I can print off things from the printer but cannot scan from it – will not work. It has not worked since the printer inks ran out. Can you normally operate the scanner even though the inks run out? Since then I have had the ink cartridges refilled instead of replacing with new ones, and the scanner still doesn’t work.
Once I turn on the printer, the LED flashes along with the black and colour ink lamps and the alarm lamp remains still – even though I have replaced the ink.
I then tried clicking on the MP Navigator icon and when I press preview or scan, the scan gear box comes up with the message “printer maintenance in progress, scan after it is complete – code 2,114,0”. Once hitting the ok button, nothing happens. I tried the same progress the other day and then the message displayed “scanning failed”.
Are these problems happening because the printer has not got new cannon ink cartridges?
BTW can you please give me the phone number for the NZ Cannon technical support line?
Thank you,
Maria
Just hold the stop and reset button until the warning goes away. Works like a charm
Okay all, I have an MP210 and I had the same problem using it on a Mac. My color ink was running low, and after a final printout it informed me that I was out of ink altogether. Now, the next day I want to scan something, so I bring on MP Nav EX, but it gives me the "maintenance in progress" error. I contacted Canon support and this is what they had to say:
"Unfortunately, the PIXMA MP210 must have all of the inks installed and
contain ink for the unit will be able to print.
If you are experiencing a "Low Ink" warning, you will still be able to
scan, but not print.
If you are getting a "Ink Out" error, you will NOT BE ABLE TO USE the unit for copying, scanning, or printing until the ink is replaced.
These precautions are in place to prevent damage to the printer from
occurring if printing with no ink is attempted. As the process of
scanning is the same as copying for the MP210's hardware, this is a part
of the design for this model."
So while this model may seem stupid and inefficient, it is there for a reason. And now you know! :)
The purpose of this design is probably more to insure the sale of ink cartridges. Their business model is to sell the units at lower costs and make up "lost" revenue through recurring sale of ink. Is not "stupid", but clever and effective - though underhanded and counter to the consumer's interest.

I have the same problem only with a mp210, but it's the same thing..
I wonder, if i'll change the both cartridges will it work?

Since my black ink cartridge has run out, my scanner doesn't work either. What's the connection between the scanner and the printer? And how do I fix this?
I copied a photo to my computer but was unable to do another one . I have done this many times without problem Wizard says "cant complete process was canceled" I have turned both computer and scanner off and rebooted but this didn,t work
Given solution doe not answer the problem.
