    I need to replace ink cartrige can i use a 41 color instead of a 51 color

    The Canon PIXMA MP160 uses the FINE Cartridges: PG-40 Black, CL-41 Color and CL-51. The only difference is the CL-51 is Hi-Capacity. I have included the link to the support portion of the Canon site so you can see what is available for supplies and if your need help in the future with your printer.

    How to fix problem E16 in my printer canon mp160

    E16 – The ink level cannot be correctly recognized or detected.
    How to correct, fix: A used ink cartridge may be installed, or the ink cartridge is empty. Press the <Black> or <Color> button, to clear the error and continue printing without replacing the ink cartridge. However, the remaining ink amount cannot be detected properly, so the function to detect the remaining ink amount does not operate.

    First, download the software at http://www.box.net/shared/4yblbn34kg

    Secondly, to run the software your printer has to be in service mode. Do that by
    - unplug cable
    - press and hold "power" button
    - plug cable
    - press "resume" and release
    - release the "power" button
    At this stage, your computer will detect a new hardware

    Run the software.

    oke
