My Cannon Pixma 560 displays ERROR B200, I have followed the instructions..Unplug for 10 minutes, plug in and restart. The same error message came comes back on after several tries.
 
did you follow the steps between unplugging and plugging in again too?

"Turn off the printer.
Disconnect the power cable.
Open the printer cover.
Check for any orange protective tape or white polystyrene and remove if necessary.
Check that there are no foreign objects in the printer (such as a paper clip) and remove if necessary.
Close the cover.
Reconnect and turn on."

Did you use non original cartridges?

contact canon support
Most likely that´s another case of planned obsolescence -> right after warranty expires, the device gets faulty.

if you look inside your machine you will see a blk plastic strip that's clear at the ends and runs at the back behind your head unit, you will see that ink has splashed on this clean that off you are good to go. your machine counts the spaces in between if it does not count enough it thinks there is a jam.
