How to remove the old cartridges on my Canon MP210?

This steps may solve your problem.

1.Load paper correctly then press black or color button (MP210)
2. Press on/off switch to reset the multifunction device
3. Remove Packing Material MP210
4. Reset ink cartridge MP210
5. The MP210 may require repair

If your printer is new , make sure the packing material inside the printer has been removed. You should have a quick setup page and/or users manual that will show you how to remove any packing material that is inside the printer.

If this is an older printer that has worked in the past, start with step

1, 2 and 4. If this does not work contact the Canon customer s

maybe it have the ink level chip which can be resetted by removing the cartridge and oning and offing the printer for 5 times within 10 minutes coz it saves data of a cartridge upto 5 use before only.. and 6th time insert it.

On the Canon, the alarm light blinks a certain number of times and then the green light flashes for a slightly longer time. I need to know how many times the alarm light flashes between greens. That tells us what the error is.

Put your hand under the bit with canon name on it an lift gently.

With the ink cartridges in the home position, push down on the back of the old cartridge till it snaps down. remove the old cartridge and place the new one into position and snap it up.

With the printer plugged in and the access door open, the cartridges should move to a position where you may easily lilt them back and pull them up and out one at a time.

Just changed black ink cartridge and now getting Error 5. WIll not print at all. I am quite sure the new cartridge is compatible, it a like for like replacement. Is there a way to reset or resolve this issue? thanks

Hi there,
Filling is easy - but messy. I use No 40 cartridges for my pixma ip2200.
For the black cartridge, carefully remove the label. Drill a 2-3mm dia. hole in the depression in the top. With a syringe fill, using about 10ml of black ink. Plug the hole with a suitable bung and away you go!
You will however lose the ink level indication as it is not a genuine cartridge - but that is unreliable anyway.
Don't refill more than a couple of times as the foam inside the case eventually perishes and all the ink runs out.

Whilst the cartridge is out of the printer give the jets a wipe with a wet tissue. This is usually quite effective in removing dried on ink.

You can do the same with 41 colour cartridges but it is a bit more tricky locating the correct place to drill.

Good luck
