Unfortunately, there is no solution to a 5040 error. Your printer will require service or replacement.

Temporary solution to fix error code:

  1. Turn the printer OFF and unplug the power cord.
  2. Wait five seconds, then plug the printer back in.
  3. Turn the printer back ON

The Canon will give this error when something is broken error 5040 means that the motor wires running to the ADF automatic document feeder are broken. The same error pops up on the Canon MB2140 maxify. I took the printer apart by removing the side covers then disconnecting the ADF ribbons and wires. then I removed the top back cover on the ADF where the wires go in and found the broken wires, soldered them together and covered with heat shrink. assembled and tested working. No more error

I hope this is helpful for all printer guys

If the error message is still showing, then it is necessary to deliver or send the printer to an authorized repair center.

If the printer is still under warranty, (generally one year from purchase) and supporting documentation is provided, then a free of charge warranty repair will be carried out.
