Canon mp 160 service error 5100 & e2-2

Sir
i have replaced new cartriges but it still displays errors 5100 & e22
please help me sir

  • dsr15 Jan 03, 2009

    I have a Pixma MP160. It used to work fine, but now it always displays "E22" or Error 22. I checked the canon website and followed all of the advice there:

    Solutions for e22
    Issue: ERROR LED: E, 2, 2

    1. Disconnect and reconnect power cord to reset the device
    2. Remove Packing Material MP160 / MP180 / MP460
    3. Reseat ink cartridge (MP160 / MP180 / MP460)

    But none of these get rid of the error. Any other ideas?

I had same error and tried the reset fix shown elsewhere on this site. It did not fix the problem.
The problem was mechanical as the cartridge cradle was not returning to the far right hand side (viewed from front of printer). I cleaned and lubricated the whole cartridge slide.  Use silicon grease to lubricate the slide.  The ink rest also needs to move to the far right so lubricate that slide channel too.
This can all be achieved by removing just the front panel (lugs only) and then the right hand side panel (4 screws and bottom lug)

Canon iR-2016 System erro E007

The erreor code E007 has to do with the fixing ***'y upper film ***'y or roller. It is saying that the film is not moving in and out of "HP" Most of the time it means that the fusing film is torn and not moving properly. If you are getting paper jams in the fusing area and or unfixed or smeared copies. You most likly need to have the fusing film ***'y replaced. It could also be that it is out of place and needs to be readjusted. The only problem is that it's a little tricky to get to and not a bad idea to have a new film to replace the old one while you have it out. Good Luck
