Pixma G4200 error code 5B00

My printer stopped printing magenta, then after trying to clean the nozzles the yellow stopped.  Looking inside I saw the tubes with ink were empty.  Looking through the manual(s) it looked like I need to do a ink flush or system cleaning but when I tried that it beeped and starting showing error code 5B00.  I've found some reference to putting it in service mode to reset a counter, is there any official documentation on that?

 

  The printer is about 2 years old and still on the initial ink and I recently had to replace a warped print head.

Canon is such a scam, tricking you into getting a big tank ink refill but then tricks you into buying a new printer because this code "5b00" is something that the user cannot service on their own.
