Hi You can Try
Seen lots of ths errors
Error Code 5100
Solution 1:
Clean the timing strip.

Solution 2:
The purge cap (the white sliding mechanism that the print head parks to when it's not in use) may be not lubricated well enough .

Lubricate the sliders with some white grease (don't get it on the small wipers or the black caps); this repair probably require to remove the right panel off of the printer to gain access to the purge mechanism.

All The Best: Pineworks

Ink not made for your printer has risks. 20 years as Canon rep taught me this. Yields: are affected by resolution, type of paper, condition of print head, condition of ink jets, all ink jets and lasers are mfg'd under lisence to Canon. You have the best! Anytime supplies are cheaper, something is left out. used cartridges usualy leak air and drip ink ck for stains under print head. cartridge has used blotter also drips. Cheaper cartridges contain less ink, no free lunch. Fill it yourself 1 or 2 times and do it right. Put the printer in your shower for twenty minutes if you see excess leaked ink. Allow to air dry for a few days then install new cartridges. Run all the Nozzle checks and print head utilities. Touch nothing else on the inside. This will fix it or f@#%k it up for good

hey no prob i just happen to be around cause i ve been pretty sick the last few days. canon dealer must charge you but i guess not much. we charge here around 30 bucks so dependeing on your budget that might be alot ornot. and nop the tool is not for every canon pixma but it does work with many models. i will tomorrow tell you if there's any alternative way to proceed with the resetting. peace.

You may download the driver from the below Canon link but you will ned to know:

Type of printer? Multifunction? Ink , Photo printer?Color? Series Number or letter or word.

Hi Lui,

this is a common problem when using refilled cartridges.

You can either go into Control Panel --> Printers and Faxes
Right click on the printer and select properties, then look for a maintenance or color section

There should be a setting to ignore the cartridge levels
If this fails look at the solutions here:

HI

I have Canon PIXMA MP210 printer but problem is that whenever i given comand for print or scan than computer show "Code: 2,114,0" this message therefor printer not print or scan. so please give me solution

Thanking you,

here u can find the driver...

try checking if you have completely installed all the drivers for your printer. scanning and copying dont usually needs drivers because you can do that even without a computer. but scanning requires your scanner to be read by your pc. try checking for the scanner driver from the cd that came from your printer.

Try this fix.....CLICK HERE

It works the same for the Canon MP 150 or MP 160
