🆕 UPDATED: Please enable youtube subtitle/CC for instructions.
✅ CONFIRMED WORKS FOR: MP190, MP198, MP250, MP258, MP270, MP276.
Using a #Scanner on #Canon #Printer without #Ink or Cartridge.
www.instructabl...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Step 1: REMOVE ALL CARTRIDGE.
We need to remove all cartridge. Remove ink and cartridge.
How to remove ink and cartridge? Turn printer ON, lift upper body to access cartridge, remove cartridge by pulling it to the front (to you).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Step 2: ENTER 0 MODE.
Now we need to enter 0 mode. I call this 0 mode because its simply show "0" on the display.
How to enter 0 mode on Canon MP198 model?
-Turn printer OFF.
-Disconnect USB cable.
-Close front lid.
-Insert A PAPER into paper tray.
-Press and HOLD "stop/reset" button.
-Press and HOLD "ON" button.
-Release "stop/reset" button.
-Press and release "stop/reset" button 2x.
-Release "ON" button.
-Wait a moment, it will enter into 0 mode.
-AFTER show "0", turn OFF printer.
-PAPER will slightly coming/moving in.
Go to next step after PAPER slightly coming/moving in.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Step 3: ENTER E3 MODE.
Then we enter E3 mode.
E3 mode will blink "E" and "3" continuously.
-TURN ON printer.
-PAPER will continue moving in.
-After half of paper inside, it will stop.
-Then it will display E3.
Continue next step after E3 mode.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Step 4: ENTER 1 MODE.
We will then enter 1 mode, (because it will show "1" on its display). 1 mode means printer are ready to use (as scanner) even without ink or cartridge.
-Open front lid.
-PAPER will continue come in,
until eventually out from front lid.
-Close front lid again.
-Finish, wait and it will go to 1 mode.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Step 5: START SCANNING.
Its done!, Connect USB cable from printer to your PC, and finally you can start using your Canon MP 198 as a scanner (again).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I used to use an Epson ET-2550 kzfaq.infoUgkxciSwynMJ7PnUvvx11rewiu-yFBkZTl53 , an early model of the ink tank style. It worked well, but had one nuisance that drove me up the wall; if you didn't put it in high quality print mode you'd get a streak across the page. I'm happy to say I have yet to see this with this printer. The print quality has been fantastic so far, the set up was super easy. All in all I'm very happy with this printer.

MP250 :: It worked! But only after I figured out that after you remove the ink cartridges you need to snap the locking bars back down into position. Before I did that I just got the flashing warning triangle light. The other slight difference with me was that the machine didn't try to feed the paper at all -- I put the paper in but after cycling the power the machine ignored the paper and just came straight back into 1 mode and was able to scan. Anyway, big thanks to the OP - my MP250 has been propping the door open for several years but now it has a more useful function!

I will never buy again another Cannon product.

...... or so I thought. I tried to do a second page and it was back to the old start with, I believe, the number 8 (as I can only see half the digit). And going through the process again, I came up with different results, none of which would end in a scan. Actually, before coming to you, I tried another method from the internet; I was able to scan once and then no more. It's as if my machine rebels against any changing of the code.

A great thing to find out..while it does work , mine is mp 190.. but unfortunately, this hack gets reset if power goes off..so every time the printer is turned back on, it has to be repeated.., or the other solution is to always keep it powered on..which is not good anyway for occasional scans..only useful for those who do regular and lot of scans continuously.. But great hack nonetheless ...
