This is most likely to be of no use today. Oct 13th, 2017 but here goes

I have been progressively been pledged with the dreaded printer stall.  I have changed all the print heads cleaned and inspected everything imaginable under the hood.

 

The printer ink carriage would sometimes stall on the left or on the right causing a clanking, grind noise.  In disgust,  I unplugged the machine and cleaned the driver, the software of my PC.

 

Today, I looked and the machine who was cold and lonely ( we have been together for 8 years) and thought to myself, It occurred to me as I sat looking at that the sound that it makes when resetting itself sounds very much the  when I have used the large paper gate for 13x19 and closed it. 

 

I plugged it in lifted the large paper gate, let it set the paper function then closed the gate.  **bleep**!  the printer works perfectly while only making its rest process.  It printed a 11x14  perfectly plus much more. 

 

Now I have two printers;  Pro B9180 and a Canon Pixma Pro 10.  Sad but true the inks are NOT compatible.

 

If it helps let me know.
