You remove the print this pull the scanner up,the carraige return in the middle of printer,then you drag the cart lift up, remove the cartridges....under the cartridge is the print head.If i have been useful please give me a vote :).Thanks

Make sure you have the latest drivers for the printer installed on your computer by visiting the manufacturer's website and getting and installing the latest version. Next, if you've already run the cleaning procedure, try replacing the ink cartridges. Finally, if that doesn't work, the printer may be defective and should be sent back.

Hello and Welcome

Error 5100 means that the cartridge can not be detected by the printer.
Actually the printer is not actually loading the cartridge and showing you the error 5100.
To solve these follow the following steps. I hope it works

1. Turn off printer
2. Remove both the cartridges from the printer
3. Use a clothe moistened with alcohol to clean the surface contact on the cartridges where the terminals inside the printers touches
4. Return the cartridges
5. Turn on the printer.

Error will be removed

Hi, Kim!
Is the tab on the new cartridge interfering with the electric contacts on the cartridge? Make sure those contacts are well-seated into the printer socket to make a firm connection. (Handle gently - just pay attention to how it should fit, and that nothing is in the way between the cartridge and the socket.)

Let me know if this helps -- ambssdor.

Download and install a copy of Primo PDF ,and as you scan your documents, instead of sending them to your default printer, select "Primo PDF" for your printer name, when your "Print" windows
opens. A Primo PDF window will open allowing to create a PDF of your scanned document.
Make a note of the document name and where you saved it...

Open up "Outlook Express"
Click "Create Mail"
compose your email,
then select "Attach"
"Insert Attachment" window opens....select your file or files, click "Attach"
Click "Send"

open it and looks inside if there is a possibility of a small piece of paper jammed somewhere in it. check the rolls

there are several pieces of paper that must be remove from the new cartridge. Check! if you still are having problems go to the web site for the canon printer

See very detailed description at this link:

This machine uses ink tanks.
The ink tanks are installed into the print head.
Turn off the printer and open the lid.
Make sure the head is seated firmly in the machine.

fix it by moving the print cartridges to the far left, and on the far right there is a little white plastic tab that is spring loaded. i just puched this tab towards the front of the printer and realised it has jammed on me. after doing this i closed the lid and restarted the unit. worked straight away no more issues

6A80 error is an APP position error caused by the APP motor during the purging operation as the printer starts up. Canon states that one of three components is likely to have failed, the sheet feed unit, purge unit or logic board. All of these will be almost impossible to get as a spare part. The only thing worth trying is an EEPROM reset that can be done using the service manual. Get a copy here: http://www.tradebit.com/filedetail.php/4981053-canon-pixma-mp520-printer-service-manual

Check for a reset button on back of unit near power supply.
Power outage not a problem however power surge is, get a surge protector

The printer software should give you the option of printing in monochrome. Just check the box that asks for this option.
