Inkjet Cartridges
8 Answers
I have an Canon Pixma 220 and have just purchased two new, but reconditioned cartridges from a firm I have dealt with for several years, but when I have inserted the cartridges into the printer I still have a window appear stating that inks are running low. I have consulted the instruction book but cannot find the way to rectify the problem, so perhaps someone can inform me how to. TIA

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Some manufacturers put a chip in the cartridge which holds a count of the number or pages printed. When it reaches whatever number the manufacturer decides is the low ink limit, their software will pop up a message warning you.
As the cartridges are reconditioned, the chip still holds the page count from previous use, hence the warning. Just click on whatever button on the message will let you ignore the warning and carry on printing (it's the OK button on the warenings from our Lexmark). and keep an eye on the print quality to give you an idea of when the cartridge needs to be changed again
