My canon S520 doesn`t print - the yellow lamp is twinkling a few times and than the green lamp one time and it goes like that. I pushed the reset button, but it stillwon't work. I switched the printer off and than on, but the problem stays. What shall I do?
Two flashes: Out of paper, paper jam or paper feed error
Replace the paper correctly and press the RESUME/CANCEL button.
If paper has jammed in the printer, clear the jam and press the RESUME/CANCEL
button.
Three flashes: Paper jam
If paper has jammed in the printer, clear the jam, replace the paper in the printer
correctly and press the RESUME/CANCEL button.
Four flashes: Empty ink tank
One of the ink tanks is empty. Replace it.
Six flashes: No print head installed
Install a print head.
Seven flashes: Defective print head
Remove and reinstall the print head.
Also, ensure that the protective tape has been removed. If reinstalling the print head
does not resolve the problem, replace it with a new one.
Eight flashes: Waste ink tank almost full
The printer has a built-in waste ink tank for the ink used during print head cleaning. Eight
flashes indicates that the waste ink tank is nearly full. Press the RESUME/CANCEL
button to cancel the error so you can continue printing. Before the waste ink tank
becomes completely full, contact a Canon service representative to have the waste ink
tank replaced. Canon recommends to call for service as soon as this error occurs. Once
the waste ink tank becomes completely full, printing will be no longer
possible.

The printer may be running low on ink. If so replace the ink cartridges. to verify this take the print cartridges out and see if the same condition persists, then put them back. If it is laser printer try replacing/refilling the toner cartridge. Also find out whether any software monitoring utility is installed for the printer. In that case you can see the ink/toner levels. Try reading the manual if you have that all with you, it may be helpful in pinpointig the problem. It may contain troubleshooting information for the particular printer. Sometimes paper jam will be also indicated like this....If so remove the back cover and find out whether paper or peices of paper is there.

I have removed a small peice of paper...I cannot see any other paper jams. I have replaced the ink cartridges, turned the printer on & off, re-started computer. The light persists in blinking orange, then green for a second (to taunt me I think!!) then blinking orange again. It will not print. Any suggestions appreciated.

My printer makes a rumbling sound but does nothing, what can I do to repair it or is it done? I love my printer.
