Cl-41 to cl-51

I read that cl-41 and cl-51 were the same ink cartridge but the cl-51 held more ink so i bought some cl-51s and 50s online and of course the computer won't recognize them and i was just wondering if i can just download a driver to get it to recognize it or do i have to buy another printer. My printer is a canon mp210 If you have any suggestions just email them to [email protected] Thanks

SOURCE: CL 51 Cartridge for IP1600

Canon's compatibility list says that the IP1600 will only take the low yield cartridges. The only way you could use a high yield one is if you buy a compatible (non genuine) cartridge and these are only the low yield cartridges filled to high yield levels anyway which is why it will work.

Good luck.
Please rate my advice, good or bad.

SOURCE: Canon PIXMA MP210

Hi. This might be stating the obvious, but try cleaning the contacts in the printer and on the cartridge with isopropal alcohol. I have a Canon Pixma MP520 which I have had for most of this year now, and it works fine. I am not sure if I will be buying another Canon printer after the problems I have just read on FixYa though! Another thing you might try is carefully bending the contacts on the printer that touch the copper strips on the cartridge to ensure they touch properly. I have not looked too closely at mine, but I presume there must be copper contacts of some sort that are spring loaded, which press up against the contacts on the cartridge when it is installed. Hope that helps.

SOURCE: Error Number : 1485 The following ink cartridge cannot be recogni

Nope! Canon played a little nasty on re-fillers and made these cartridge virtually un-fillable. Not that they can't be refilled, they can. They just won't be recognized in your machine.
They have done a couple of strange things with the software and the cartridge.

1. Software writes to the cartridge to actually marry it to the machine. This encodes id numbers on the cartridge so that another machine cannot use the cartridge.
2. They have placed a "fuse" of some type in the cartridge which is actually "blown" when the "out of ink" message is displayed. This renders the cartridge un-usuable for another cycle.

I like the Canon product. Just not these particular ones. The ones that take cartridges 30/31/40/41/50/51. I have seen too many of them come into my shop for repairs after barely 2 years of use. They are un-repairable regardless of their issues.

I suggest you look at a different Canon product, one that takes the individual ink tank cartridge PG-5 and CL-8 series. These are much better machines and the printer itself will last longer.
Just be aware that you will have an added cost in the print head which is a consumable that will need to be replaced every 3 years or so!

Canon Pixma MP210 will not recognize high yield PG-50 & CL-51 cartridges.

The canon pixma mp 210 uses PG-30, CL-31, PG-40, CL-41
It will not recognized the PG-50 & CL- 51
See if you can return it and exchange it for the PG-40 & CL-41.
If not, the only other way is to transfer the ink into the other ink cartridges.
The cartridge cap can be removed by a sharp tap at the back end of the cover.
You can glue back the cover.
If there is an E 1,6 Error code, Ink has run out after you install your ink cartridges
Press and hold the stop/reset button for about 10 seconds to clear the error code.

I purchased new ink cartridges PG-30 and CL-31 I get error 5

Make sure you take the tape off of the electrical contacts before installing, and if they are refilled cartridges they have not been reset properly. If they are genuine Canon, you can return defective ones for 30 days.

Canon MP460 cartridge error

"Verify that you are using Canon(TM) cartridges. The technology has progressed to where they have modified the ink to be identified by their printers. You cannot currently use refill cartridge inks to refill Canon cartridges. If that is not your issue, then try removing and replacing the cartridge(s)and reset the ink level indicator.
Lets hope for the best!
Regards,
Eagle"

Honestly.. There is absolutely no way for Those Canon printers to "look inside" or "Detect" the formulation of ink inside the cartridge...

Canon CL-31, CL-41, CL-51, CL-52 Print cartridges have the highest electronic _Failure_ rate of anything other inkjet cartridge on the market. Canon is aware of this. Replacing the Cartridge is the only sure-fire way of fixing this.

*sometimes the printer will tell you its the color cartridge, when in fact its the black cartridge. its advised to replace them both during these error messages.. it'll save you a trip, and the customer service rep's head. haha"

Using an Aftermarket or "re-filled" canon original cartridge is a sustainable resource for anyone looking to re-use an end-user item, and save money in this "tied-selling" market.

I proved you wrong by replacing my inkjets with Oringinal Canon PG-40 black, and CL-41 color cartridge. I ran them until they were empty. Bypassed the Ink Metering System explained to me through the canon software provided during the printer installation, and continued to print with them until they were 110% bone dry empty, laying absolutely no ink on the page. this took approx. 3 hours from perfect start, to finish.

If "canon printers have progressed so much as to distinguish formulations of ink" then.. this canon sure was the PICK of the litter. it continued to print *** as the day it was purchased, while not laying a single droplet of ink on the page.

get a life. stop dissing the aftermarket with your un-supported facts!

reguards,
