Follow the steps below to do Reset on your printer.

If this does not work, try the steps below


To reset waste ink counter at printers canon pixma MP150, MP160, MP170, MP180, MP450 and MP460 there any 2 choice, that is :

• Start with printer on then run this software
• Click Reset Main (main) to reset waste ink counter and then click Reset Platen button (additional)

The error 5 means that the printer cartridge has been "turned off." It is a tactic that Canon has employed to try to prevent refilling of their cartirdges. Basically the machine is constantly checking for signs of a non-original Canon cartridge and has found something to tip it off. We most commonly see this with the color cartridges not the black. The solution is to replace the faulty cartridge.

Canon printers do not like the refilled ink cartridges. After having ruined a few printers trying to "save" money. I went back to genuine Canon ink and have never had a problem since.

I think you will find that it is the ALARM light that is flashing, is that correct?

If it is just push the O.K. button to except that the cartridge is not the original or has been filled after you got the meassage that the cartridge was empty.

Also it will show that the ink levels are unknown in both cartridges but thats O.K. it will print fine.
