Common Canon Error Codes
Canon printers display error codes, blinking lights, and status messages when hardware or software issues occur. Here are the most common ones we encounter.
Support Code 5100 / Carriage ErrorThe print head carriage is stuck or obstructed — often caused by a paper jam, foreign object, or ink buildup.
Support Code 6000 / Paper Feed ErrorPaper feed mechanism failure — rollers may be worn, dirty, or a paper jam is preventing feeding.
Support Code B200 / Print Head ErrorA critical print head error — the head may need cleaning, reseating, or replacement.
Support Code 1700 / Ink Absorber FullThe waste ink absorber is full. Common on heavily used Canon inkjets — requires service to reset and clean.
Printer Offline / Not RespondingThe computer can’t communicate with the Canon printer — check Wi-Fi, USB connection, or reinstall drivers.
No Ink / Ink Cartridge Not RecognizedCanon printers may reject third-party ink or fail to detect genuine cartridges — contact alignment or chip issue.
Paper Jam / Clear Paper PathPaper stuck in the printer — may require careful removal and roller inspection to prevent recurrence.
Canon imageCLASS Toner Error / E-CodeCanon laser printers show E-codes for toner, drum, and fuser issues — each code maps to a specific component.

Daryl has been my go-to-guy for years. I have always found him to be very responsive and great at diagnosing problems. Recently, I had a hard drive failure on a Friday when I urgently needed my computer over the weekend. Daryl was able to get me up and running until he could install a new drive on Monday. A TRUE PROFESSIONAL! We are fortunate to have him in our neighborhood.Read full review
