Good video on how to reset B200. I now feel confident I can attempt to fix my printer. If it does not work ok, but your video was very good. Thank you.
I'd been away for 10 weeks and a couple of cartridges had dried out, and I got the B200 message. I removed the printhead and put it in a bowl with 1/2 inch of warm water in it, and let the caked-in ink dissolve and wash out. I moved the head around gently in the water and changed the water several times until it remained almost clear. After drying the printhead with a lint-free cloth, I put it back in the printer and it now works fine. I recommend this fix.
I got a free Canon Pro 1 printer. I plug it it and get the B200 error. I can't install the driver on either of 2 computers. I've never any movement internally when plug it in, only the yellow light blinking. Should I: 1. Disassemble and try to soak/clean the print head? 2. Declare defeat and move onto another project. Open to other thoughts and suggestions how to get this running, or to walk away. I can't move the print head even with the power off.
Hi. Unfortunately, if you tried cleaning printhead manually and the b200 error is still there, you will need a new printhead. This printer has an expensive printhead.
my printer broke with this error when i used wireless LAN as before i was using direct connection. I was using direct connection for 5 yrs.. I moved recently then was hooking stuff back up and decided to try wireless Lan and boom after the first print I did.. I got U052.. did you use wireless? or direct plug in connection? this means this entire Model printer is defect but they are still selling them. I have yet to see anyone fix this
Hi. There are pins on the cartridge carrier that detect ink. Look in there and see if one of the pins is damaged, dirty, or pressed in. Let me know how that goes. I will try to explore more and play with the Canon Printer I have to find a solution for you.
Most likely, the printhead error is causing the carrier to be stuck. You may need to open up the printer and remove printhead, then the carrier will move. You will most likely need a new printhead.
I am surprised this video didn't get more views/likes/comments like the other one I saw here: th-cam.com/video/9-qlcZ2ekvk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=14_fXWwP-YXWsPsq with instructions for manual deep cleaning of printhead, that method involves rinsing and soaking printhead in hot water, then soaking it in 91% rubbing alcohol and drying overnight (don't submerge green circuit board in water/alcohol). This worked temporarily for my Pixma MX922 but will probably need new printhead anyway LOL. Whatever you do, make sure to wear gloves through the process!!!
Excellent video! Straightforward and clear. Didn't need to reset. Deep clean of the print head, which was a MESS, did the trick. Thank you!

Thank you so much for the feedback on video. I really hope it works for you. Have a great day!
Had to take it through the last step in video, but it worked. Amazing!!!
Thank you SOOOOOO MUCH for this clear video T-T It works again with the second attempt, I followed you every step ! Thank you so much !

My model is an MG5320. The B200 alarm didn’t go away. I will try to source a replacement print head and try for a fix. Thank you so very much. Cheers.
You're welcome! I hope you can find a good deal on the printhead.
do you have a video on how to replace the print head?
Hello. This video has different model, but the replacement process is same as MG5220

@@303electronics I haven't cleaned the head manually yet, I still have to take it a part.

Here's the link to a video where I go over a few possible solutions for this:

I tried your video it didn't work for me but after cleaning where cleans the print head off the error went away
Why can't I push my cartidges to the middle?
Most likely, the printhead error is causing the carrier to be stuck. You may need to open up the printer and remove printhead, then the carrier will move. You will most likely need a new printhead.
I have done ALL of these steps. I have a spare printer with a good print head. I removed and swapped it out, my printer still doesn't work.
my error message says C000
Error c000 usually refers to a jam somewhere in the printer. It can be a piece of paper or a small object like paper clip in the printer.
