52 Troubleshooting
Make sure that the printer is turned on, and that it is connected securely to the
computer.
If the POWER lamp is off, turn the printer on.
While the POWER lamp is flashing green, the printer is initializing. Wait until the
POWER lamp stops flashing and remains lit green.
If the ALARM lamp is flashing orange, an error may have occurred on the
printer. For details on how to resolve the error, see "ALARM Lamp Flashes
Orange" on page 50.
Make sure that the USB cable is plugged in securely to the computer and the
printer.
If you are using a relay device such as a USB hub, disconnect it, connect the
printer directly to the computer, and try printing again. If printing starts
normally, there is a problem with the relay device.
Consult the reseller of the relay device for details.
There could also be a problem with the USB cable. Replace the USB cable
and try printing again.

The printer has a built-in ink absorber to hold the ink used during Print Head
Cleaning, for example.
This error message indicates that the ink absorber is nearly full.
Press the RESUME/CANCEL button to cancel the error so you can continue
printing.
Before the ink absorber becomes completely full, contact a Canon service
representative. (You will need to replace a particular part of the printer.)
Important
Canon recommends that you call for service as soon as this error occurs. Once
the ink absorber becomes completely full, printing cannot be performed until the
ink absorber is replaced.
