Hello,
make sure you removed the orange tape from the cartridge.
usualy E5 is when the color cartridge is faulty but if the orange tape is on the cartridge it will show E5.
if you removed the orange tape an it still shows E5 go with the cartridge to the store where you purcess it for excange.

I use refilled cartridges. Okay, the printer says ink low, but it does that all the time. I ignore it. However, yesterday it printed not a problem, today it gives me code 5. Does anyone have a real solution or should I throw the printer away?

Do not use tissues it leaves residue on the capstan and printing area always use Q tips

E5 error code occurs in certain models of Canon Pixma printers such as the Canon MP160 and Canon MP150, you may receive an E5 error when trying to print. In this state, you will not be able to use any of the functions of your printer. The error itself is an ink cartridge error. It may be that you are using generic or off-brand ink cartridges in your Canon Pixma printer. Canon Pixma printers do not work with other brands of print cartridges; invest in Canon brand ink cartridges and this should take care of your problem.

E5, says the ink cartridges are the wrong type, not properly installed, or not installed at all. You can't refill those without replacing the chip or resetting the chip. Many refilled cartridges just don't work...

I have been using black and color ink refills for sometime now, but am unable to use my printer since last week. It shows E5 and on the dialogue box is stated that it cannot recognize the COLOR.
