My Canon MG7120 printer/scanner suddenly quit printing...

TheJonnyBoy — Thu, 01 Oct 2020 02:47:01 GMT

I just started having this issue. I was printing some documents yesterday, around 15 pages, then it quit printing. First I thought it was because a couple of ink cartridges were low, so i replaced ALL the ink cartridges (all official new Canon cartridges). No help, and I cannot get the pattern to print to check for clogging or alignment. Test sheets will not print

I cleaned and deep cleaned the heads - No help.

I tried to aligned the print head - Nothing printed, so could not align

I see this issue has happened in the past, but I couldn't find an actual fix in the threads I looked at.

Please, if anybody has figured this out, speak up, and thanks in advance. I suspect a bad print head.

Hi TheJonnnyBoy,

First, please make sure that the tape is removed from each ink tank:

Next, please print a test page:

https://ugp01.c-ij.com/ij/webmanual/Manual/W/MG7100%20series/EN/BG/bg-maintenance1200.html

Once printed, please cmpare your printout to this example:

https://ugp01.c-ij.com/ij/webmanual/Manual/W/MG7100%20series/EN/BG/bg-maintenance1300.html

If the black grid or any color bars are missing, please perform a deep cleaning and then print another test page.

After multiple deep cleanings, if your PIXMA MG7120 does not print correctly, your PIXMA MG7120 would require service. You can try replacing the printhead, but please note, the issue can be caused by other parts than the printhead. There are no returns on parts purchased from Canon.
