Q. For my small office work purpose, I’ve been using Canon Pixma MX885 printer since last few months. Though the printer supports double-sided automatic document feeding, it costs me more. Is there any possible way to reduce the cost related to printing?
A. This might be possible that the ink cartridges you are using for your printer are of high-cost which eventually increases the overall cost of your printing function. Instead of using original ink cartridges, you can look forward for the compatible Canon Pixma MX885 ink cartridges. These cartridges will cost you much lower than the cartridges you are using, producing good quality prints.

Q. When I print through the Canon Pixma printer, nothing gets print or can say print results are so blurred, even the colours printed were wrong. I don’t know why I am getting such results. Can you please help.
A. This type of problem occurs mainly when the paper and the print quality settings aren’t appropriate. Confirm that the setting matches the type of media used. Also, check the status of the ink tanks, generally print quality issues are due to either clogged nozzles or because of the Canon Pixma MX885 ink cartridges that ran out of ink. When remaining ink cautions or errors occur do the needful.
Q. What can I do, if ‘the printer is offline’ message displayed in networking printing?
A. In networking printing, if this message is displayed, ‘Use Printer Offline’ option may be enabled. In this case, try out the following.
- From the control panel, select your printer model in [Devices and Printers], [Printer], or [Printers and Faxes]
- Click on to check, what is printing

Q. Can you please let me know, What media types I should not use for printing?

- Picture postcards or postcards with photos

Q. Why do my Canon Pixma MX885 ink cartridges run out of ink in a week?
A. The amount of ink that most ink cartridges use normally depends upon what you print, quality of the paper and print quality selected by you. Select the Plain Paper for printing in place of photo or other paper type option to avoid excessive ink consumption. Also, keep the print quality set to Fast or Standard and avoid higher print quality setting to conserve ink.
Q. I don’t have the original ink cartridge for my Canon Pixma MX885 printer. If I use a compatible cartridge with it, will the warranty on my printer become invalid?
A. As long as the ink cartridges are compatible with your Canon Pixma MX885 printer and don’t cause any damage to it, the warranty will remain valid.
Q. My Canon Pixma MX885 printer stopped working after I updated my Windows 10 PC through Windows Update. What should I do now?
A. When Windows 10 PC is updated through Windows Update, the connection with the device can be lost. The same must have happened to you. You may also not be able to use some features of the installed Drivers and Software. Please follow the procedure given below to solve the problem:
- Uninstall the Drivers and Software from your system
- Go to the Canon’s official site download the drivers for your printer model from their download section. Reinstall these Drivers and Software.
Starting afresh in this way normally resolves the issue.
Q. If I use a compatible ink cartridge instead of the original in my printer, will it print fewer pages?
A. No. On the contrary, compatible cartridges print the same number of pages as an original does, and at times even more.
Q. How long does an ink cartridge normally last? I’m using Canon Pixma MX885 ink cartridges for my printer?
A. That depends upon a number of factors. If the cartridge is stored properly in its original packaging and kept in a cool, dry place, it is likely to last much longer. Keeping the cartridges in an upright position exactly the way they are positioned in a printer also increases their durability. If a cartridge is used for colour printing frequently, it consumes more ink and can get worn sooner. Please follow these pointers for your Canon Pixma MX885 ink cartridges.
Q. I’ve been using compatible cartridges in my Canon Pixma MX885 printer. However, the printer works only when I put original cartridges (Canon Pixma MX885 ink cartridges) in it now. What should I do?
A. This can happen if the printer’s software is unable to detect a compatible cartridge. You might be seeing zero or low ink levels in your printer even though it is full. This problem can also occur if there’s a disruption in the communication link between the cartridge and the printer. You need to clean the surface of the copper contact plate on the cartridge.

Q. I purchased a compatible Canon Pixma MX885 ink cartridge for my Canon Pixma MX885 printer but when I opened the package, I found ink leaking from them. What am I supposed to do?

Q. I’m getting faded printouts from my Canon Pixma MX885 printer. I’m currently using compatible ink cartridges. Will switching over to Canon Pixma MX885 ink cartridges help? Please advice.
A. Before changing the cartridges, please carry out the head cleaning procedure with your printer. It may be facing a blocked head issue.
