Hi,

Please unplug the printer and then open it and try to move the ink carriage over to the middle so you can access the inks. If you are able to access the inks, one at a time take a ink cartridge out and put it back in making sure it clicks into place. You will want to do this for all the ink cartridges. Once you are done, close the printer and plug in the power cord and power on the printer. 

If the error does not clear, the print head may be faulty and you would need to replace your printer. 

If the printer is outside it's 1 year warranty, you do qualify for the Canon Upgrade program. This is for out of warranty units which have been diagnosed to require service or are incompatible with a new or upgraded system. This program allows you the opportunity to purchase a replacement product discounted from the list price.
