How to solve Error Code 6A00 on Canon Pixma printers

Error code 6A00 is a Canon generic code for paper path jam.

Solution 1:
  • Move the printhead carriage back and forth a few times.
Solution 2:
  • Check the purge unit: Moving the print head assembly will not clear a purge unit if its jammed with paper, paper clips, push pins, screws, cookie crisp, flower bud pods or the like.
