Canon MX490 is in an error state

Ever since we had a power outage, I have been unable to print anything. I always get the above message. I have uninstalled the entire thing and reinstalled... and am still getting the same message. 

 

This is the first Canon printer I have owned... and possibly the last! Yes, I'm frustrated.

 

Any help at all would be welcome.

 

Thank you.

I seem to have the same problem. My printer satus says ' this printer is performing another operation' I NEED HELP PLEASE. Thank you kindly, Freda

I would appreciate a solution to the above situation. This is the last time i will accept a Canon printer (my husband bought).

 

If there is no interest in helping users, then WHY do you have this forum - just to let people vent?

Since our power was off a couple of hours  my computer and my iphone does not connect to my printer

 

It is a pixma mx490 which i purchased after christmas.  It will scan and  print directly on the printer.
