Canon PIXMA iP4600 Color InkJet Photo Printer - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

what is problem please explain

You will need to open the ink cartridge door and let the print carriage go to the middle. Then, remove al ink cartridges and lift the latch to remove the printhead. This video shows another Canon printer, but same concept:

The Canon service info is: B200/P10 - Orange and green light blinking 10 times Description: A service error has occurred. Resolution: 1. Turn off the printer. 2. Disconnect the power cable. 3. Open the printer cover. 4. Check for any orange protective tape or white polystyrene and remove if necessary. 5. Check that there are no foreign objects in the printer (such as a paper clip) and remove if necessary. 6. Close the cover. 7. Reconnect and turn on. If the above solution has not resolved your error, please contact your nearest Canon authorised service facility using the link at the top of the page. The error code is usually given for a foreign object present in the print head carriage path, so check at both ends for a crumpled up wedge of paper. If nothing is found, it is most likely that your print head has an over-heating problem and is dying

Many times the switch that lets the printer know it's out of paper is stuck in position, or dust has clogged it. If you can blow the small bits of paper or dust out you can get it going again. I use a can of compressed air to clean my printer about once a month to stop this from happening. It is a common problem.

issue with registry uninstall the driver remove the entries from registry . reboot the system try again skype id :johnwalker800969

You can Try
Solution 1:
Clean the timing strip.

Solution 2:
The purge cap (the white sliding mechanism that the print head parks to when it's not in use) may be not lubricated well enough .

Lubricate the sliders with some white grease (don't get it on the small wipers or the black caps); this repair probably require to remove the right panel off of the printer to gain access to the purge mechanism.
All best: Pineworks

ink absorber is full ip3680 solve

The print head is lockedfeed a piece of paper through the back and manually turn the white roller until the paper is 3/4 through. Turn the printer on and the printer should take the paper and run it the rest of the way through.

- release all buttons - the printer will blink few times with green light and will then light green constantly. You have put the printer in Service Mode now and you can now run the Service Tool. (If the printer is still blinking by green - you have some other errors in printer and you have to fix them first, because the Service Tool will not work if the printer is not put in service mode - green light is constant)

4. Run the Servicetools V3400.exe program.

5. Select the connected USB port number from USB PORT

6. In the Ink Absorber Counter section of the Service Tool, select MAIN from the Absorber pull-down menu.

7. From the Counter Value(%) pull-down menu, select the value (in 10% increments) which is the closest to the actual counter value confirmed before replacement of the logic board, and click SET. Print EEPROM information to confirm that the value is properly set to the EEPROM

Verify the ink cartridges and perform the mantenance head cleaner mode.

You need to replace the ink absorber and reset the error code by following the reset procedure:Resetting error 6c10

6C10 means you need to replace the ink absorber. After this it require to reset the error. Reset 6C10

reinstall the software

If you haven't used your printer in a while, it's possible the print heads have become totally clogged (assuming you haven't already checked out the obvious things like ink levels etc.)I found that by removing the printhead (remove the ink carts, flip a lever and lift out) you can try spraying some window cleaner onto the nozzles on the underside, leaving a few minutes, and then get a bowl of hot tap water and touch the nozzles on the surface of the hot water.This will definitely help some 'soft' blocked nozzles. If you get SOME print action after this, then you know the problem is definitely clogged nozzles. However, if they're severely blocked, then you can find a print head cleaner kit online for about $10. It contains some cleaner fluid, a syringe and some pieces of clear hose that fit on the ink funnels on top. Then you can inject cleaning fluid into the nozzles. Did it for mine - worked a treat!BTW, the inkjet head is fairly watertight in itself - you can flush the nozzles under a hot tap no problem. DO MAKE SURE THE HEAD IS COMPLETELY DRY BEFORE YOU PUT IT BACK IN YOUR PRINTER!

To reset the pruge counter try this...

1. Start with printer off
2. Press and hold resume Button (triangle in the circle) and click "Power" button. Green led should be on
3. While holding the Power button, release the Resume Button.
4. Without releasing the Power Button, click "Resume" button for two times and release Both Buttons.
5. Click "Resume" for four times then soon click "Power" button, to confirm the selected action (reset counter absorber).
6. Turn off the printer and turn on again

This will however not clean the ink absorber that your printer believes is full. The estimate for how full the absorber is can be pretty generous so it is likely that you could print hundreds of pages before any ink overflows. It will however overflow eventually is not replaced but it can be a pretty involved proceedure. For example see this video for a different printer.

It turns out that if you read the documentation VERY carefully it says that "if the application program specifies 8.5x11 plain paper and that is what is loaded in the front cassette you cannot print from the rear tray". It turns out that this is true even if you go to the printer driver and specify "rear tray" manually. The driver disregards the setting. You can force printing plain paper from the rear tray by going to the Canon "My Printer" icon and forcing ALL printing from the rear tray. If you do this, remember to change it back. You can also print plain paper from the rear tray if you specify the "allocation" option and the paper from the front cassette runs out. You can always print from the rear tray if the application that created the print job specifies something other than 8.5x11 without resorting to the forced override, e.g. printing a .jpg or .gif or something from an application like Paintshop or Printshop, etc.
