See, the problem with the solutino supplied by deanrkb is that it completely resets the machine. EVERYTHING! Fax header, ring time - fax settings, activity reports and everything! And it reset the levels for both black and color cartridges, while I refilled only the color one and removed and put it back as indicated in the instructions, leaving the black one at it's place the whole time.

I would say thanks for trying, but this is a method to reset your machine completely, not only the ink level indicators!

Refill the cartridge and insert it. Run the cleaning cycle.

With printer powered on, press and hold stop/reset button. The alarm light will flash several times (it did it 10 times for me) after that it the alarm lamp goes off and the ink level monitor is reset on the printer. The computer still thinks the ink is low.
