MP730 fax issue-can't receive fax, but can send out
I think I know why. You need to set the proper priority of your all-in-one Canon device. If it is TEL priority, it means you need to have a phone connected to the fax. If the phone rings, you need to pick up the handset and check if it's a fax tone or a call. If it is fax tone, you wait for 5 secs til fax tone stops, and then hang up. After that you will receive the fax. Failure to pick up the handset will not allow you to receive the fax. This might be the most probable setting you have, hence you can't receive the fax.If it is FAX priority, the same thing happens as TEL priority. Only difference is if you don't pick up, and it is a fax, it will still receive.You can also do FAX only. No need to connect a phone. Device will receive automatically.-Acieboy

Blue wire or green wire? If you have trouble with your color vision, have somebody else verify this. Green wires (or green wires with yellow stripes) with ring terminals (especially if they have teeth like lock washers) are used for electrically bonding the metal parts of the system to the ground terminal. In that case, you would look for threaded holes in the metal parts of the frame.A blue wire may go to a screw terminal block, typically for the hot terminal from the AC power connection along with a brown wire for neutral, but screw terminal blocks are rare in desktop printers. More commonly the AC power goes through a nylon two-pin or three-pin connector that mates with a corresponding connector on the power supply board, and the AC wires are usually black and white instead of blue and brown.Hint for future projects: When I remove a grounding wire from a chassis, I put the screw back in the hole (several turns, not tight) to remind me where the ground connection goes. (A loosely inserted screw not holding anything is waiting for that wire.) If you really want to be sure, tie a green thread around the screw, and remove the thread when you are ready to replace the grounding wire.

Take a look at my tip on cartridges it may save you a lot of time and money

OR
Read on and see if any applies to you.
Check that you removed the protective tape. some cartridges have two of these pieces of tape one over the head and possibly on on the contacts to the printer.
If you recently re-filled or had the cartridge refilled or even bought one of the many cheaper replacement cartridges you should read on
Most modern cartridges have an ink level chip built on to them.
Should the level drop below 25% then most of these chips lock up and will not reset.
Re-filling them will have no effect
If you are lucky you should be able to find either a chip resetter around on the INTERNET or maybe even local
OR
Even better empty cartridges that never need to be reset.
The second option is my preference
I realise these are not for your specific printer but there are others listed on both those sites as well.
cheaper cartridge problems have been on the rise recently and that is for ALL makes of printer.
If you try to clean the contacts be VERY careful cleaning contacts and ONLY use isopropynol on a lint free bud or cloth.
Also be very gentle.
I have seen the contacts cleaned and cartridges ruined with other methods of cleaning.
Rubbing too hard can also cause a badly set chip to move making it inoprable.
I dont like full prices replacements either which is why I always provide the links
I usually reccomend that people take back any cartridge that does not work right from the get-go.
I dont know of anyone who has had a problem doing that be it a shop refill or otherwise.
No matter if I paid $1 or $100 for a cartrdige I would still expect it to work
Hope this gives you the information you need

Cover open Error message
I'd say maybe the switchs is broken and your machine reminds me of a lexmark fault. Look for the cover switch, under lid on base, at rear, small hole, find the switch that get's activated when openning and closing the top, maybe it is missing, or broken.
link to
lexmark fault, that I think you will find your answer.
The black will not print.
You may need to buy black ink cartridge because it maybe empty anyway...buy new black ink cartridge and replace the old empty one
