Canon pro4100- end of roll error message?
« on: May 26, 2026, 01:01:47 pm »

Canon pro 4100 Printer works great- except when I get to near the end of the roll of paper- 10feet or so left- I get an error message that there is not enough paper to complete the print.   Error code 1021.  I am printing 24x36" prints-- there is enough paper left over for at least 3 prints.   This happens with different papers.
Is there a way to force printing with the remaining paper??   I can't find it.   I hate to throw away that much paper end of roll.
Thanks for any input.

Under "device settings" and then "paper related settings" there are some menu items where you can disable the warning/autostop.

But I would be careful not to print so close to the end of a roll that the paper detaches from the core. I got a little piece of tape stuck in the platen/feed area of my Canon 4100 that I had to extract with an exacto blade and it was a stressful experience. I usually leave a foot or two on the roll if possible and then cut that up into sheets for proofing.

Thanks for the help.   I will give those settings a try.
