I have a printer Canon Pixma MP 160 and I tried turning it on and off upside down to reset it. It does not work. What else should I try. There is nothing stuck in the rollers. It is E 3 blinking. When it goes to print the paper the paper just get stuck as it starts to print. Please help.
1) With the printer powered off but connected to a power source, press the Power button while pressing and holding
the Stop/ Reset button.
2) When the Power is lit, press the Stop/Reset button two times while pressing and holding the Power button.
3) When releasing the Power button and the Stop / Reset button (regardless of order), the printer will move into a
service mode. (Waiting for menu selection)
4) When the on/off lights in green, press the Stop/Reset button the specified number of time(s) according to the
function listed in the table below.(Each time the Stop/Reset button is pressed, the LED lights alternately in
orange and green, starting with orange.)note: press 4 times for waste ink counter reset.
