I have had this Pixma G4200 bulk tank all-in -one for less than 18 months and it will not print, scan, copy or anything! Error Code displayed is 5B00. Canon Tech indicated it was an issue with the print carridge sensor and that my only option was to upgrade to a new printer. Online searches for this error code seemed to all indicate it was an absorber pad full issue. What good is saving $$ with bulk tank ink when the printer itself self destructs before using all the ink supplied?
Anyone had any luck at all with this? bought one may last year and it wont do anything now because of the 5b00 error. Tried all the recommended fixes with booting into service mode, hitting stop 5 & 6 times, tried the reset tool. No love.
I ended up with the same feedback from Canon: there is no work around. They offered a discounted price a G4210 which was about $15 lower than I could have gotten at Best Buy. No thanks. I paid more for the G4200 with the assumption I was getting better quality and would save on ink over the long haul. It lasted 26 months.
