My Pixma G5020 megatank will not stay on

I've had this printer for a few years now, and it all of a sudden when I push the power button, it tries to power on, the light blinks for a few seconds, and then it turns back off. I can't check the firmware on the printer or check settings because it won't power on all the way. I am unable to connect to the printer now through any of my devices because they all think it is powered off. I've checked the power cord several times, unplugged and plugged back in, and no change. Does anyone know how to solve this issue? I'm hoping it's fixable.

Hi tibunger,

Please connect your PIXMA G5020's power cord directly to a different wall outlet, without a surge protector or power strip.
