I would be extremely grateful.

    Hello,
    I am sorry you are having trouble with your print experience.
    I am going to make some assumptions here, which could be wrong in your case, but might help others.  Since you mention printing from Windows7 and ePrint in the same thread, can I assume you are trying to print using the HP ePrint driver for windows (www.hp.com/go/eprintsoftware) ?  The ePrint driver also comes preinstalled on all HP laptops and pcs now, so maybe you made a recent pc purchase and therefore have the ePrint driver installed?
    The goal of the ePrint windows driver currently has a lot less to do with providing the hundreds of print features and settings that the full featured, product specific print drivers provide.  The goal is to enable customers to be able to print to any recent or new HP printer through a number of different connection paths from a single installed print driver / print queue.  Once the ePrint driver is installed, printing with that driver will dynamically find direct network printers, cloud enabled printers, public print locations, direct wireless printers, etc., and create the correct print format depending on the print path taken.  If the printer is ePrint cloud enabled and has a good internet connection, the printer and the pc do not have to be in the same location.  For example, you can print from home to your printer at work.  You can send photos of the kids to your mom's printer in another state, etc.  The ePrint solution is also good for the traveling worker who just wants to send the occasional print job to the nearest network or wireless direct printer without having to find and install another print driver for each new printer.  One driver, one queue and you can print to any recent or new HP printer.
    The ePrint driver has a few important print settings that customers may want to use (copies, duplex, grayscale, etc).  More may be added over time depending on demand.
    BTW, because the ePrint driver does not have a ton of print settings to handle, the rendering of print jobs is as simple and efficient as possible and should not bog down your pc.
    If you want all the bells and whistles in the print driver experience and just want to print to a single printer you can download and install the product specific print driver from hp.com  
    I hope that helps out a few people who may be wondering what the purpose of ePrint is!!
    Good luck.
    I am an HP employee, but these are my own thoughts and suggestions

  • Photosmart 8230. How do you Remove the print heads for cleaning?

    Hi guys, I have a Photosmart 8230. After a few lines of printing the black ink fades to almost nothing, all the colours are perfect. There are no error messages. I have done the self cleaning and alignment procedures and wasted a lot of expensive ink. The test page comes out with streaks on the black only. It has been suggested that I take the print head out and immerse it in hot water as a last resort. The question is, how do I remove the printhead? or should I use it as a sea anchor!!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I just did this to a HP Photosmart 8250 which is in the 8000 series range. I assume they are similar. I was an appliance repair man and have done a lot of other tings in my life, so I decided to take a shot at repairing my 8250 rather than junk it. For 3 Years it was great, only one paper jam, and fast great photos, so I didn't want to give up on it. HP will not repair printers for us, I think because it is too labor intensive, and they can sell a new one for what it would cost.
    I actually fixed my HP Photostat 8250. Its working but the color printing is not as good as it was, yet, but I am hoping that will improve as all of the colored inks work their way through the system.
    Taking one of these apart and putting it back together is like a Chinese puzzle, so its appropriate that they are made in China. Most of the parts inside can be easily damaged if you are not careful. The covers have very clever ideas to their design and how they snap in place. Take your time with the covers and use small tools.
    Getting it back in working condition is another matter. There is a 6 circuit pump and more than a few feet of tubing. I had the side covers off while I tested it and this pump seems to work in both directions. This pump is inside the left side cover. There is another motor with a timing wheel of some kind that stops and starts in both directions at the same time the printhead carriage is whipping back and forth printing. There are other motors also. These things are ingenious. It is surprising that I bought it for less than $100 on sale. It looks like a $1000 piece of equipment inside.
     It would probably be a good idea to not remove the left side cover, but if you do, be very careful around the clear timing wheel. it looks delicate. Below is from an email I sent to a friend and I am revising it to make sense. Remember this is something that really requires training to do this, but I see people today that have the guts to tackle all sorts of projects, so for what its worth, and you asked.
    Under the right side cover is a motherboard, with a bunch of cables plugged into it, small, larger and even ribbon cables. I found it necessary to remove the motherboard. I had a bit of experience working on Canon printers and I would also suggest you take digital pictures as you go so you can view them on your PC. I am also going through this because I don't like being told we can get anything repaired correctly today, its ridiculous that these printers have become just more throwaways. If you want to do this, as a guide, I must have spent 8 to 10 hours doing this, but now I could do it again in 2, that is the learning process.
    Once you get the top off the printer, you will see the printhead carriage. The carriage will be to the right side. The printhead is retained by two screws at the front, (take pictures) a spring clip at the rear and two screws that hold a plastic cover over the six ink hoses that plug into the printhead, its a manifold strip affair. You have to unplug the manifold to remove the printhead, but now I am not 100% sure its necessary to remove the printhead? The ink gunk you will see after you move the printhead to the left is no doubt most of the problem.
     Probably after the hot water treatment as described below, the built in printhead cleaner will be able to resume cleaning the printhead, after the hot water cleans the gunk from IT.
     I removed the printhead like I say below, but first do this. Under the printhead there is a little carriage with a patch of foam rubber that cleans the print head nozzles.This little device works back and forth while cleaning, but while it is parked, with the printer off, it is forward and you won't be able to move the printhead. Use a flashlight to be sure and you will see how to push the cleaner carriage  to the rear and then move the printhead carriage to the left. THEN, you will see the gunky ink mess that has accumulated. This gunky mess I think is the main problem. There are also some felt pads below the cleaning device to absorb some of the ink gunk. I don't know how the HP techs do this, but I used the hot water method below, I had nothing to lose. I would move the printhead first and then you can decide about removing it. I would make sure not to get any of the electronics wet and why I removed the motherboard and why I say take photos. Its hard enough to remember where the different screws alone go, when you are doing this. It can be done, mine is working, even if not perfectly, YET.  You need to be very careful with your fingers, because it is hard to find space to hold onto the printer and whay it might be a good idea to not remove the left side.
    They are so complicated, its just a matter of time before they get gunked up with ink and the printhead begins floating in the mess. I had nothing to lose so I removed the printhead, carefully, taped up all the hoses so they didn't dry out, Then I removed the motherboard to keep it from getting wet, THEN I held the messy ink end under the HOT water in the laundry tub and flushed out enough ink to dye a bathtub full of water. The hot water worked well. Then I let it all dry out. There are some delicate procedures to all of this and it takes time. I think that is why its very hard to find anyone to fix them. Its labor intensive and probably why HP won't repair them.  The print section is the problem, and why I won't buy an All in One printer, Fax, and Scanner. I do buy the extended warranty's now. If you tackle this, take your time, take photos, and good luck. By the way, the 8250 uses O2 print cartridges, is that the type of printer you have, but a lot of this applies to other printers and other brands, and I bet I am not the only one to do this. Before I started this the diagonstics showed no problems, so I assumed it was the the ink aspect of the printer, and not an electronic of mechanical problem. I hope this helps.

    Where is the "setup" button on a canon printer MX 452. Does anybody know? I'm supposed to push it to align the print head.

    What OS are you running?
    There is no hardware WPS button on the TC.. you can use it via the airport uitlity.
    The latest utility has added it.

    It is also possible also in 5.6 utility.
    Start the manual setup.. go to the top menu.. it is not in the main box. Add wireless clients.
    That brings up a hidden page in the AU
    Personally I have always done it manually via the printer wizard and simply setup wireless in the printer as infrastructure mode with the correct wireless name and password/security settings..

  • Where is the landscape/protrait button on the print menu?

    I want to change the orientation of a photo from landscape to portrait by cropping the two ends of the landscape view, in effect zooming in on the people and leaving out the scene.  I get the photo as I like it in iPhoto using the edit feature.  When I go to print, however, the program retains the original orientation and cuts off the heads of the people.  How do I get the program to print what I see in iPhoto?  Where is the portrait/landscapt toggle button on the print window?

    It takes two trips to the crop size/ratio menu to change the orientation. After setting the print size/ratio select the same menu and look at the very bottom of it.

  • How to print header lines at the top of every page with Alv list display?

    Dear all,
    I need a requirement with printing issue. A program list should be printed with the function reuse_alv_list_display.
    The list has several pages and then can be printed but the header lines appear only first page when they printed. The other pages don't have header lines, they continue with the next record of the list remaining from previous page. I use the alv parameters as below:
      CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY'
        EXPORTING
          i_callback_program       = l_repid
          i_callback_pf_status_set = 'ALV_PF_STATUS'
          is_layout                = ls_layo
          it_fieldcat              = lt_fcat
          i_default                = 'X'
          i_save                   = 'A'
          is_variant               = ls_variant
          it_events                = lt_events
        TABLES
          t_outtab                 = lt_data
        EXCEPTIONS
          program_error            = 1
          OTHERS                   = 2.
    and lt_events as below:
      ls_event-name = 'END_OF_LIST'.
      ls_event-form = 'ALV_END_OF_LIST'.
      APPEND ls_event TO lt_events.
      ls_event-name = 'END_OF_PAGE'.
      ls_event-form = 'ALV_END_OF_PAGE'.
      APPEND ls_event TO lt_events.
      ls_event-name = 'TOP_OF_LIST'.
      ls_event-form = 'ALV_TOP_OF_LIST'.
      APPEND ls_event TO lt_events.
      ls_event-name = 'TOP_OF_PAGE'.
      ls_event-form = 'ALV_TOP_OF_PAGE'.
      APPEND ls_event TO lt_events.
    So, how can I print header lines for every page?
    Best Regards,

    Hello Saba,
    Your point might be very close to solution.
    Because in the selection screen of the program there are two radio buttons, one of them visits 'REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE' function and the other doesn't. The one which visits has a problem with header liens in every page when printing. But I couldn't find out the solution yet.
    reuse_alv_list_display uses 4 event and of course I call subroutine. There are end_of_list, end_of_page, top_of_list and top_of_page. I use in the subroutine for top_of_page:
      CALL FUNCTION 'LVC_TRANSFER_TO_SLIS'
        EXPORTING
          it_fieldcat_lvc         = gt_fcat
        IMPORTING
          et_fieldcat_alv         = lt_fcat
        EXCEPTIONS
          it_data_missing         = 1
          it_fieldcat_lvc_missing = 2
          OTHERS                  = 3.
      CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_WIDTH_GET'
        EXPORTING
          it_fieldcat = lt_fcat
        IMPORTING
          e_width     = l_width.
    WRITE l_reptx TO l_reptx CENTERED.
      NEW-LINE.
      WRITE: AT (l_width) l_reptx CENTERED.
      SUBTRACT 10 FROM l_width.
      WRITE: AT l_width sy-pagno RIGHT-JUSTIFIED.
        CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE'
          EXPORTING
            it_list_commentary       = lt_header
      I_LOGO                   =
      I_END_OF_LIST_GRID       =
    Do you have other suggestions ?
