Error code 6A80 on Canon printers



Solution 1:
  • Switch the printer OFF
  • Press buttons 1 + 2 + 3 and 4 (simultaneously using four fingers)
  • Keep pressing this four buttons for 10 seconds
  • Release the On/Off button (number 4) (Keeping pressing the others)
  • After a few seconds (when the printer go ON), release buttons 1, 2, 3
  • Solution 2 (Thanks to Dick):
    • I discovered that the head was blocked from moving all the way to the right by a white nylon lever and discovered that there was a thin, small pad that had come loose and was blocking the mechanism to activate the head motion. 
    • One pad was about 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch and a second was a narrow 3/32 x 1/2 inch pad both about 1/16 thick. 
    • I removed these pads and the printer returned to normal
