Error E4

E4= paper jam. Check all your feed areas and make sure they are clear. Then reset your printer and begin you print again. If all areas are clear and your still getting an E4 reading you may have damaged a sensor clearing a previous paper jam. If a reset wont clear your error then your printer may need to be repaired. It would probably be cheaper to simply replace your old printer for a new one. Hope this helps Shannon

What is de code E4 E5?

Those codes mean the following --

E4 - No ink.
E5
- The ink cartridges are not installed or a non-supported

Did you just recently change a cartridge? This would be indicative of why you are getting these two
messages.

1/ Check that you removed all protective wrapping from the new cartridge.
2/ If (1) does not clear, then remove the cartridge and with a alochol swab clean the print head pads the
reinstall the cartridge.

Mp145

A Canon MP145 E4 Error Code means that your Printer didn't detect the Ink Cartrigde. It sometimes happen when you're using a non-original cartridge or infusing it. When Canon Printer detect this abnormality, the first Canon self defense system is by Stop Printing. And then displaying some messages on your Computer Screen, indicating that your ink cartridge have to be replaced because it's EMPTY.
Below are the manual way to correct this problem :
1. Turn On Your Printer. 2. Wait Till The Printer Led Screen Show The Error Code ( E4). 3. Then Press and Hold Black & Color Button for about 5 - 10 seconds.
Hope that your problem is solved.Dont forget to give a positive feedback after pressing the accept button.

E6 flashes

Dear rashid,
It seems that ink level of the cartridge is not detected properly. Did you refill you r cartridge?. To fix this problem press START button (colour or black). This solution is applicable for E4 and E16 too.
