I get a "CHECK PRINTER 5b00" message in the LCD display of my mx300. Can anyone help.
Thanks
This will NOT work for an error 5100 or 5b00 which is a waste tank full error.
It's "much simpler" to do this:
While printer is on with the error code, hold down
MENU + STOP/RESET buttons
"(together at same time)"
Hold down for 5-10 seconds & Voila it's repaired !
I just did it and it works great :)
