Out of ink message but just put new cartridge in

From http://www.refreshcartridges.co.uk/igloo/clearing-canon-pixma-error-message-e13-e16/

Locate the STOP/RESET/RESUME button on your printer which is represented by a triangle within a circle on the body of your printer and is usually in red, white or black as pictured below. With the reset button located hold it down for at least five seconds and then release it.

This hapens when refilled cartridges are installed in the printer. To rectify the problem, look for the 'Resume button' normally black with a red circle around an arrow head pointing towards you. With the printer powered on, press and hold this button down for about 10 seconds. The error code will usually clear and the printer will print but the orange lights will still flash.

Try the following:

1. Open the printer access door.
2. Put out both ink cartridges and the printhead.
3. Let the printer access door open.
4. Put out all paper.
5. Pull out the ac adapter at the back of the printer.
6. Wait 60 sec.
7. Pull in AC adapter.
8. Wait 30 sec. then turn on the printer
9: Wait for the error message: Printer access door open.
10. Close the printer access door.
11. Wait for the error message: Printhead is missing.
12. Open the access door and put in only the printhead and the close the access door.
13. Wait for the error message: both ink cartridges are missing.
14. Open access door, put in only the black ink cartridge, then close the acess door.
15. Wait for the error message: Color ink cartridge is missing.
16. Open access door, put in the color ink cartridge and then close the access door.

If the error is solved, do a firmwareupdate right now.

You can find it here.

Try removing the black and see if the error is still there. If it goes away the black is bad, if it stays you got a defective new color cartridge.

the main issue here is that your printer don't recognize your new black cartridge.
try shutdown your printer and on it again or long press on your power button ..
and your also to open close your main door of your printer..
so that it will recognize the full black cartridge.

I realised that I had to replace both the ink cartridges even though I only wanted to replace the black for it to work. Once I replaced both the black and colour cartridge the red light went off. Thanks

Have you tried

1. Taking out all the cartridges
2. Power down the power
3. Power up the printer
4. Open the scanner Cover
5. Close the scanner cover
6. Message will ask you to put the ink.
7. Put in Black
8. Close scanner cover
9. It may ask you whether the Black is being changed.
10. Open the cover.
11. Install Cyan.
12. Repeat step 8-10 for the rest of the 2 colours.
13. It should resolve the Black ink empty message.

Let us know if this works.

Thank you.

Hi,

How I solved this problem was, I took out the color cartridge (which seem to be the one giving the error message) and worked only with the black ink (and chose print black and white )

My color ink cartridge had been refilled at Walgreens. The Black ink cartridge is an original Lexmark
