What happens it that the power and orange light alternate 21 times, then pause, then 21 times again, etc. Troubleshooting from the manual, none of the remedies work, leaving only the option of callling support, which I just did. Long story short, it's probably a failed print head. I'm sure it can be replaced, but at what cost? I bought this printer off Amazon about 1-1/2 years ago $80 CAD. It's not made anymore and I can only find one for $300, so forget that. It has been a great printer, especially forprinting CD and DVD lables, which few printers will do now without a lot of trial-and-error and fiddling. I always used aftermarket ink cartridges at about $21 for 3 sets because a set of Canon ones cost as much as the printer, and never had a problem. Maybe this contributed to the print head's demise, maybe not. Anyway, I think I got my money's worth. I'm replacing it with a simple $50 PIXMA MG3620 from Walmart.
