Canon Pixma MX860, B200 error; nothing fixes it so far

mhintonva4 — Sun, 30 Jul 2017 20:38:09 GMT

I've tried (1) forcing the printhead to the left and forcing the lid closed as it passes the halfway mark. I've tried (2) pushing the on/copy/print/scan/memory buttons multiple times as I turn on. And I've tried replacing the printhead. The B200 error message just won't go away. Is there anything new on the horizon I can try? I will try Canon Support tomorrow, but am not particularly optimistic, based on what I read here.

any luck with this one I have the pixma mx926 which is the later model and this code b200 is now coming up on my machine after a reset and 2 or three pages printed. Bloody frustrating as I had the mx860 before this and the power supply died 2 times but no b200 code on that one. I sent it to the rubbish dump

We ended up dumping the MX860 printer. I was never able to sold the problem. And we decided to upgrate to a Canon megatank printer, so we don't have to change one of 5 ink cartridges everytime we turn around. So far, we're pleased. Good luck to you.

Anyone still own a working model of ther Pixma MX860 printer. I've dealt with errorcode B200 in the past. First time the rapid on and off tricks after the print cartridge tray slides to the left resolved it. the seocnd time i had to purchase a new cartridge tray and everything worked fine for almost a year. Tried replacing it but kept receiving used cartridge trays that were leaking ink when I received them. Returned 3 of them before giving up on that approach. Tried reinstalling the drivers and software. Tried forcing the cartridge tray process again and surprisingly got the normal print screen to come up on the display. When I tried to print a document, I received an error message that said the printer was offline and to check my connnection. The printer shut itself down and now the printer won't turn back on at all.
