Top 20 Canon PIXMA iP4300 InkJet Photo Printer Questions & Answers

Take the print head out of the machine and sit it in a saucer of very hot ( just off boil) water about 10mm deep for a minute. Take it out and sit in on a pad of paper towel to dry briefly before returning it and the cartridges into the machine. Give it a deep clean and try again. If still no good, the print head has probably had it.

possible defective cartridges, car printing

the paper feed rollers are worn out; replace them

Press and hold the stop button on the printer for 10 seconds and see if this clears

Hello, first unplug the the printer and take out the cartridges, first dab them on a wet paper towel until the ink start flowing, then take a q-tip dipped in alcohol and where u insert the cartridges, clean the print heads, replace the cartridges and power up. If that doesn't help it you have bad cartridges.

Yes most certainly does.

you can get letest drivers from cannon's official website

Yvonne, the printer has no timer on it on. Check your driver settings on your computer. Specifically, check your advanced tab in your driver and see that "Always available" is clicked on.

You will need to replace the printhead or buy another machine.

If the inks will not come out the alignment fails. Have you tried a deep clean? If that does not solve your problem You can try and soak the head in one oz. ammonia and 8 oz. of hot water. Preferably distilled or spring water. Make sure it covers the nozzles and ink intake ports. Let it soak for 30-45 minutes. Completely dry the head and contacts being careful of the nozzles .Maybe let it sit for an extra few minutes Do a deep clean after installed and if it now does a nozzle check be sure to put paper in the top tray and do an alignment. If this does not work you may need a print head which I can supply. Thankls for using Fix-Ya

Hi No need to worry, 16 times blink simply means that you're out of ink for one or more of the cartridges. Replace and you should be fine. Greetz, Generic2

Hi Neil Does it just spool the page, or does the head move as if it is trying to print something ? Hans

One, or more, of your ink tanks are empty. Open the Canon IJ Status Monitor on your computer to check the ink level information. Replace the appropriate tank.

There is many reasons for that, are you printing any thing??? Just restart the printed and see if lights turned off....

I think your text document didn't fit the page. I have done that before. It overruns and the extra becomes the lines inbetween. To fix this use microsoft publisher to print it so that you can choose the paper size and the borders and fit the document within the space allowed.

It may have lost track of where the head is, even though it calibrates when starting up. (Like when you remove jammed paper forcefully).First check: make sure the front flap used to print a cd is closed - it tends to come loose easily.If that isn't the problem, then:Switch the printer on. When the head comes in view, remove the power plug. Then move the head all the way to the left. Close the cover. Put the power plug back in and switch on.

Disconnect all the cables connected to the printer - press and hold the power button the printer for abt 10 seconds with cables disconncted - reconnect power and check

hello,maybe the paper feed is jammed try to see if it has something that stops the paper to go in and if you are asking for the service manual for the ip4300 printer you can download it from the below link:http://goo.gl/ZYxxUGood luck
