    Thank you for the tip in your video! I had problems with the printhead on my MG7120 a few years ago, cleaned it, and got it working again. When an error came up last week saying I had the wrong printhead, I skipped the cleaning and ordered a third-party printhead off Amazon. Once I swapped out the old one with the new, I was surprised to get the B200 error because I knew the new one was clean. Lucky for me, I found your video, followed the tip at the end, and it worked!

    I know this video is from 4 years ago but man did it just save my butt! I wish technology companies would just come out and help fix it like you did instead of letting us all struggle! SO THANK YOU!

      Ciao ho smontato la testina pulita asciugata ma dopo qualche ora il problema si è ripresentato,a te ha funzionato questo di chiudere tutto appena parte

    • @shaaronie

      @@quattrocchi71 You will need to make sure the print head is not in the starting position. I unplugged the printer and manually moved it far to the left. I then powered it on with the lid open; I believe that is the key. Once it starts cycling, close the lid and that did it for me. Good luck to you!

    Thanks very much. Followed this method. Powered up when the carriage was in the parked position but with all covers open. As soon as the carriage moved I shut everything and the printer reset correctly. Thanks again.

      Mine was in the "parked" position, so I moved it to the center, then plugged it in, closed it up and presto, it's working.

    Thank you so much for your help. I really admire the fact that you recorded and posted this video to help others even though you had not done videos before or posted on UA-cam, you still wanted to help others who are stuck like you were. Your the kind of selfLESS person that this world needs more of today. Thank you again.

    @cosmicpickle6562 Рік тому

    Well THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I viewed numerous other videos about clearing/fixing this B200 error. Only one other was really helpful in that it showed all the steps on exactly how to get the print head out, etc. But once I had seen how to get the print head out and all the other steps (including buying and installing brand new ink cartridges although the old ones still seemed fine), I was still getting the error. The 'fix' was the trick that you showed as far as powering up the printer with the various parts still open, then quickly closing them during the power-up-and it worked! My next step was to buy a new print head (which I don't really want to do) because I need a printer like the Pixma 922 to print on CDs and DVDs (a feature you just don't find anymore, sadly in printers).
    THANK YOU AGAIN!
    -Gary

  • @shaaronie
    @shaaronie 7 місяців тому

    Fixed! I can't believe it! I bought three printers because of this error. The print head replacements or repair were about the same cost. I was determined not to buy a fourth. And now I am going to have three working printers! Thank you and God bless you too!

    OMG, You have no idea how much of a True life saver. I Talked my aunt into buying a cheap ink and she doesn't use her printer that much. She is a person who plays the Blame game on everybody Even if it's 10 years down-the-line you may have touched her printer one time in your whole life and its your fault. Anyways Every time I knew they she wasn't going to be home I would sneak over and work on this printer and couldn't get rid of that code and she had never seen it. Finally your video have saved the day. Thank you so Much

Doing it without doing that didnt work, but I would have never known without your video. You have a nice narrator voice too!!!! HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!

    Thank you!!! Owned my Canon MX922 for at least 3 or more years then suddenly got the dreaded B200 error message. Referred to the owner's manual which was useless! Watched several videos verifying the B200 message was nothing more than a clogged printhead. Removed the ink cartridges and the printhead and thoroughly rinsed the printhead. Let it dry. Thanks to YOUR video I only rinsed the printhead once then aligned it as you indicated before turning on the power. Works great! (3/14/2021)

    same story as you. I have cleaned the head everyday for 5 days now. hot water, alcohol, every thing. tried cleaning the sensors, tried rebooting... on an on an on. I dont have money for a new one but I researched some anyway. This printer is 7 years old, but only used like 10 times a month.
    I just couldnt believe this was the end of its life.
    But your trick worked. THANK YOU!

I started looking on UA-cam for a review for a different printer and decided to watch this video as one more try to fix the problem and omg this solved the problem. Saved me the 250 dollars and let me keep this printer i love. Thank you so much. Words can't tell you how thankful I am

    yesss! just fixed my b200 error. I tried it 5 times, no luck.. then the last time, i was about to order a new print head and looking for the correct part number, I moved the cart to the left, but just before it slides into the printer. Plugged in the power, switched it on, closed everything during start up... and it's working just fine!! Just printed my nozzle test page and looks perfect. So Red Joyce, thanks a lot for posting this video.

  • @missmarie658
    @missmarie658 3 роки тому

    THANK YOU! I cleaned and cleaned. Still didn't work. Bought a new print head from China. Still didn't work. Watched the other guys video, still didn't work. Found and watched yours. Didn't realize I had to close the machine quickly before cycle finished. Now both print heads work!
    I love this machine! Has lots of added features.
    I wish China made things to last 50 years like when USA did it's own manufacturing. It is a wasteful country with max product life designed to last less than 3 years and buy again. All those tons of un-recyclable plastic machines setting off toxic gasses as they smolder in the heat, sitting in our landfills and California bans straws and plastic bags.
    Build things to last. Bring back USA made in America manufacturing and save thousands over the course of a lifetime on just one product alone and clean up our earth.

    I had watched another video from 303 Electronics quickly going through the process, but I do appreciate your breakdown of the steps you went through, and that the KEY was having the print head out during power-on. It may have been shaky, but this was a good breakdown.
    I just finished running a nozzle print test after removing and putting my ink cartridges back in (didn't even replace them), and all seems good now!

    Wow I haven't look at this video in forever. I'm not a UA-cam guy I just made it because it fixed it for me and wanted to help other and it looks like it has for many. Sorry for you that have given this video a thumbs down if it didn't work for you. One thing is you have to have everything open, the print head moved out of the parked (not all the way to the right), power it on and close it all up fast and you may have to do it a few times to get the timing down.

    Also a B200 error on my MG7150... cleaned the head several times and followed your instructions and it works for a moment.
    Followed by cleaning or deep cleaning and when I tried to print the nozzle patern the printer jumpes directly to the B200 error.
    Also unpowered for a night and started over again accoring to your instructions and same cleaning and printing the nozzle. Again B200...
    Bougth later on a used MG7150 whith origininal cartridges and seller told me he always used original cartridges.
    Cartridges were almost empty and replaced them with my cheaper cartridges (which worked for years without problems).
    A week later on this "new"MG7150 a B200 error. Again same procedure and it worked till the first print, again a B200.
    Tried your procedure several times and still B200 comming up at the first print.
    And now desperate... and bought a new Epson Expression Photo XP-970 after 25 years of Canon-printers, sometimes with problems but most of the time working perfect.
    I think Canon has updated the printer software and therfore it's cousing a B200 error when using cheap cartridges.
