  • !1007 returns even with the correct tray loaded properly.
  • !You hear repeated pickup noise with no paper movement.
If the printer still starts normally: This is often recoverable with the basic checks below, as long as the printer returns to ready without a deeper service warning.

What to check first

Step-by-step checks

  1. 1

    Consumable check

    Reload a small stack of clean paper in the tray the printer is currently set to use.

    Start with the official recovery step before moving on to parts or deeper servicing.

  2. 2

    Safe first step

    Check the source setting in the print dialog or on the printer before retrying.

  3. 3

    Consumable check

    Square the paper stack and align the guides without pinching the sheets.

Background

What this message usually means

Canon uses support code 1007 on MB2700-series printers when the selected paper source is empty or the machine could not start feeding correctly. It is usually a paper loading or tray-selection issue rather than a deeper hardware fault.

Before the message

What users usually notice first

Messages like this often appear after the printer fails one of its normal startup, supply, or paper-path checks and cannot return to ready state cleanly.

Diagnosis

Likely causes

Most common

The selected tray is empty.

Common

Paper is loaded badly, curled, or below the pickup point.

Possible

The printer is still expecting a different source than the one you filled.

Service

When service or replacement is more likely

  • -Treat 1007 as a paper-source check first, not a service code.

Avoid wrong turns

Common misreads of this message

  • -Treating the message like a confirmed failed part instead of a support clue about which system has stopped the printer.
  • -Assuming no physical path issue exists just because no full sheet is visible at first glance.
