not normal. The Printhead could be defective.... but first, try these solutions below: Solution 1: Disconnect the power cable from the printer. Wait 1 hour. Connect the power cable Solution 2: Check and Clean Head

contact pin condition of the carriage unit Check Cable connection especially the carriage FFC canon mg5320 b200 error code Solution 3: Turn off the power Open the panel Turn on the power Wait for print carriage to start moving to the b200 error canon mp560 left. Let it go past half way Before print carriage reaches left hand side shut the cover. Leave the Printer turned on Solution 4: Unplug the power cable. Open the printer Push the whole print head https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Printer-Multifunction-Support/error-b200/td-p/217 mechanic to the center While the printer still open, plug the power and turn it ON. When the printhead still moving and is going to the very LEFT, close the cover. Wait until its boot up. Solution 4a: Take out all of the ink cartridges Lift up the grey bar by where the ink goes Left the print head in the middle of the printer all while the printer was off. Solution http://fix-your-printer.blogspot.com/2011/10/how-to-fix-error-b200-on-canon-printers.html 4b (thank you Jeremy): Clean the plastic head primers/cleaners themselves on the printer (the far right) Solution 4c (thank you Rhiann): Turn off the printer Open the cover Turn on the printer Wait for print carriage to start moving to the left and let it go past half way Before print carriage reaches left hand side (but after going halfway across) shut the cover. Leave the Printer turned on. Solution 4d: (thank you John Wittman) My Canon MX860 locked up with the B200 error when I continued printing without black ink. I removed printhead as described elsewhere and carefully flushed with hot tap water until no further ink waste was present. Reinstalled, but this did not resolve the B200 message and lockout. Removed printhead again and this time removed 2 small screws (with jeweler's scredriver) on printhead to dimantle it. Use care to protect the ribbon cable. Do not try to remove this cable. You will see a complex rubber gasket. Remove this and clean with hot water. Set aside. With screws removed, this will give access for more cleaning of the ink passages. Used hot water, then isopropal alcohol to wash, and finally a small (1/4") soft rubber tube to gently blow out water/alcohol from the printhead body. Be careful to not touch
issues and certainly one of the most the bedeviling error codes a Canon user will come across. First, let's look at the root of the error message so we may bring to light the variety http://www.mytechtime.com/2011/09/canon-error-b200-how-to-fix-it.html of possible solutions. If you have read other portions of this website, you may http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/posts/71079 already know of the fork in the road in inkjet-based printing. One path is the HP-based Pizeo-electric crystal approach. A Pizeo-crystal vibrates when electricity is applied to it. This creates a push and pull of the ink to the media. Contrast this to the Canon bubble jet system. Imagine if you will on an ultra-fine scale, error code the rubber nipple on a baby bottle. If you have ever overheated a baby's bottle, you have already experienced the baby's forthcoming meal shooting out the top of the nipple like some miniature Mount Vesuvius. While the thermodynamic law in a baby bottles application is messy and annoying, Canon engineers use the principle for printing.In comparison to HP ink, the ink supply for a Canon printer is much thicker and more error code b200 like oil, almost tar like. Behind the nipple is an electrical resistor that produces heat. Therefore, the same thermodynamic laws apply, and a droplet of ink 'bubbles out' of the nozzle.The resistor needs electricity from a high-voltage section and feedback from the printhead about what is going on in the active bubble land. When something has gone awry in this sub process, the canon b200 error error occurs. Canon b200 Error, Troubleshooting Replace ink cartridges if they are empty At the risk of stating the obvious (frequently not so obvious in the heat of the moment), find out if the ink cartridges are empty. When in doubt, try a new cartridge to fix canon error b200.A data cable of print head is open Did you just replace an ink cartridge? Perhaps you shifted a data cable to the print head.Bad power adapter Is the power supply (internal or external) failing to generate enough electrical juice to get the resistors hot enough for the laws of thermodynamics to occur (creating a bubble of ink).Replace printhead if it is damaged or not a part of the ink cartridge It should be noted that for the Canon printers that use a separate (not integrated) printhead, there is a finite lifespan to the dozens o
an error code appeared: B200. After doing a little research, I understand that this is a High Voltage temperature concern with the only option given is to replace the Printhead. I tried unplugging it from the power source overnight and then plugged it back in this morning but with no change. With the price of a new printhead being $86. and the price of a brand new MX882 costing only $129, I was wondering if I shouldn't simply purchase a new printer. Is this a common problem with these printers? Is there a better printer to get for home/studio use that will last longer? Respond to this 0 I am having the same issue so I will be following this discussion to see if anyone responds by txchilichef on Jul 2, 2011 at 11:55am Add comment Please sign in to comment solution worked partly thank you - gillysden Turn OFF Power2. Open the print head bay (as though you were about to change inks)3. Turn ON power4. Wait for print carriage to start moving to the left and let it go past half way5. Before print carriage reaches left hand side (but after going halfway across) shut the cover.6. Leave the Printer turned on7. Took me a half dozen times of near starts but it kicked in and the old work horse works perfect again.Canon tech support blamed it on generic ink "of course" ... they basically said that short of spending $200 on a new ink head I'd be better off buying a new printer. - rschechner 0 Have the same problem with a Pixma MX860, approx 1.5 yrs old. by hnb on Oct 15, 2011 at 2:00pm Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 Same sudden problem. All research points to high voltage temperature error requiring Printhead replacement. Thanks to Artist59 for putting a $ to that. I'll be buying a different printer rather than throwing good money after bad. by nfiacchi on Mar 25, 2012 at 8:18pm Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 Hi,Generaly, this error means the printhead is broken.But one of these solution may solve the problem:http://fix-your-printer.blogspot.frGood luck ! by Jann31 on Mar 28, 2012 at 6:21am Add comment Please sign in t
