- Canon mx89* (*=?)
Turned the printer on this AM and got the B200 error. After googling, I cleaned the print head, same thing required by the previous Canon printer a few months before it died about 3 years ago.
After drying the print head and installing, I still get the error. What do I do? Mechanical things are not my strength but with instructions I can usually get something done. (However, on the previous printer after taking it apart to replace the ink absorber pads I was stuck. That's how I ended up with the MX892. (Your welcome Canon.)
I need suggestions on either diagnosing the problem, or for a new printer. If a new printer, I do like refilling cartridges but I'm not sure how who is winning that battle.
Any suggestions or other guidance will be appreciated. I usually print something every few days. Use Precision Colors ink.
