Recently attempting to resurrect a Canon Pro-100 with a B200 error. After exhausting all the usual remedies, I purchased a new 'used' print head and the B200 error ceased.
But a new error code appeared - 19 Alt flashes.
Service tool SST5103_2017 just has codes 002 and 006 that forums indicates normal if major error.
Also removed, cleaned and reattached the 3 flex cables in the head - cartridge assembly
Problem seems to trigger after start purge: head moves left, does a LED dance back-forth and few times then alt 19 orange-white flash.
Checked the QM7-1442 board and the sensor board below - nothing obvious.
Installed a new 3rd party set of cartridges - All carts light up
During startup , if cover sensor is open , maintenance mode in printer properties responds and waits at printer center with opr message ' Cartridge refill' zone .
when sensor is closed, start-up continues, errors out and then printer properties also shows fatal error..
Also placed original print head back in printer with same results.
The prints (when working) were outstanding and really relied on the large format printing.,
Getting ready to scrap this out and get a Canon Pro-200 or 200S
Not sure what the printer is doing when it checks each cart multiple times,
but recall its the the same original fatal error -maybe the sensor below or on the QM7-1442 board.
