Default Windows Me & Canon BJC-2100 printing problem

I recently have a problem with my Canon BJC-2100 printer,
in that the printhead cartridge system became clogged. I
paid $55 for a new printhead cartridge, put it in my
printer, and began to get the error message "There was an
error writing to USBPRN01 for the printer(Canon BJC-2100);
Invalid access to memory location." I had no such problem
in the previous four years. I can't even print a test page.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer material
from Canon and/or from Microsoft at least 6 times, but have
had no improvement. I took my printer to a
Canon-recommended repair shop, which charged me $30 for
diagnostic tests to tell me the printer was OK, and that
the problem must be in my [Gateway] computer with my
software. Whenever I go through the "Windows Help and
Support" routine, I am told to contact the manufacturer.
"PC-Doctor for Windows" tells me everything is OK. Can
anyone help me get my printer going? Thanks...

Default Windows Me & Canon BJC-2100 printing problem

It has been a week since I sent in my request for help
with re-setting my Canon BJC 2100 printer, which keeps
sending me an error message, "Invalid access to memory
location." Can someone please help me?

Vince
Try this
Power the system down and unplug the printer from the USB port
Reboot to Safe Mode
Open Device Manager
Remove ALL printers
Remove ALL devices in the 'Other Devices' branch, if present
Remove ALL error-flagged devices
Remove ALL USB ports
Remove ALL USB controllers
Reboot to Normal Mode, and allow Windows to reinstall the USB ports.
Reboot
now plug in the printer, and wait for it to be recognised and installed
Reboot again
Now try printing the test page

See if that helps
