Canon Error Fix

[Whizbang]

I just received a used Canon i960 that was purchased very cheap because of an error code that was, well, in error.  The guy got fed up with the fairly new unit and I purchased it for $10.00.  I went to Fixyourownprinter.com and found a "fix."

Here is the quoted post:

1) With the printer power OFF, while pressing the Resume button, press the Power button. (Do not release the
power button.)
2) While pressing the Power button, release the Resume button, press the Resume button again twice, and then
release the Resume button and Power button.
3) The green indicator flashes during initialization.
When the indicator stops flashing and remains on, press the Resume button 4 times to clear waste ink message.
(The indicator toggles between orange and green each time the Resume button is pressed.)
4) Next, press the Power button, and the green indicator will light, and the function will be executed.
5) Turn off the printer then back on and error should clear.


It worked.  I have no idea how this guy knew what he was doing unless he worked for Canon.
