Hi jvause919,

Please follow these steps to try to resolve this issue:

1. Confirm that your PIXMA MX700 is powered on.

2. Pull open the paper output tray.

3. Lift the scanning unit (printer cover) completely. The print head will move to the replacement position.

4. Open the inner cover.

5. Remove the ink tanks by pressing the tab of each tank.

6. Raise the print head lock lever.

7. Tilt the print head slightly towards the front of the machine and lift out gently.

8. Place the print head in the print head holder and lower the print head lock lever carefully until you hear a click.

9. Insert ink tanks into the print head.

10. Press the mark <PUSH> on the ink tank firmly until you hear a click.

11. Ensure that all the ink tanks are installed properly and the ink tank lamps light red.

12. Close the inner cover and the scanning unit/printer cover.

Hello,

I'm facing the same error with my printer Canon PIXMA IP4200.

I've tried every solution found on the web:

changed 2 ink tanks that were quite empty with new ones
removed and replaced all ink tanks
clean the print head

But nothing has changed, the printer still returns the error "correct print head is not installed".

I printed with no problems few days before this error started.

What can I do more?

Thanks

Hi,

I've solved changing the print head with a new one (second hand actually).

It works now.

Regards, Manuela
