 Hey guys, Kevin here. Today we're going to work on Canon printers. We got the three printers. They all have paper jam, and it seems pretty frequently I've seen those. It starts with Canon IMAX 490 to 490, and then it just jams life at right. What's going on with Canon? The model is not that important here. To start troubleshooting is good to limit other factors such as a computer connection, those things. The easiest way is just copy a white blank page using a photocopy, so you'll have no computer involved. Also because your copy blank is you're not going to use up on the inks. And then let's do a divide conquer. There are two steps for paper to print. The first step is pick up paper from underneath and then roll it to the upper deck. On the upper deck, you may have a piece of jam paper. You may have a malfunction piece sensor, the paper eject sensor. You may have a piece of debris or a piece of paper get stuck inside the roller. To eliminate this, you can scan from the upper deck from the back feeder. Let's go over the upper deck. If the other piece of paper work out okay, you don't have to troubleshoot those. This is my first time using this printer, so I scanned the color page to make sure I have the inks. But you should just use the blank page. It seems that this printer is totally okay on the upper deck. Okay, let's get the party started. Those rollers need to be free spin, and that looks good. Little bit of debris here, but I don't think it's a problem. Now I use my thumb to move this gear counterclockwise, and you should see this single roller spin, and then put your finger on it, give some resistance, and you can feel there's some resistance there. Do the same on the other side, and if you spin the wrong way, you won't feel resistant. But if you spin counterclockwise, you should feel the resistance. Because I didn't see anything apparent, sometimes it may be just the shaping that shifts the position of this tree. So I install it back, and let me show you another trick. I'm going to manually feed a paper on the top deck, and I let the bottom deck to spin it out, so I can see visually if every part is working. So I hit copy function. This is looking good. Now do check the pickup motor working perfectly. This time I do not put a paper on the upper deck. So you're going to see the stops, and then spill the rest of paper, and I mark where the stops, and that should measure about three inches. That should be past three inches, about three, three and a quarter, and three and a half inches. For those folks in England, you ask, how many centimeters? Sorry, we thought you asked, so we can just use your imperial system. That looks good. Okay, let's take a first spin. Notice we're printing from the lower deck now, and everything looks okay. And we also tested at the ADF feeder to scan it back. So this one, it seems old because this location of that rolling tray, so we just take it out and clean it, put it back, and everything works. Okay, it's the gun printer. This is usually caused by the printhead not able to move. So you might still have some jammed paper in there, or something is jamming the movement of the printhead. And also you might have a broken cable encoder. Oh, there it is. I see it. This waste assembly is totally knocked off the position, and you can see it's missing some top parts there. So I need some one-on-one time with this guy and fix it. So maybe not today. So you have a paper gem, and then you shut the printer down. The printhead will rest on this pad and with the paper. So if you fight too hard, you're going to, you're going to rip the top off this waste ink pad, and you're going to damage the printer. Okay, I put a paper clip on this, and we move on to the next printer. The top scan looks okay. So we're going to work on the bottom. This part is really cool. I want to see that. TS8-220 also can print on CD, and also it has one extra blue ink. If you see the video I put the link above, I demonstrated that this series actually is really weak on the blue. This is a small part from that video. The outside line is a true photo printer. The inside line is this Pixma series. All those wireframe regions are the colors. Pixma cannot print without a blue ink. Back to reality, we have a paper gem here. The outside cover looks okay. Pay attention to that pickup roller. You can see there are multiple pages get cramped without the roller. This is what it looks like underneath if I remove the paper tray. Make sure that roller can fall down with gravity and it's not stuck. Somehow this paper tray does feel weird. This is why. Let me take a working paper tray. So when you remove it, there should be a tab here that allows you to collapse or expand it. You cannot collapse or expand it without pressing this lever. Let me flip it over. The good one on the left, the bad one on the right. You can see the bad one is completely missing that piece. When you put the paper in, the paper should line up in the front before the tab on the top. But this one feel like this. So how I fix it? Dark tape. Now we still scan the blank page and see if the printer can pick up a single piece of paper without jamming. What's going on? Why it says there's no paper? There are plenty of paper there and the roller just doesn't pick it up. Oh, I can see the paper is too far back. You said there's a big gap between the paper and the roller. Somehow this switch got a switch to A4 and you can see the paper is too far back. I have to push it forward and make it lighter size so it can line up correctly. And this blue part is broken completely. It cannot hold its position. Dark tape time. Dark tape in the front and dark tape back. It seems to be working fine now.
