I am receiving 4 blinking lights on my Pixma Pro 100. I'm receiving a product code error 1660. I have tried reseeding the ink tanks but it's still blinking. Is there any way I can tell exactly which ink tank I need to put a new ink into? All the ink tanks have new or nearly new ink in each ink tank. I saw on the forum for another printer that was having a similar issue that they suggested I clean the contacts. What do I use to clean the contacts and how do I go about cleaning the contacts? I called canon about the issue and their solution was for me to get a new printer. Unless it's absolutely necessary, I prefer not to go that route. I tried unplugging the printer to see if that would work..
as you can see no matter which position, I put the 5 out of 8 tanks in. only 5 colors will work. If I put all 8 in as soon as I put the 6 tank in none will read.
I found out that my problem with the product code 1660 may have been caused by either a problem with the logic board or a problem with the ink carriage. It may br less costly to get a refurbish Canon Pixma Pro 100 for under 4 hundred dollars or a new Canon Pixma 200 for around 6 hundred dollars. The repair cost of the Pro 100 maybe just a little cheaper than a refurbished one. Which one should I get the new 200 or refurbished 100. I already have an excess amount of ink tanks for the Pro 100.
