  • I'm raking apart Canon Pixma MX490 printer to show howbto remove most of the printer parts. I hope this video can be helpful for you to fix your printer or use parts off a spare you may have.
    If you need to get inside the printer to remive jams or fallen objects, it is very simple. Just 4 screws need to be remo ed to get inside the printer.

    I wish you had shown how to remove the carriage. One common problem with MX490 series (MX494) is error code 5011 which is due to carriage restricted movement. Hard reset is not a lasting solution as in many cases, after hard reset and followed by shutdown, on switching on the printer, again error 5011 shows up. One needs to attend to the carriage restricted movement issue to solve it and hence if you could have shown the carriage removal process, it could have helped many users. I wish you do a short video as a follow-up on this suggestion. Thanks.

    • @303electronics
      @303electronics  3 года назад +1

      Error 5011 usually just needs a cleaning or attaching the timing encoder strip in the back of carriage into the correct position.

    • @DebjeetDe
      @DebjeetDe 3 года назад

      @@303electronics Well when inspite of cleaning the encoder strip does not remove the perpetual 5011, one needs to remove the carriage and clean the sliding clips and associated parts. The steel tray edge can be cleaned without the carriage removal but unless the sliding clips are not cleaned properly, one is likely to encounter the 5011 perpetually. Hence, my wish.

    So my printer doesn't seem to be feeding correctly. the prints come out out of register? I see the tractor feed rollers and have cleaner them with alcohol but it didn't help. Any other ideas? Also what is the the long foam strip along the cartridge track for? Is it replaceable? I had to super glue mine back in place after a paper jam tore it out.

    @303 Electronics. Fast question. I brought this printer about 4 yrs ago. Used the ink all up till none left it came with. I left the ink carts in there till this day now. Thinking of buying new ink. Before I do was there maybe any damage done? Meaning them empty carts left in there dried up...

    • @303electronics
      @303electronics  2 года назад +1

      Hi. The cartridges on this printer model come with ink nozzles. So even if the ink dried up on the old cartridges, when you replace ink, it will work very good and no cleaning will be necessary. You should be all good!

    The printer will print fine and copy from the flat scanner but will not feed from the document feed on the top. It beeps when paper is put in place but the only message is ‘place document on platen’. Is it savable or junk….I just bought new ink a couple weeks ago so I will continue to use it for printing until the ink runs out.

    • @303electronics
      @303electronics  3 года назад

      There are rollers that pick up paper from the feeder. The rollers accumulate ink and paper dusk with time. Clean the rollers with alcohol swabs or paper towel and windex or similar cleaner. Sometimes warm water helps too. Don't spray liquid at the roller, just towel or napkin.

    Hello, could you tell me what parts of this printer need to be repaired for the error 6801? I've tried the reset and it's not working :( I can't understand what part is in need of repair as the error code is in Japanese? I have refilled the original ink cartridges with a syringe and ink i purchased to save on cost. Hoping I didn't break the printer by doing this. It did work after i did that, but all of a sudden it has stopped working?
    Thanks :)

    • @303electronics
      @303electronics  2 года назад

      Hi. There may be ink build up around the cartridge rest area. Also, see if there is some cleaning to be done in the back of the cartridge and inside the printer where the cartridge goes. Especially all contacts. If you remove the cartridges does the error go away? If so, on of the cartridges may be damaged or fried.

      I do not have one yet. I suggest taking pictures when you disconnect or remove something on the printer so you know what goes where. A lot of times these types of printers won't be too hard to put back. I will see what I have in shop and if I do have a similar, I will try to make a video.

      I do not have a video on how to put it together, but if you are fixing something, I recommend taking pictures of the process so you know what goes where. The point of this video is to show which screws and clips hold what to get access to certain parts.

Tried reset to factory defaults it won’t even do that. Guess it’s going in the trash and I purchase a new one. We are living in a throw away world.

      Hi. I'm sorry you are having trouble with the printer. Make sure all packaging is removed from cartridge. If you put your old cartridge in, does it do that? If not, it is most likely a faulty cartridge.

    This printer is a piece of shit!! I have hardly used it since I got it. I tried taking it apart to see if there was something visibly wrong with it. I tried 2 other print cartridges and nothing. It's not printing anything. I've looked at other forums tried different things. It's just a piece of walmart shit!! The only thing good about it is that the screws are all the same. That's about it. Well, I guess I am never buying canon again. Cool vid..thanks for the instructions.
