After printing many pages, Canon G2010 users frequently encounter the error P07, and the power and error lights are flashing (blinking), preventing them from printing any new documents. This error is typically characterized by its users as a hardware issue that necessitates the assistance of a service engineer, but it can be easily fixed at home if the proper steps are followed. As a result, in this guide, we will describe a quick and simple solution to Canon G2010 error P07.
What Is Causing Canon G2010 Error P07?
Most Canon G2010 printer users encounter error P07 after printing many pages. This error is caused by the ink flow on their printer. Canon’s G2010 printer has integrated ink tanks, which allows for an abundant flow of ink. As a result, after printing many pages, the ink in this printer begins to overflow, but the printer is unable to correct this problem on its own, so it displays the error P07 and stops printing.
How to Repair Canon G2010 Error P07 ?
Now that you know what caused error P07 on your Canon printer, let me walk you through the steps necessary to resolve this issue. Before you begin implementing the solution, you must carefully read all the steps. This is since you will have to repeat the same steps with minor variations. If you are not careful, you will make mistakes and eventually be unable to repair this error on your Canon printer.
- Turn off the printer: To turn off the printer, press the “Power” button on the printer control panel and then follow the instructions below. You can skip this step if your printer is already turned off.
- Hold the “Power” button for 5 seconds, then press and hold the “Stop” button five times while holding the “Power” button.
- The “green” power led will start blinking; wait for it to stop before proceeding.
- When the green power led stops blinking, it means your printer is in repair mode. All commands you issue to your printer by pressing the control panel buttons will now activate your Canon printer’s automatic repair mechanism. As a result, because you are working directly with the internal repair mechanism on your Canon printer, the steps outlined below must be followed carefully and precisely.
- Press the “Stop” button four times, then the “Power” button once.
- Now, press the “Stop” button three times, followed by the “Power” button once.
- Press the “Stop” button five times more, then the “Power” button once more.
- The “green” and “red” LED lights will begin to alternately blink. This is your printer cleaning itself before beginning the maintenance of the ink-flow mechanism. Wait for the process to complete before your printer stops making noises.
- That’s all there is to it; your printer has cleaned itself. Wait a few seconds after pressing the “Power” button to turn off the printer. This will take your printer out of repair mode.
- To turn on your printer, press the “Power” button on the printer control panel.
- On the printer display screen, you should now see a “Drop” sign. This drop-down sign indicates that your printer is experiencing an ink overflow problem. The number “0” indicates that there are no documents in the printer’s print queue.
- To send the print command to your printer, press the “Black” button near the Start button.
- The “green” led on the Power button will begin to blink. Again, your printer is cleaning itself in preparation for printing to begin. Wait for the process to finish.
- When the green led stops blinking, the display screen will show a “1,, indicating that your printer has one print in the queue. To print a page, press the “Color” button near the beginning.
If the page prints normally on your printer, the error P07 has been resolved. If the printer prints a “blank” page, don’t worry; simply follow the steps below. Press the “Power” button on the control panel to turn off the printer.
- Press the “Power” button to turn on the printer.
- After the printer has rebooted, press the “Test page” button, followed by the “Black” button to print.
- Your printer will now print the test page, indicating that it has resumed normal operation.
- That’s all there is to it; you’ve successfully resolved the Canon G2010 error P07, and your printer is now ready to print, scan, and copy documents as before.
