Canon MP130 "Check Ink Tank" Error
Hello. Thank you in advance for anyone who may be able to assist me.
My girlfriend's got a Canon MP130 that she's had for a couple of years. Recently it started feeding paper crookedly and then chewing it up. She found a piece of paper caught inside and removed it... but now the red Alarm light is flashing non-stop and the display screen reads "CHECK INK TANK". There's nothing in any documentation that I can find about this message. The only thing I can find online is in a thread on some site about cleaning waste ink tanks, but no one answered the inquiry about this particular error, so I have no idea if it's related somehow. Does anyone know what this error means and what we can do about it? Again, thanking you for your time. |

Canon MP130 "Check Ink Tank" Error
I will admit to being relatively ignorant of Canon printers, but it is
possible there are two separate issues here, and the first one may be resolved (the paper transport issue). I would, for a moment, trust the printer and look to the ink tanks and see if something is perhaps not installed fully, or the ink tank is empty of ink, or some other problem. If you have another ink tank, perhaps test it with that. Art Baphomet wrote: Baphomet wrote: Hello. Thank you in advance for anyone who may be able to assist me.

There may still be some paper inside the printer somewhere, but we sure can't get to it, if there is. I guess we're taking the printer into the shop... |

Did you ever get this problem resolved? My son is getting the same error and I can find nothing online to address it.
