How to Fix Error on Canon Printer?

Hello, I just hooked my Canon 950 printer with Macbook Pro. While printing, documents look like they are going to print but LED flashes orange and nothing prints. At this moment, “error 311” displays on the system. I have no idea when everything is connected properly then why I am facing “error 311”. Please help me as I have to print some office documents.
