I had this problem. Nothing seems to be stuck in the machine. It is printer MG5750. How can I reset it please?

PULL THE PRINT HEAD OUT AND WASH IT IN HOT WATER. GET ALL THE OLD INK OUT. IT WORKED FOR ME FOR ABOUT THREE MONTHS BEFORE I HAD TO DO IT AGAIN. MP600

Ihave a canon MX310. I JUST PUT REPLACEMENT CARTRIDGES in my printer. The Printer has a flashing yellow alarm and a "Checck Printer 5100" error message. There is no paper jam. The printer carriage goes to the left and then reeturns to the right and stops with a double click sound, when I power it on. It will not stay in the position where I can remove the cartridges. Help

I got this message on my parents’ printer. Check where the ink cartridges are to see if there is any paper bumping against them. Remove and restart the printer. That did the trick for me.
