Refilled, full ink cartridges, but...

I let refill the ink cartridges (PG 40, CL 41) of my MX300 and they're really full! But the MX 300 shows in it's display: "Black ink low, coolur ink low". I've been told that the MX300 has to be "reset": Do you know h o w this can be done?

Hold Power and release the stop/reset button
Press the stop/reset button twice

Wait until the power button lights a steady/still green, press the stop/reset button three times with a 3 sec space between each press.
On the 3rd press the inicator should be orange.
