Canon Pixma IP3000 troubleshooting - I get 12 alternating green/orange lights flashing which is this error according to the service manual:
12 times
ERROR
AP position error [6A00] -
SOLUTION
Sheet feed unit (QM2-1220)
- Logic board ass'y (QM2-1520)*1
The first problem I had was that the machine never would turn on.
At one point I was able to get the machine to turn on and stay on, but it didn't last. I dont know what I did to make it work or stop working again.
However, when the print head is installed, the machine wont turn on at all, other than occasionally flashes green for 1 second. If I cant get a solution soon, I will be selling this as inoperable on Ebay so someone can use for parts. It was about $100 new, but because its so well designed, the limited new ones remaining are selling for $300-400 on Ebay.
I refurbished the machine and even cleaned the 6 diaper waste pads. I have the service manual and found lots of useful disassembly instructions on the internet.
Maybe I have more than 1 problem?
I don't know what to do now. Im at the end and sad to see this one go after 5 years of loyal companionship.
