Canon Pixma MP480 Data Port Replacement

简介

Use this guide to replace a broken data port in your Canon Pixma MP480 Printer. Replacing your data port will help you regain your USB and card readers.

The data port is a piece of hardware that is responsible for transmitting and receiving memory from your device to your printer. With a broken data port, flash drives and/or memory cards cannot connect and retrieve data from your printer to your laptop or device. Your printer's front data port (USB and Memory Card Reader) may need replacement if you plug in a flash drive or memory card reader and the printer does not recognize it.

Before using this guide, consult and review the troubleshooting page. Oftentimes, issues can be solved without replacing the data port.

Before beginning, ensure that your printer is powered off and disconnected from any external power source.
