Ouch! Particularly when the print head costs so much. You may be able to claim for a replacement from CRC-Taskron, that probably should be your first port of call. It *might* be worth swapping with the old head (and maybe back again) if you kept it - I absolutely can't say whether that would...

Well, I bought a new print head which arrived today. And all is now working correctly. Phew! Almost as much as a new printer, but I get to keep my iP4950 with its rear paper feed and CD print tray. Thanks for the advice, folks, particularly 'The Hat'.

Hi, 'the Hat', thanks again for responding. Yes, after reading a number of user reviews of the 7250, some of which were far from happy with the tray paper feed system, for example one said it could not handle A4 size photo paper (!), I am indeed going to take that leap of faith. Hopefully I'll...

Yes, 'The Hat', I saw your other comment on the forum. But I've been very happy using second source inks from Prestige Cartridge - 2 years without any problems on my 4950 (until now - and I don't blame the ink), good colour matching and very economical. So really the opinions I'm after are...

As some may have seen in the thread 'PGBK dead after B200 error' I have two choices facing me - buy a replacement print head for my ip4950 and hope that solves the problem OR buy a new ip7250 printer. My 4950 is just over two years old and probably has plenty of life left in the waste pads. I...

Thank you Lukasz. The 'trick' I used to cancel the B200 message was item 3 (and 4c) on this page: http://fix-your-printer.blogspot.co.uk/2011/10/how-to-fix-error-b200-on-canon-printers.html I also removed the print head and thoroughly cleaned it, but no joy. Cheers, Peter.

Thanks, 'The Hat'. I was afraid of that. But the B200 error message doesn't appear now - is there any method for performing a full 'factory' reset to clear the printer memory? Coincidentally before joining this group I telephoned Tasktron for advice, but as you might have guessed they are...

Hi, folks, New here, hoping for some advice. I live in NE England, my Canon ip4950 printer threw up a B200 error yesterday. It had been printing fine although showing empty tanks for some inks. I'd just printed a small drawing (black ink), which showed no signs of ink running out. Then...
