Canon PIXMA MP830 All-In-One InkJet Printer - Page 3 Questions & Answers
What are the error codes on my printer,5010 & 6100?
The 5010 error indicates a scanner error. The scanner unit cannot detect the home position, or the scanner unit warming-up is not done properly at power-on. On the LCD, "Scanner is not operating correctly." is displayed.
The 6100 error indicates a logic board error. The check sum value is incorrect in the ROM check at
hard-power-on.
Fixing these errors is more expensive than replacing the printer. Sorry.

My Canon printer does not print the color black, how can I fix?
If you have tried cleaning the nozzles as Oliver suggested. Try setting your paper type to 'high resolution' and try printing. If this works, your circuit board is probably the problem and you need to replace the printer after using up your inks in the 'high resolution paper' print mode
MP830 won't scan
Can you do a stand alone copy?
If so then the scanner driver is corrupt and needs to be un-installed and re-installed.
Canon mp830 cannot print is printing only in color. Put in new black BK8 and PGBK5, but just prints blanks
Could have ruined the head from not proper cooling from the ink supply.
Try to clean the head using 8 oz. hot water (preferably distilled) and 1 oz. ammonia.
Make sure the intake ports are submerged for 30=45 minutes. Dry the head completely and re-install.
Gently tap the PGI5 BLK on a towel and make sure ink comes out.
If so do a deep clean and a head alignment page.
If nopt you may need a print head that I can supply.

When I hit hook to send a fax I hear a click but I
You only hit hook to hear the dial tone or use the machine like a speaker phone. To send a fax you press fax start. If you can't hear a dial tone when you press hook, there is something wrong with the phone line connection, or it's plugged in to the wrong plug on the machine. The phone line goes into the one marked with an L, the other with the pic. of a phone is for an additional telephone.
Paper tray empty, or paper jam at back
Hello, I had same problem with my Pixma 600, when you lift the control panel flap to turn on the printer just below the on off button ther's a small icon of the printer with a green led at the top and one at the bottom. Press the button to the right to change either top paper feed to bottom tray feed or vice versa.Then try again, you may need to load paper in tray at bottom/front on printer.

Why can't I print on cloud print with my canon inkjet mp830. It keeps saying "printer offline"
Hi, you may find that opening port 5222 in your router settings corrects this for you. This is due to Google Cloud Print (GCP) needing to poll your printer, if the port is not open then GCP will not get a response from your printer, therefore will show it as offline.
It is also possible that your firewall is blocking communications so you would need to open the same port (5222) in your firewall / antivirus software.
Warning: Ports are often closed on a router to help prevent unauthorized access to your home network. Opening any additional ports on your router may decrease the overall security of your network.
- To use port forwarding first determine the local IP address of the computer or device you are forwarding the port to.
- Open your router configuration / settings menu.
- Once in the router configuration locate the port forwarding settings, often in a section such as Applications & Gaming or Port forwarding. I would suggest that if you are having difficulties with this to refer to your router documentation or call their support line.
- You will only need to open port 5222.
- Give your new rule a name that you will recognise.
- Next enter the port number 5222, if you are asked for Externet and Internet enter 5222 in both.
- The protocol is TCP.
- Next is the IP address of the computer.
- Don't forget to check the enabled box if there is one and save changes.
If you have any issues with this I would suggest Port Forward web site where specific instructions should be available for your router.

Mp860 black cartridge problem
You do a nozzle cleaning from the maintenance program and it should correct the problem. Also make sure the rollers are clean as well as to not cause streaking.
