hi. have you tried print from other pc. ? if still the same issue maybe is a internal problem with your printer

APA SOLUSINYA ERROR 2

ERROR 2

following error codes i found
E2-2 No paper (ASF)
E3-3 Paper jam
E4 No ink
E5-5 The ink cartridges are not installed or a non-supported ink cartridge is installed ,
or the ink cartridges are not installed properly
E8 Waste ink absorber full, or platen waste ink absorber full

There is no solution for that, if you want only scanning, you need a separate scanner. This machine will only scan when all other errors are taken care of. And all inks are full.

error 2 7

Computer chips in cartridges must be reset before the printer will recognize them as full. If you paid a shop to refill your cartridges take them back and complain. The best places will test the refilled cartridge before giving it to you.

Please note durability of prints using cheap ink is usually very poor, and as a result the manufacturers ink is usually much the better choice.

Sadly not. Canon inkjet printer don't tend to let you do anything without a full set of cartridges.

Try unplugging the power cord for 5 minuets in hopes to reset itand plug it back in.

Just press the Reset button for 5 sec till it displays "1" then u can scan without replacing the ink.

first confirm is your printer say ready in your pc control panel--printer and faxes--------yor printer .if the answer is yes then try the second solution which is replace the ink cartridges.

This mayclear the ink absorber problem.There is ink absorbers located at both ends of the printerwhere the ink head move.To dry the ink absorber, power up the printer and open the cover so the inkcartridges and print head will move to the middle of the printer.Then take several sheets of absorbent tissue, fold it into a pad and place itinside the printer over the ink absorber on the far left hand side of theprinter to soak up the excess ink. You may need to change the absorbent tissuea few times. Then repeat the same procedure on the right hand ink absorber.Close the lid and the printer should now function normally.

If the the printer has a Cancel button try, prerssing cancel several times, it may overide the ink error and go to a normal mode.You may want to try using the windows scanner instead of the printer OEM software to use only the scanner.Good luckwww;aaatvserevice.com

You might to visit your manufacturer website because they might have the latest driver that will work to a different OS version.

Thanks.
