Hi, Could you please further explain exactly how you went about doing the "deep cleaning". I pressed the menu button to get into "maintenance" but it wouldn't go there. 😞 I kept getting the B200 code. I'm not sure what you meant when you said," I instructed the connected computer". Excuse my ignorance. ;^) I've been fooling around with this thing for 2 days. If you could help me, I would really appreciate it. Thanks! :^D

I have the dreaded B200 error on my MX922 Canon printer. My first sign of trouble was the appearance of diverging PGBK lines in a head alignment test. To correct, one source advised cleaning the printhead. I did so, both in low pressure fresh water and in an ultrasonic cleaner. After drying I reinstalled the printhead and cartidges and, voila, B200 appeared. I have followed all, I think, of the tricks this forum has suggested and no luck. B200 shows no matter what I do.
The printer is connected via ethernet to my computer and has been used little over the last few years so it is in good physical shape despite a couple of slaps across it's B200 ears.
Does anyone have a definitive procedure that should work to clear the B200 curse? I have a mean Scottish streak that make me want to fix things rather than replace them - thrifty perhaps, cheap more likely.

You can try this. Sometimes when the machine sits inactive for a while the ink dries hard. Put the head in a few inches of Luke warm water and let it sit overnight. If you have a turkey blaster poor some water inside the printer head directly on the little silver heads. You might have thought you removed the old ink but you'll be surprise of how much can be still dried up inside.
good luck

Thanks oldtreker. I have tried multiple washes and also ultrasonic cleaning but still get B200. I saw elsewhere that if you remove the printhead with the printer off (plug out) and then power up, letting it go through the startup routine without the printhead, the printer should show a 'printhead not installed' error proving(?) the printer itself is okay and the printhead is defective in some way. My guess is I need a new printhead to clear the B200 error. Genuine Canon QY6-0086 printheads are expensive but still cheaper than a new printer with the same features as the MX922.
