A poster said an XP driver will work...or might work. Did you ever think about a corrupted driver. Expose the printer hidden Registry entries, (Device Manager) Do not go there if you have little experience - just sayin'. |

Thanks Folks! Do any of these printers work with Windows 2000?
Really appreciate all the suggestions, fellers. I struck out trying to find a way to clear the waste ink problem with MP190. I was hoping for a simple work-around, like cutting the sensor wires, but evidently it's not that simple. Meanwhile, I found a good used Win2000-compatible printer that will get me by for now.
I was not able to find a service manual or even procedures on R/R for this printer online. Local shops want $50 to diagnosis and quote repair. If anyone runs across a MP190 service manual or has tips on R/R of the waste ink assembly for this model pls let me know. From what I've seen online, it's at least at 2 hour job just getting access to the assembly, which means 2 days for me to put it back together again. LOL! Hopefully next year, the old wallet will not be empty and I can pick up new PC with latest OS and a shiny new printer. Sorry to those annoyed by so many questions. === "Oren" wrote in message ...

Bob I don't know, but : - Find a postscript printer laser (monochrome lowcost) or - Put your windows 2000 in Virtual Machine under linux with a gate postscript wwith new printer (or new PC under seven/8 with VM w2k) If you've got a old software works only under windows 2000, virtual machine is the bers choice. Windows 2000 VM can run under all host (XP/vista/7/8/windows version 2024/macOSX/linux/....) The host can be gateway between Win2000 and all news printers -- Vous voulez un conseil ?

Sorry to those annoyed by so many questions. === The user manual appears to be available at: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/suppor...uresAndManuals ( or http://tinyurl.com/27d8x4w ) Are you getting Error Code E,8 ?? If so, here is what manual says: "E, 8 Ink absorber is almost full. The machine has a built-in ink absorber to hold the ink used during Print Head Cleaning, for example. This error code indicates that the ink absorber is nearly full. Press the Black or Color button to cancel the error so you can continue printing. However, because printing is disabled once the ink absorber becomes completely full and until the ink absorber is replaced, you are recommended to contact your Canon service representative as early as possible. (You will need to replace a particular part of the machine.)" Also found this: http://www.justanswer.com/printers/6...xma-mp190.html ( or http://tinyurl.com/mak9wh6 ) Talks about removing and cleaning the pads. Also says new pads are no longer available from Canon. Good luck and have fun ;-) |

Without knowing for sure, I'm guessing that the even though the reset procedure works, the absorber being full, trips the error again. I picked up another Canon to use now so the "emergency" is over. Will tackle the absorber over the weekend if I can hide from the lovely wife long enough. |

A lot of these things are meant to be thrown away, not repaired. Which is sad - my printers (an office laser that was once fairly high end when I had to do a lot of printing of manuals, large assembler program listings etc when I telecommuted, and a quality photo printer) are fairly old but still good quality even by modern standards. But when the photo grey cartridge needed replacing I had to drive all over town looking for a replacement. Most of the shops told me it would be cheaper to buy a new low end printer - it probably would have been, but I wanted the quality of the old one, and I wanted it network attached so it could be used from the desktop or a laptop without the other computer being on. And the same goes for laptops. Mine break either at one of the hinges or the power socket. Everything is made down to a price, and I'd rather have something without all the bells and whistles that is robustly constructed and works properly. When you are retired on limited funds you can't afford to keep replacing stuff which once lasted many years. My current laptop is an Asus notebook, and the only machine on which I have had a disk crash in almost thirty years. I replaced the disk drive (easy) but couldn't recover the system. I had backed up all my data as a matter of course, but the recovery disk wouldn't boot without the recovery software on the system partition that was no longer there, and that's when I learned about UEFI booting when it expected to find UEFI stuff that had also been lost. Eventually and much against the grain I had to buy an OEM Win7 from newegg, which I shouldn't have had to do (Win8 was easy to find but I don't want that). This installed cleanly and boots the traditional way so If I have another disk crash I can boot from the image disks or if the worst comes to the worst from the OEM install disk. But there is so much wrong with the machine anyway. The grotty touchpad won't let me disable all the bells and whistles I don't need, and gives me accidental curser movement and clicks even when I've turned them off, together with unexpected zooms and scrolling. With earlier machines using the Synaptics touchpad and software, you could tune these out and even reduce the sensitivity so the heel of your hand didn't affect it. But not the Elantech that Asus used. /Rant/ off. |

Do any of these printers work with Windows 2000?
Thanks to all. First time I had used craistlist and am very impressed. Mostly nice folks. Some are overly honest, some lie like a dog. I recommend that you ask very direct questions before driving over to see something, and don't be afraid to offer 10 cents on the dollar. A lot of these folks got printers for Christmas and wasn't what they needed.
Also, learn some standard terms... Still in the box ... that I dug out of the dumpster Works great.... even with broken or missing parts Gently used ... for target practice Looks like new ... in the dark Ended up with a MP490 for $50, box never opened.

Bob Hi, Nothing to lose trying XP driver on them. MG series are fairly new one made after the days of W2000. I never liked HP printers 'coz their ink which is retty expensive. |

Bob Hi, Nothing to lose trying XP driver on them. MG series are fairly new one made after the days of W2000. I never liked HP printers 'coz their ink which is retty expensive. Yes, I tried XP drivers, plus downloaded various universal drivers and some of similar model numbers from Canon's European site but no luck -- but this is a good source for other stuff not on the US site. Looks like MP490 ink carts have the same breathing hole suitable for drilling and refilling. Anyone who is not refilling cartridges should give it a try. Once the hole is drilled it's nearly as quick to refill as it is to swap out with a new one. With the hard plastic ink cart cases, it's much easier to use an electric drill than with the little hand-held drill that comes with the refill kits. Just be careful to only drill very slowly - and just thru the case - and keep the plastic bits on the outside. |

I just installed an HP printer that was given to my wife a couple of years ago before Win 8. The CD would not install it but new driver was available on-line. |
