The gray ink has run out. There is no place locally that has any. I ordered it online. It is not here yet.
I need to scan something that will not be printed.
When I try the printer will not recognize the computer.
If I try directly on the printer it shuts itself off.
I tried holding STOP. That did nothing.
How can you scan something when the ink is out?
Wasn't there a law suit about this very thing?
Help. Is there anyway to circumvent this.
BTW, I spent a loooong time trying to get this answer from Canon directly. It was insane.

I have the same problem. Since there is no workaround for this, I'll just wait for the class action lawsuit to play out. Good luck Canon!

Wow. That is so wrong!
Canon breaks the scanner if you run out of ink?!
No more Canon gear for me. What a shame.
