Printer doesn't start up - Canon MP610 Photo All-In-One Printer

First confirm if the printer is recognized by your system,and check the printing history to see if there is a queue. If there is, delete them and restart your system. This time, make sure it\'s recognized, then resend your instruction to print.

If in windows go to my computer on desktop and it should show the disc location and you can click and run it. You can also click start, run and type in disc drive letter with :and enter.

Try to unplug the power adapter (black box) at the back of the printer for about 1 minute. If it doesn't work, try to update the firmware of your printer: http://bit.ly/ghfW8H.

If those steps doesn't work and your printer is still under warranty, please contact our technical support team to have the printer replaced.

Hi,
Just go to printers and faxes and right click on the printer's icon,then select resume/start.
If that doesn't solve it,turn your printer off and disconnect from the PC.
Restart the PC too,and then connect the printer again.
Now check the status of the printer.

Hope this helps.Thanks!

@msat538,
I believe your printer problems are unrelated to your browser update. You likely have a few failed capacitors on your printer's logic board. I have a HP C6180 all in one printer that started displaying an ink system failure message. Eventually it powered off then on by iteslf every 15 seconds or so, making the printer unusable. Take the logic board cover off (on the C6180 is is on the right end of the printer), remove the logic board and look for failed capacitors (they will be puffed on the top (see image). If this is the case, you will have to have them replaced (easily done with a soldering pen). The replacement parts are inexpensive (less than $1.00) I hope this helps.

Go to Control Panel/Printers. Right click on your printer's name, and hit Print Test Page. If printer prints a page out, then the problem is likely with the software you're using to print - make sure you have selected the right printer in the dropdown. If the printer's name doesn't show in the Printers folder of Control Panel, the driver for it has not been installed. Do so and try again.

Try these things:

1. place a doc to scan in the scanner. Close the lid and hit MENU, COPY document, START.

If that doesn't work you'll need to contact kodak. If it does then try this next:

2. Check for ADMINISTRATOR rights.

1. RIGHT CLICK on the kodak icon and select Properties > Compatibility tab > Run this program as an administrator
2. Select RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR
3. click APPLY
4. click OK

Then try scanning again. If it still doesn't work then-

Reload the driver:

1. select Start > Run.
2. Type %windir%, then click OK.
3. Double-click twain_32.
4. Right-click Kodak, then select Delete.
5. Insert the KODAK All-in-One Printer Software CD into the appropriate drive, then go to (cd drive: > printer > scanner.
   Double-click aioscannr.msi, then follow the instructions to remove it
6. Then go to cd drive: > printer > scanner, then double-click aioscannr.msi, and follow the instructions to install the file.
7. Open Home Center Software
8. Select Scan Documents and Pictures.
9. Scan a document

If it still doesn't work then you'll need to take it in for service.

Your printer doesn't support automatic stapling, In fact it doesn't support much at all. It is a single funcion printer meaning that it doesn't have fax or scanning, printing only. You would of got it for about $50 right? Sorry but it has no stapler.

Open front front panel and just check there is no "PAPER JAM". If so carefully remove all including any torn pieces.

Check the following information for reset the printer cartridge.......
