Error message code B504

I am getting an error message of B504 on my printer, I have replaced the ink tanks and I have unplugged to reboot. I did a deep cleaning of the print head, error message is still showing when I try to print. What else can I do?

My Canon MB2320 will not allow me to replace the ink cartridge. I open the front but the cartridges will not come to the middle where I can extract and replace. What's the problem?

i had my MB2320 officejet printer for 16 months and all of a sudden i get this error. the worst thing about it i was told by a tech support from canon that i need a new printer since they can't fix it. 4 months over warranty. what a waste. Now looking for something more reliable with a longer warranty. i searched every where on the internet for help and ttips.. none out there that will let me keep mine.

HP is looking good right now.

I am having the same issue with my Maxify MB5120. I have tried turning it off and on, unplugging it and waiting 10 minutes then plugging it back in, cleaning it with canned air. Nothing. I keep getting the same message.

Hi rreese62,

This is a general hardware error code. Since the steps you took did not resolve the issue, the printer would need to be replaced.

Hi Arthur.

Thank you for your response; I appreciate it.

Wow… now that’s what I call a ripoff. I will never purchase another Canon printer and tell anyone who asks not to purchase a Canon printer. I realize that $200 may not seem like a lot of money, but a printer should not have to be replaced after only 18 months. This is not the first Canon printer that I’ve purchased and crapped out just over a year. I thought the first time it was just a one time incident, but now I believe it is the maker.

Canon makes excellent cameras, but they need to stay away from making printers.

Happy New Year!!!
