LIST OF ERROR DISPLAY / INDICATION Errors are indicated by the LED, and warnings are displayed on the monitor of the computer connected to the printer. 2.1 Operator Call Errors (LED Blinks in Orange) Note: The color red indicates changes from the i70 / PIXUS 50i base model. LED blinking in orange 2 times 3 times 4 times 5 times 8 times 9 times 12 times Error No paper. Paper jam. Either black or color ink tank (or both ink tanks) is not installed, or not installed properly. The print head is not installed properly or the print head has problems. Warning: The waste ink absorber is almost full (approx. 95% of the maximum capacity). Communication with the digital camera has been failed./ The connected digital camera or digital video camera is not supported by the PIXMA iP90 / PIXUS iP90. Low battery. Solution Set paper, and press the Resume/Cancel button. Remove the jammed paper, and press the Resume/Cancel button. Install both black and color ink tanks. When the ink tanks have been already installed, re-install them. - Install the print head (when the print head has been already installed, re-install it), and close the print head cover. - With the print head installed, turn the printer off and on. Pressing the Resume/Cancel button cancels the error and resumes printing. In repair servicing, replace the following items and reset the appropriate waste ink counter.* - Main waste ink absorber: Drain pack ass'y (QL2-0194) - Platen waste ink absorber: Ink absorber (QC1-5831/1211/1212, Three items are to be replaced at the same time.) Disconnect the cable from, both the digital camera and the printer, and press the Resume/Cancel button. Reconnect them and try again. Put the battery on charge or print with the AC adapter. Remarks If the error persists, the ink tank sensor may have problems. The service call error, indicating the waste ink absorber is full, is likely to occur soon. * For the PIXMA iP90 / PIXUS iP90, it is possible to reset `main waste ink counter' and `platen waste ink counter' respectively. For the i70 / PIXUS 50i and i80 / PIXUS 80i, they are reset at the same time. 4 https://manual-hub.com/ 3. REPAIR 3-1. Notes on Service Part Replacement (Disassembling/Reassembling) It is possible to replace the main ink absorber and platen ink absorber respectively. Other service part replacement is the same as the i70 / PIXUS 50i.

Special Notes on Repair Servicing (1) Elimination of connectors (cable soldering to board) In order to reduce costs, some connectors on the boards listed below are eliminated, and the applicable cables are soldered to the boards. Accordingly, a set of board and cable is to be replaced in repair servicing of them. (a) Main board ----- Cable to the coin battery The service part settings are as follows: i70 / PIXUS 50i, i80 / PIXUS 80i PIXMA iP90 / PIXUS iP90 Main board Main board (including the coin battery holder) Soldered Coin battery unit (including the coin battery) Coin battery (commercially available, not designated as a service part) Maxell CR2032 Notes on main board replacement: Remove the coin battery from the original main board, and install it in the battery holder of the replaced main board. 5 https://manual-hub.com/ (b) USB board ----- Cables to the main and DC-DC boards Soldered (c) DC-D board ----- Cables to the main board Soldered (d) Door sensor board ----- Flexible cable to the main board Soldered (2) Tapping Screw The tapping screw is used in the main case unit at the location indicated below. As no metal sheet is inserted between the screw and the main case unit, be careful not to fasten the screw too tight. 6 https://manual-hub.com/ 3-3. Adjustment / Settings (1) Service mode The basic operations are the same as those of the i70 / PIXUS 50i. In this section, destination settings, how to reset the waste ink counter, and EEPROM information printing, which differ from those of the i70 / PIXUS 50i, are detailed. <Service mode operation procedures> 1) Turn off a printer. While pressing the Resume/Cancel button, press the Power button. The LED lights green to indicate that functions are selectable. 2) While holding the Power button, release the Resume/Cancel button. (Do not release the Power button.) 3) While holding the Power button, press the Resume/Cancel button 3 times, and then release the Power and Resume/Cancel buttons. (Each time the Resume/Cancel button is pressed, the LED alternately lights in either orange or green, starting with orange.) 4) When the LED lights green, press the Resume/Cancel button as many times as you need, to select the preferred function.

NEW TECHNOLOGY (1) Highly weather-resistant ink is available (color ink only). BCI-16 Color (highly weather-resistant ink) takes the place of BCI-15 Color. Black ink tank Color ink tank <The combination of the models and ink tanks> i70 / PIXUS 50i i80 / PIXUS 80i PIXMA iP90 / PIXUS iP90 BCI-15 Bk BCI-15 CI BCI-16 Cl Note: BCI-16 Color is NOT compatible with BCI-15 Color. Although BCI-16 Color and BCI-15 Color are mechanically and electrically same, the color conversion process of the printer driver is different. Use of BCI-15 Color on the PIXMA iP90 / PIXUS iP90 (or BCI-16 Color on the i80 / PIXUS 80i) is not allowed to avoid undesirable effects on printouts. However, use of BCI-15 Color on the PIXMA iP90 / PIXUS iP90 (or BCI-16 Color on the i80 / PIXUS 80i) does not cause any mechanical damages to the printer. (2) An ink saving function has been added. In the Maintenance tab of the printer driver, by selecting the following two modes, an ink saving function can be set. This function becomes effective only when the media type is plain paper. In the default setting, the two modes are not set. The setting of two modes does not change until a user command the printer to do so. Save Black Ink mode: Black-print duty is reduced to save black ink consumption. In this mode, black printing is faint in some degree. Use Composite Black mode: The black color can be available by using color ink even when black ink is used up. In this mode, black becomes slightly greenish. With this mode enabled, the message which makes users recognize that print quality may deteriorate, due to the setting of Use Composite Black mode, is displayed on the screen every time a print job is operated. (3) The following functions have been added to the Print Beam function. a. AU pictographic symbols (Japan only) b. QR codes (Japan only) c. Reprinting function: By pressing the Resume/Cancel button, printing is preformed again. (Image data only) (4) Printing on plain paper is supported in PictBridge print mode. When printing on plain paper, borderless printing is not possible. (Even though borderless print is selected, a margin appears.) (5) In Setup Utility, PictBridge print mode setting is available. (6) The ink absorber has a 20% longer life. Approx. 20% longer life than that of the i80 / PIXUS 80i with the modification to the purging operation sequence, although the ink absorber is the same as one in the i70 / PIXUS 50i and i80 / PIXUS 80i. 9 https://manual-hub.com/ (7) The wait time of the print head before capping is reduced. The period of time before the print head starts to move to the capping position from the home position becomes 11 seconds. In conventional models, it was 55 seconds. Reason: To prevent removal of the power cord while the print head is at home position (meaning, the print head is not capped). The users may feel uncomfortable with an unforeseen frequent movements of the print head (the print head scan sequence*1 before capping). Thus, possible claims are expected. *1: An action which the print head makes two round trips, from the right to the left, to eject ink mist: This function was newly introduced with the i80 / PIXUS 80i. Available when; Cleaning, Replacement of the print head and ink tanks, and Turning off the power. 10 https://manual-hub.com/ 2. CLEANING MODE AND AMOUNT OF INK PURGED Print head cleaning is performed before a start of printing, except in the following cases: - Cleaning on arrival: Performed when the print head cover is closed. - Cleaning by dot count: Performed after ejecting paper. - Manual cleaning / deep cleaning: Performed manually. <Cleaning mode list> (The color red indicates the changes from the i80 / PIXUS 80i.)

However, this cleaning is conducted only 5 times after printer installation, and no further timer cleaning - 0 (Black) will be performed. 11 https://manual-hub.com/ 3.
