Hi all,
I few years ago, my girlfriend received a brand new Canon ip5200 for christmas. Shortly thereafter, she moved in with me. As I had my own printer, we never even took the 5200 out of the box. A few months ago, my printer died, and I decided to finally hook up the 5200.
I followed all the instructions in the manual, and installed the drivers on my computer. While test printing, I got a paper jam. I believe I cleared the jam, but ever since I can't get the printer to work.
I now get the warning lamp whenever I turn on the printer. The orange light flashes 12 times, alternating with the green power, before the green light holds steady.
I know the printer must be out of warranty, as it was stored away, unopened for 2 or 3 years. But it has never been used.
Can anyone solve this?
Thanks,
