Canon MX7600 error 5100, 5C20

I have a Canon Pixma MX7600 all-in-one printer. For a few months, it has been periodically and spontaneously making a very loud grinding noise, which souds like cogs not engaging properly. Printing has continued normally. Now it has suddenly stopped woirking altogether, reporting either error 5100 or error 5C20. The start-up initiates, I get the usual grinding noise (perhaps now even a little louder) and then it stops with said error-code displayed. There is nothing concerning this error-code or the noise in the user manual. Any advice?

Yes, 5100 means the carriage is not moving back and forth properly or there is grease on the encoder strip behind the carriage assembly. Grease spots make it lose count and slam into the side and grind gears. You need to clean the strip with a Q-tip moist with alcohol, but very carefully, not too much pressure on the strip.

    When exactly is the strip in question? Any chance of a picture? I assume maybe you are talking about the film like looking (positon?) strip that runs in frount of the bel? I get the same noise but only recently got error code 5C20. On another site they claim 5C20 is a purge pump unit/motor problem. Although quite honestly it sounds like gears grinding. It has been happening since new almost, but got a lot worse recently and when the code appears it latches. Thanks for any help.

Trying to fax with pixma mx7600. Plugged phone

You probably want to plug the phone line (the line from the wall) into the port marked "L" for line on the back of the Fax machine. The jack with the picture of the telephone handset is for your optional voice phone to share the same line with the fax machine.

I keep getting an "error code 8300" on my canon mx7600, what can I do to fix it ?

8300 might be an error shown on your computer, I need the actual error shown on the printer display.
B300 however is a reactor fluid delivery error and should be covered under the one year warranty.
