[SOLVED] Canon MP560 Printer

[bluwiz]

Changed ink cartridges - now it won't print...just spits out blank pages.

oh no, I have the exact same printer and am out of ink

Maybe do the header alignment first? Will it print out the test page with all the jagged/straight lines?

Hi

Clean the contact and the print head with alcohol and see if ink runs out of cartridge,

You can also clean cartridge once in the printer to see if something happens.

If nothing you might be ready for another printer

Uh, you did take the protective film off the new cartridge? You never know, I've seen people forget simpler things... Have you tried doing maintenance with the Canon software (if it came with any or if there is any online?)

I figured out that when you change out ink cartridges you have to print something before you can just make a copy.

Your email set me straight. I was trying to make a copy after changing ink cartridges. Once I printed from my computer I was able to make copies without any problems.

Thanks.
