I have to ask this question of you, just to make sure this is not an issue. Are you using a factory new ink cartridge?
Please consider the following:
If you are using a refilled or third party cartridge that may well be your problem. Most manufacturers build logic into their products to prevent the use of “Other Equipment Manufactured” cartridges as well as re-filled cartridges.
They do this to prevent problems from contaminated inks causing problems with print quality or damaging the physical printhead.
If you are using factory new cartridges, then please call the manufacturers Technical Support for assistance with the warranty on the cartridges

WRONG CARTRIDGE

Press the reset button if they can correct that problem. Maybe you can used the not genuine cartridge on your printer or it could be not properly inserted your cartridge. Try to power off the printer and check your cartridge then power on it again.

"Wrong Cartridge" Message is being displayed on the Canon MP 780

Remove the print head and cartridges.Unplug machine for 30 min.
Repower and reseat head and ink do a head alignment.
If this does not correct it may require service.
Ink Cartridges are the BCI6 and 3 series correct?
If using CLI8's and they are flashing red you have a bad cartridge or it is in the wrong location.If so Canon will replace the bad cartridge.

The alarm is flashing

Wrong cartridge means your printhead is worn out, not inks, you just need a new printhead.

Canon MPC400 - Error 335 - Ink ... Wrong Cartridge Error Message

How long was the cartridge in there? If the cartridge was in there for a long period of time the inc most likely leaked out and is now on the sensor bar and it cant see that you have replaced the cartridge. try taking some Q tips and some rubbing alcohol and cleaning the bottom of the cartridge, the cartridge holder, and the rail where the ink is released.

Error message wrong cartridge

its not a true fix but I had the same issue. I turned off printer and slightly moved the paper thickness lever over a few inches. I turned it back on and the cartridge error was off. I do get a pop up from my printer program on the computer every time I initiate a print job asking to correct the lever, I click OK and it prints. I know its aRube Goldberg fix but I need this printer every day for work and for now it works.

Wrong cartridge

I have the multipass mp700 and have just experienced the same message ..... wrong cartridge. After reading the manual, from the disc, it means that there's something wrong with the print head, most likely needs cleaning, but it won't clean because the printer is sending a malfunction message. I will be trying to clean the head and if that doesn't fix it then I'll buy a new print head. Good luck with the problem.
