Canon Error 5B00 Reset (SOLVED) Ink Waste Counter | Support Code 5B00 5800 Pixma G4200 7 Blinks

Canon Error 5B00 (SOLVED) FREE Ink Waste Counter Reset | Support Code 5B00 5800 Pixma G4200
Your canon printer light is blinking 7 times amber or orange and 7 times green? It is probably the waste ink sponge counter error that froze the printer and needs to be reset.

This will work with many models of canon pixma printers, with screens and without screens to fix the error 5B00 (looks like 5800 also)

Buying something off amazon?

A Thousand Times...THANK YOU for this video!!! My relatively new printer (have not even gone through my initial supply of ink!) started not printing in black and I couldn't figure out why. I performed all of the "cartridge cleaning" steps and whatever else was suggested in the printer app. Then, went online after finally figuring out the error code and researched a couple of different videos on repairing the issue. frustrated that this video wasn't one of the first 4 or 5 that popped up on my screen. After trying to put the printer in service mode multiple times according to the other sources instructions and getting nowhere, I finally gave up in frustration. The printer has been sitting on my desk for a few months now and I finally got so desperate that I was planning to go out THIS afternoon to purchase a new one after doing a little research.
Decided to try to fix our printer one last time and looked up the error code again. This time, the same few videos I had watched the first time popped up, but because I could tell that I had already viewed them previously, I went to the next one. THIS ONE!!! Worked the first time. I can not believe how easy it was and how much time I wasted on the previous ones. So very frustrating. THANK YOU for your very thorough explanation and description of what to expect. I'm bookmarking this one!

Why after i click "stop" for three times and then the "on" button, the printer turns off?

[evilinside]

Why not just show us how to change the ink absorber?

[derekgoad]

any idea why my G4200 is turning off when I attempt to print the Service Info page? I put the printer in service mode, then press stop 3 times followed by power and the device turns off.

This fix didn't work on my Canon MX860 -- I followed all of your steps but it doesn't print anything (won't pull the paper from back sheet feeder) -- just keeps showing Error 5B00 on display.

This does not work on my MX 860. After pressing Stop 3 times & then pressing power off, my machine stays off and does not print the Service message.

Thank you so much for this video. The only one that actually gave correct info on how to put the printer in service mode and press the buttons the correct amount of times. Here in Brazil there are so many people making 15 minutes videos giving a lot of wrong info, it sucks. Even printer store attendants gave us a lot of BS! Thnks again, mate

Did not work for me, printer keeps shutting off after going into service mode them clicking stop 3 times and power button it shuts down after making some noise.

Canon MB2720

[kharingilbert]

Worked exactly as you instructed. Very clear instructions. I have the G3100. Thanks!

Worked on my G4210, but to get into service mode it was holding the "Color" button + Power...only to enter service mode.
After that, everything was as per your vid.
Thank you!

[alanabbas]

For my canon MX410 these instructions did not work. I followed the video step by step, once the LCD screen turns to a black square, my printer did not print anything. It made some sound and it actually pulled the paper through the printer but nothing was printed. I still have the same error. Any thoughts on how I can fix this?

[teedurden]

Hi. I have the same error code. But my printer is MG2540S. I followed the same steps but it is not working. Please help. Thanks

[lorenebrown]

Thank you! Worked for Canon PIXMA G3202. Love my PIXMA!

[ConceptClearPoint]

my printer g2000 not showing any orange light on pressing the stop button. what should i do for this?

[allionywka]

Thank you for your video. My didn't go to second option, to 3 times command, it's stopped, no reaction to anything. What can it be, and what can I do?

[ezralimm]

You legend. Also note, you dont need to ink flush. I do it manually with syringes to refill the cap. A standard syringe will fit the holes and you can manually suck in the ink into the tubes. Just remember that when the caps are OPEN, the ink flow is stopped (to prevent it from leaking backing into the thank while refilling).

I have a Canon MX320 and tried this method to fix the 5B00 error message. I got to the point where I press the stop button in order to print out the first sheet of paper, but the printer shut down. I tried this 3 times with the same result. Any suggestions? I did remove the ink pads and cleaned them and tried it again, but still, it just shut off at the same point. Okay - never mind. I just shut off and restarted the printed a couple of times, and the error message has disappeared. Seems like I can print now!

[gerardoarambilletecia]

Hello. I did the procedure, but the printer (after pressing 3 times stop bottom and then power botton) does not take the sheet and then power light turn off. Can you help me?

[hamidahamin]

Thank you, it works for my pixma E460 printer.Great help
