PIXMA TS6120 printer won't print from cassette tray

[Dave5]

I get the message:

"Support Code                        1000

There is no paper in the rear tray.

Check the following, than load paper and select (OK).

-Align paper guides with the paper.

How to clear               OK"

I don't want to print from the rear tray; I want to print from the cassette tray. I do select the cassette paper type yet the message, above, is always the same. Support Code 1000 just tell how to load the cassette tray.

HELP, please

I have the same issue - it has all of a sudden decided that i should print from rear and not from cassette.  I am considering throwing this printer against the wall to see it will reset.  I have looked at online manual and elsewhere on the web and I cannot see how i can reset this so that it accepts the paper from the cassette. 

I had another printer for years and replaced it with one.  It only started giving me problems within a few months!!

If anyone has any ideas of how to reset the paper tray, let me know.  I turned off and unplugged printer for a few minutes hoping that would reset it but it did not.

Thanks

thanks, glad Canon provided us with pieces of crap printers with forced top load paper entry and a fancy cartridge to STORE paper, but clearly not to feed from.

Now, all 5 Canon TS8220 printers are ALL started every morning default source print from back tray. We have to feed paper one page at a time. The TS8220 will NOT print from cassette tray.

Then, we found out this Canon TS8220 printer had this exact unable to print from bottom cassette tray problem since 2013. That is SEVEN years since this problem has been shown in Google search. Canon has done NOTHING to correct this problem.

This makes us MAD. VERY MAD.

No response what so ever from CANON since 2013.

Found my solution here.  Printing from Adobe was fine, my problem started with Word.  See:

I'll save this for when I next print, thanks for sharing!!

In the PC printer controll panel, we have set the paper source from bottom paper cassette tray.

However, checking the printer, there are NO paper source setting. It default auto set the paper source from back tray.

This printer ignor the PC printer control setting.

You should be able to print from anything.  Shouldn't HAVE to use Adobe.  The problem is cannon
