Canon PIXMA MX850 multifunction InkJet Printer - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
Canon MX850 printer - ADF copy has black line on it
Hello, my name is Steve,.
This is a common problem and an easy fix.
If you lift the ADF / top cover assembly up, you will see a small narrow piece of glass next to the flat-bed glass.
Ths is called a "Slit-glass". The only purpose is to read content from that point by the scanner, The Scanner will sit in the underside of it.
It is dirty. Wipe this with glass cleaner and a soft lint-free cloth. you may need to do this several times. Concentrate the part of the glass were this image problem is just by the orientation of the document you are installing with the direction of the document you are passing through the ADF.
It will take several attempts, but with each try, make a new test from the original document, unyil the problem disappears.
I believe this will solve your problem, Best , Steve

Getting error code 6A00-Canon PIXMA MX850 all-in-one printer
The error indicates that the slide the cartridges run on has debris buildup or a component of the printer is blocking the cartridges ability to slide.
Steps to fix...
1. Unplug printer from power source
2. Slide the cartridges to the middle and inspect the slide for a buildup of "gunk" or pieces of debris. Remove what you see and clean the slide with a lint free rag and isopropyl alcohol
3. Look for any part of the printer that may have become dislodged or moved from vibaration and use and try to put it back in to place.
4. Get some "canned air" at any computer or office supply store and blow the printer out thoroughly.
Plug the printer back in and it should work again.

Yellow cast when printing from
The way inkjet printers work is they mix the limited amounts of colours available from the cartridges, by printing in layers, to get the desired colour. A lot of the time when it appears off colour its because one of the other colours isn't printing properly to show create the correct 'mix'.
This can either be because the colour is low, or because there is a blockage somewhere. I would suggest removing the cartridges & reinserting them, then performing maintenance which i believe can be done on the printer itself by pressing the menu button, finding 'maintenance/settings' pressing OK, then going to 'maintenance', followed by doing a 'cleaning procedure'.
More info here:

If this doesnt help, try the same thing but choosing deep cleaning.
Hope this helps.

What is error B200 on Canon MX850?
The B200 error is a Voltage High Error. I read that you should try using a different power outlet and see if that works and if that doesn't work try cleaning the print head:
- Open the printer and wait for the carriage to slide over. If for some reason it does not follow these instructions:
-
- Unplug the printer
- Manually slide the carriage over until you can get the ink cartridges out.
- Remove the ink cartridges from the print head.
- Use cotton swabs dipped in hot water or a mix of hot water and alcohol to thoroughly clean the print head.
- Repeat this until there is no ink residue coming off on the cotton swab
- Allow to dry and replace the cartridges
- Try to print something
If it doesn't fix it then the board inside of the printer is faulty and you will have to replace the printer
Thanks.

Error 5100. pixma mx850??
5100 says says the carriage is sticking or there is grease on the encoder strip. You can clean the encoder with a Q-tip just damp with water. If the clean station on the right is stuck in the up position you need a shop to replace or clean it for you.
