How Do You Troubleshoot A Canon Pixma Ip4000 Print Head?
The Canon Pixma IP 4000 printer has a self-diagnosing print head error notification system. Generally the “Alarm/Power” light will flash and tell you what kind of problem you might be having with your print head. You can also run tests yourself to identify problems. Look at the “Alarm/Power” light and see how many times it’s flashing. If it flashes orange 11 times consecutively, that means there is a print head alignment issue. Perform deep cleaning, then move the printer away from any strong light sources. To deep clean, click the Maintenance tab in the “Printers” folder. Then click the “Deep Cleaning” icon. You can select all colors, black, or selected colors. Click on “Execute.” If it flashes orange five times consecutively, that means there is a print head error. Reseat the print head, then reset the printer. To reseat the print head, make sure the printer is on. Open the paper output tray and top cover. Make sure the print head holder is in the center and open the inner cover. rem
