Paper Won't Feed In Canon Pixma MG3220 Printer E2 Fix Error 2 MG3620 MG3520

- 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!!
The printer is so poorly made. Got so angry took it upstairs and threw it out the window
Well that must've been fun. LOL. I'm sorry. It is a very inexpensive printer, so I can't expect much from it.
I want to say thanks. I'm an Ebay seller panicking because I couldn't print postage labels off. Watched this, and it's all sorted works like new thanks again for a fantastic video, I used a thick napkin and window cleaner ( I don't have any beads ), worked fantastic thanks
That's great. I'm an ebay seller as well, and I know the printer can mess up your day quick. Glad you got it fixed. Thank you for sharing.
You sir, are a lifesaver. Thank you soo muchh for this. You explained it so well with every detail. You're amazing.
Thank you! This helped me. Paper was stuck inside the printer and I didn't know how to open it. Accessing the feeding mechanism on the back was a super easy solution!
I'm glad you got it fixed. Thank you very much for sharing. Have a great day!
Probably should've watched this video BEFORE I bashed and insulted my printer 🤣. Thanks, it really helped! 👍🏼👍🏼
I'm glad it worked for you. Thank you for taking the time to give feedback. Have a great day.
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.
Thank you very much for sharing. I'm glad you were able to fix the problem. Have a great day!
Thank you so much! This truly worked and fixed my issue. I tried calling canon and couldn’t speak with anyone. So thank you for creating this content for trouble shooting paper issues!!! 😊
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.
A million thanks. This did the trick. I put a book under the front of the machine.
Awesome work my man, worked like a charm. I used a microfiber towel and a ruler then poured some rubbing alcohol onto the tip of the ruler and worked it under the roller and bottom surface. Ditto for the roller in the back but using my finger instead. Thank you!
Thank you so much for the feedback. I'm glad you got it fixed! Have a great day!
Thank you! We taped a paper towel soaked with a bit of disinfectant spray to the tip of a piece of A4 watercolour paper and it worked! Canon MX390 series printer
Bless you. Tears of joy. I did it with no results at first,
then I thickened the paper load and it worked!
I used a piece of moleskin that has adhesive backing and worked like a little sponge.
That's awesome! I know it's a great feeling. Thank you very much for sharing! 😃
I had completely lost hope and in the process of going way over budget on a new computer and monitors i was like whats anothe 80 bucks on a printer. Well sir thanks for saving me this 80 dollars. Works perfectly and maybe now i will use the printer more often.
Wow, you just saved me a bunch of money.
I was all ready to buy a new printer.
Thanks heaps.
You are welcome! I'm glad you got it fixed. Have a great weekend!
This ACTUALLY worked!!!! Thank you so much! I was skeptical but it did indeed work!
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.
I appreciate you taking time to share your experience and knowledge. Have a great day!
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
Awesome! Thank you for sharing! Have a great weekend!
My Canon TR4500 hasn't been used in years. Thank you for this! I was about to buy a new printer 😭
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! 😀
That's great! Thank you so much for sharing! Have a great day!
ty, i didnt realise there was a second roller compartment at the back with some paper stuck in it!
Yep. 🙂I'm glad you got it fixed. Have a great weekend!
Omg!!! Thank you!!! It worked!! I wanted to throw it out the window and i just got new ink
Thank you!! I did it with paper towel and windex and it worked straight away
I'm glad it did. Thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend!
Worked really well. Easy to follow instructions. Thank you. I used antibacterial wipe and vodka and worked well!
That's awesome! Vodka works miracles, huh! Haha. 😄 Thanks for the feedback. Have a great weekend!
Thank you so much, you saved a printer from the landfill.👍
You are welcome! Glad it worked.
Oh my god ..this saved me ..dust on the rollers is the culprit.. after cleaning the rollers paper pulled in like anything.
I'm glad you got it fixed. Have a great day!
Worked for 2 other non-canon printers that weren’t working. Thanks!
Oh my gosh, such an easy fix that worked! I was afraid I’d have to take it apart 🥲
I'm glad you got it fixed. Have a great day!
Very clever fix, I have this exact printer and will give it a go. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks. Have a great weekend!
Thank you! I sell stickers and kept having issues! Game changer!
Glad it helped!
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
Thank you. I did what you said and my printer works fine now.
That's great! Thanks for sharing. Have a great day!
Thanks! It worked just as you suggested....Fantastic!!!
I'm glad it did! Thank you for the feedback. Have a great day!

Thank you❣️
You're welcome! Have a great day!
The first roller that feeds in works fine but it’s coming out really slow, still can’t fix it
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.
Thank you 🎉
This worked for me. Cleaning that is! I have a Pixma MG4120 and all i did was take a hand sanitize wipe that i have plenty of (thanks covid)...took a butter knife...wrapped the wipe around the knife and proceeded to stick it into the roller and swirl that wipe around. Presto! Cleano! That printer slurped up that paper like snot! 🤣
Thank you goodsir
Very useful. Thank you 😊
Thanks for the feedback! Have a great weekend!
Worked like a charm!! Thank you.
Any idea on how to fix the same issue, but caused by the rolls' spring being weak? More precisely, on how to reach those rolls' platform in the first place to stick a sponge there in order to force it down
Yeah, I wanted to try the sponge solution too, but with the mg3150 you can't open the bottom.
Try putting 2 books under the front of your printer so that it tilts backwards at 30 degrees. It worked for me.
@@jsmith498 I will try that in the future if needed. So far another "solution" did the trick for me: I am using a thicker stack of paper in the feeder.
Thanks for the great, easy to understand vid, but unfort this didn't work for me, not sure why (will take to i.t guy in shop, more $ to spend (& damn it, of course I'd just put new ink cartridge in, those things arent cheap either)
I know, I'm sorry it didn't work for you. Thanks for the feedback. Have a great day!
@@303electronics not to worry, was worth a try! I ended up taking it torepair shop but it was unfixable went to e waste (roller damaged unfort)
Very good process, so helpfull
thanks
Thank you so much this really does work 😀
Thank you thank you!!
You're welcome! Enjoy your day!
