 | canon MX700 6A80 error, head locked by doucare (edited 9/14/09 2:59 PM) reply | + / - | power up gives 6A80 error code.
LED 12 cycles.
it was stuck with error code 5000 during deep cleaning, and then after power off/on, it gives 6A80 code.
the head won't move at all. even after power off, i can't slide it at all.
it looks like there is a locking mechanism that got stuck on the head block.
is there a way to unlock the locking mechanism using factory or service mode?
i read some threads about purge pads being stuck. but i can't really see it with the printer head parked all the way to the right.
do i have to open the printer to solve the issue? it looks like a heck of a work to disassemble it.
if disassemble is the only way, disassemble guide will be of great help.
any help will be appreciated.

I finally manage to disasemble that thing, too many clips, not enough screws. It is time to make understand to manufacturer that the time of throwing everything is terminated. Now they need to manufacture product that are repairable for a fair price.
Took me one hour to take it apart, broke 2 clips (only inside the cosmetic stuff) and just rebuild the printer but left the cosmetics out(left side and right site)takes too much time for next problem.
Now it is working fine, it looks for me that something wrong came up at the time the head came back in place, once everything was apart I was able to pull the head away, cleaned up everythinks (ink pads etc...) and rebuild it. Then prayed that it started and work, as it is not possible to test the printer without rebuilding it, top and side cable are too short from scanner and panel commands to test not in place.
