MP520 suddenly stops working

karelk — Sun, 24 Sep 2017 15:31:04 GMT

Hi All,

My Canon MP520, which I already have for quite a few years, suddenly does not print anything.

It does all the noises and movements as if it were printing, but only blank pages come out.

The computer nor the printer driver are the problem, because when I do a copy on the printer itself, the printer is trying, but again, no ink comes out. The nozzle check test page also comes out empty.

It appears that all nozzles are blocked at the same time.

However, last time I printed was approximately three weeks ago - but it has been idle for longer times and never had any issues.

I have done normal cleaning (I see the ink levels dropping in the printer status window) and I have done deep cleaning (the ink levels dropped some more), so ink actually can come out.

It hasn't been ridiculously hot, dry or cold lately.

What could have happened? I love this printer; does anyone have any tips to make it print again?

Many thanks,

Karel
