Question

Canon MG3053 flashing power light and not appearing online

Apr 1, 2018 2:17AM PDT

I can't seem to find a printer forum so I'm just putting my question in here.

Using Windows 10. Power light won't stop flashing. Other lights are on but computer says printer is offline. I've tried installing it on another computer but still showing as offline. Any advice please?

Unplug the power cord. wait about an hour. Then press the power button and hold down for a minimum of one minute. Plug the power cord back in and test.
