  • Paper is loaded in tray, but printer won't feed the paper? In this video I'll show how to fix the problem. It may not be as easy as other printer models, but it can be done with little effort. Demonstarted on MG3220 printer, but MG3520 and MG3620 are very similar and same concept will work for those models as well.

    Thank you for this! I followed your directions exactly, using the "paper+alcohol wipes stapled on" approach, and it worked great! Paper is feeding and printer works perfectly, after not being used for literally YEARS. Awesome! :) Thanks again.

    Omg this worked thank you!! I called Canon and they were like well it looks like you'll need to buy a new printer. Never mentioned this once! Instead of the wipes I used a little isopropyl alcohol on a microfiber towel inserted with a ruler to clean the roller inside the paper slot and inside the machine. Worked like a charm! Ty so much for saving me some money I was about to go buy a new printer!!

    I tried your method and had great success. One thing I did different was after I ran process couple times... I added a couple sheets of paper under paper with pads to raise pads tighter to rollers. When I did that it picked up more black. I believed that helped. Thanks again.

    Thanks. This 50% worked, but it kept stopping after a few sheets. I solved it by tilting the printer back at 45 degrees, so the paper falls into the feeder.

    Facing the same problem myself (with a Canon Pixma MG5750), I had to find a "softer" solution. Here it is: simply unplug your printer, turn it on its back, so the underbelly is facing upwards. Slide the floor of the upside-down paper cartridge out to its full extent (as you would if you were inserting a stack of sheets of paper). This will reveal the first dual-roller unit that is failing to pull in paper. In this position, they can be rolled freely. Now, take a 15cm strip of sticky tape (known to some as Sellotape or Tesa-Film) and loop it around one of the rubber ribbed rollers with the sticky surface in contact with roller, holding the ends of the tape between the thumb and forefinger of each hand. Ensuring that the tape is seated flat against the rubber roller, proceed to gently and evenly draw the tape back and forth from one end to the other, rolling the roller as you go. You will notice the sticky tape plucking the dust and dirt from the roller. Repeat as often as necessary, but three times should be enough. Repeat on the other side. For good measure, lightly dip a fine, not too soft artist's paintbrush (5-8 mm wide) in some isopropyl alchohol cleaner and brush from side to side over the surface of the rubber rollers and through the ridges on them. Let the cleaner evaporate and you're done! Carefully flip the printer over, making sure various flaps and covers don't drop open. Reconnect the mains lead. Switch on. Place paper in the cartridge. Print as normal.

    @mauricemagiq 7 месяцев назад +1

    Thank you. I didn't staple, but when I slightly swabbed a single sheet of the paper with the alcohol strips, it worked fine since alcohol evaporates so fast. After two passes, everything was fine

    Thank you so much for this! It did work. However, I had a problem as my printer sucked in the entire paper with the wipes stapled on and I instinctively pulled it and tore the paper! So it jammed completely and I had to open the printer in the back and use tweezers to pull out the peaces of paper with the staples and wipes... It was a mess. Luckily, everything ended well! And I no longer have the initial nor any problems! Yay! 😀

    My 3rd MG3620 in 6 years. In fairness, I bought on in Budapest for a 3 month stay and left it for the landlord. The machine just quit picking up the paper. As I had paid $49 for it 3 years ago, it seemed to have met my requirements for cost of use and reliability. I had bought a "back up " two yeas ago for fear of rising prices and a need to not be without a backup (OCD can do strange things). I took me 3 days to get the newer printer tork in wireless mode but . now, it does. I'm afraid to toss the older machine thinking that I might be able to fix the paper feed problem (why I wanted to replace it) Thanks

    • @303electronics
      @303electronics  6 месяцев назад

      The printer may need the settings changed to plain paper. If prints are taking way too long, the settings are not correct on the computer or phone. Most likely, you have it set to special paper such as photo brochure paper. It needs to be set to plain paper. And check quality settings. It should be "normal" or "regular" quality. It may be set to "photo" or "best photo" quality. Those settings also drain your ink dramatically more than regular prints. Like 10 times more ink. Let me know if that was the problem or not. Thanks.

Presto! Cleano! That printer slurped up that paper like snot! 🤣
