Brand New Canon Pixma MX922 Error Code inquiries

[Anonymoususar]

Hello,

I just recieved my Canon Pixma MX922 in the mail today, and after unboxing it and attempting to set it up, I get two errors; 
Error 6000, and Error 6001. Both codes just seem to alternate with which one shows up whenever I restart the printer, and I have no idea how to fix it as this is completely brand new. No paper has been inside of it, but when it starts up the printer makes a noise as if its searching for paper to use, I think.

Does anyone know how I can fix this? I'd like to not have to send it back for a replacement in this weather.

Apparently this is still an issue more than 2 years later. Just received a replacement MX922 via UPS for one with malfunctioning hardware today and immediately received error code 6000. Now what??? I really don" want to waste another day with on the phone with Canon tech support being passed off from one tech to another. 😛

I have received 1 from HSN and 1 from Canon. Both are throwing codes 6000 and 6001

Hi Markdickenson68,

The 6000 error is a generic internal error code.  To resolve the 6000 error, please follow the following steps:

 1.  Turn off the printer and disconnect the power cord and USB cable.

 2.  Remove paper from the automatic sheet feeder (in the back).

 3.  Gently pull jammed paper out, if any.

     3-1.  If paper is visible from the ASF, use both hands to pull the paper out slowly.

     3-2.  If paper is visible from the paper output slot, use both hands to pull the paper out slowly.

 4.  If the paper tears and a piece of that remains inside the printer, open the printer cover and remove the paper from inside the printer.

 5.  Check ASF with a bright light to check for obstructions.  Remove any if found.

 6.  Open the rear cover to check if the paper is jammed.

 7.  Pull out the cassette and check if the paper is jammed inside the cassette area.

 8.  Load paper back into the ASF or cassette.

 9.  Reconnect the power cord, turn on the printer and confirm that the Alarm light is off. (If there was any jammed paper remaining in the printer, the paper may be automatically ejected.)
