Hi
This is not head problem my dear this is cartridge problem, that your cartridge in not genuine, take the new cartridge in nearest canon showroom, because duplicate cartridge make this "error".

Use the canon utility and run a cleaning cycle. I hope I have been of help but please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions. I appreciate your vote if you appreciate my reply.
if you ever get this figured out, let me know, my mp730 says the same thing, i had the head cleaned after i got a wrong cartridge error and now i have a put in cartridge error
Wrong cartridge means the printhead has gone bad, no amount of cleaning will help. Sorry about the poor advice, but you just need a new printhead.QY6-0034-010 around $45.00
remove all cartridges leaving printhead intact. close cover, turn off turn on, let power up, error message should be gone. open cover, reinstall cartridges if you cleaned your print head like I did you'll probly eventually end up getting a new one anyway, due to the color variations but I can at least print text.
I don't know how in the world this worked but it did..on the F50 multipass.
1: Remove Cartridges 2: Unplug the AC Power Cord 3: Hold down the RESUME button 4: Release RESUME after plugging in the AC Power cord. 5: Press the RESUME once within 5 seconds and release the RESUME . 6: Press and HOLD RESUME for two seconds or more and release it. 7: Press and HOLD RESUME for two seconds or more and release it. 8: Unplug AC Power Cord to set data.
Go to this link if you are unable to find the"Wrong Catridge" link
then you need to type "wrong cartridge " in the small search box on the website.
If the website asks you to select
"Category.=Multifunction"
"Product Type =Inkjet"
"Model= Multipass F50"
