  2. Hold button Resume/Cancel (red triangle in the circle), click on POWER – an indicator light green.

Error: ''Wrong Cartridge'' when no new cartridge has been installed
It is probably one of the cartridges. Usually, when the message "wrong cartridge" appears, the cartridge is faulty.

Receiving message stating "wrong cartridge"
Overnight I started getting the "wrong cartridge" message on my Canon MP780. I use only OEM cartridges. As the Canon website suggested, I replaced the printhead with a new one (Empire Office Machines for $48.25 plus shipping) and it works great. Prints better than ever. Easy fix for my machine. I did read that using refills can cause more problems than just the printhead.
