If your Canon printer in error state, it usually means the device is unable to complete a printing task due to hardware or software issues. This error may occur because of paper jams, low ink levels, incorrect printer settings, outdated drivers, or connectivity problems. To fix the issue, check all printer connections, restart both the printer and computer, clear any paper jams, and ensure drivers are up to date. If the problem persists, reinstall the printer software or reset the printer to its default settings.
