Pixma MG 6230 does not shutdown. Gives wait shutdown message all night long.

Recently I have been unable to shutdown printer. Have pressed buttons but get message that it is shutting down and to wait. After 12 hours, printer still has same message. I cut power to unit and repower up and it restarts but tells me not to kill power unless I use proper shutdon procedures. I updated firmware to 2.010 but still have same problem. I have had the printer for 1.5 years or so and this started recently.

Is it plugged directly into outlet or a power strip?

It is plugged into a power strip and has been for over 9 months with no problem. This started recently.

Have you tried plugging it directly into a wall outlet? It sounds like a power issue

Could not reach the wall outlet but did remove some items plugged into the strip and tried it. It shutdown OK. Will see if it does so when I close down my computer tonight. If not then that was the problem. If it does act up then I will be back.

Thanks
