If your printer reports an ink setting problem or indicates that the cartridge is empty after refilling the Canon cartridge, you can continue printing with a refilled cartridge by following these steps.
- Undoing a printer error: Press and hold the printer's button for 5 to 10 seconds. On some Canon printer models, this button may be marked as or .
- Setup on multifunction devices: If you are using a multifunctional device that includes a printer, a scanner and a copier, after the first step, press the black or colour copy button, depending on which cartridge (black or colour) has been filled. Hold this button for at least 5-10 seconds.
After these steps, the printer and computer will no longer display the ink level, but the printer will continue to work. This avoids error messages and allows the use of a refilled cartridge.
