I have a Canon s400 printer that I just replaced the ink cradle and cartriges right out of the box...the old cradle and cartriges worked fine....the new ones dont print at all...get nothing with head alignment or the other adjustments...

must not be set in or alined right

Dave...the s400 printer has a lever that pulls the cradle down and tight after the cradle is installed...not much I can mess up there...??

My Canon BJC-80 printer shows an error light and beeps when I try to print. The error message says I am not connected. I have going thru all the self-help printing guides, have checked and rechecked all connections, have checked that the printer is the default and that I have the correct port. Does anyone know why I can't print. It just happened all of a sudden and has been working fine for 3 years. thanks, kathy

Kathy, I have just come onto this site looking for an answer to the same problem. My Canon is a BJC - 4310sp can anyone help us both? thanks Bev

I had a Canon S400 Printer working with the USB, while it was set over Win Me all was fine, i did upgrade may OS to XP Pro and it start to work fine, but after a couple of OS Updates it has start to deniy to work, the usb is unable to recognize the printer even upgrading the Canon Driver, the cable is fine i have tested, but i'm asking for help while i test the paralell option. Thx!

Help, I want to avoid a problem. What is the correct way to disconnect your printer, so that your machine doesn't go looking for it and flash an error message? I think I know what to try but if there is a professional way to do it I would prefer to do that, as I plan to give the tower unit to a friend and don't to leave any error messages for her to contend with. Thanks so much Constance
