    You have as decision to make. How much money are you going to put into this machine? Where to stop?


    From what you've described, you'll need another new multisensor and whatever additional parts that you'd like to try next. =^..^=

        So seems like no one has a clue

        How can I at least check which parts are working correctly? That would allow me to dismount all the printer and sell its working pieces.

        Thanks

          ok, so I assume the conclusion is that Canon's printers have a life-cycle spanning only as long as their warranty then it's jjust good maintenance and luck

            Machines like this can turn into a money pit in a hurry. Several different components can give the same errors. This is one of the more frustrating aspects of iPF's.

            Since you have spare parts and time, there is no reason that you cannot start swapping in first the carriage and trailing cable. With practice it can be done in an hour, but count on two hours the first time. Clearly you'll need another multisensor.

            I tell this to all my iPF customers: Ink based devices must be run. If you leave it unused the printheads will dry up, guaranteed.
            If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
            1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
            2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
            3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
            4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
            5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.
