Question about Canon Pixma MP800 All-In-One InkJet Printer
I just changed all the ink cartridges in my printer and an error keeps appearing on the cyan cartridge. The error states "the remaining level of the following ink cannot be correctly detected".....error U130 Can anyone tell me something to do?? Im really sick of paying for more ink cartridges when there is nothing wrong with the ones ive bought, Ive already changed it twice and it keeps giving me the same error.
Hold down the "Stop/Reset" button for 5 seconds and it dismissed the first message, but then there was another for a different cartridge, etc. Eventually I got it to work.

If you have changed the cartridge twice and the error remains, it would suggest the cartridge is not at fault. Look at the contact where the cartridge inserts into the carriage and make sure they are A) Clean and B) Not bent or distorted If you are certain the contact between cartridge and carriage is good then it would suggest there may a fault further down the line. This would implicate either the cable running back to the main board or the main board itself. It would be worth spending a little time to fully investigate the carriage to cartridge contact. Let us know how the progress goes.

I had the error message U071 and U130. I pressed the stop/reset, OK, the black and color start buttons all at once and the error message just disappeared.

NOTE:
HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP ink. Printer service or repairs required as a result of printer failure or damage attributable to the use of non-HP ink will not be covered under warranty.
If a hollow ink drop icon displays, the ink cartridge represented by that color icon has very little ink remaining and will need to be changed soon. You might be able to continue printing for a short period of time with ink remaining in the print head assembly. Replace the ink cartridge when the Replace Soon warning message displays on the color graphics display.
Figure 2: Low ink level icon
When the Empty Ink message appears on the color graphics display, the indicated ink cartridge is out of ink. Replace the indicated ink cartridge.
Method two: Check ink levels from the Windows computer
The estimated amount of ink remaining in the ink cartridges can be checked from the computer. See the on-screen HP Director Help for information on checking the ink levels from the Printer

ON my Canon MP500 I got around the message 'U130 the remaining level of the following ink can not be correctly detected' by holding reset for > 5 sec, so it disengaged the ink level detection.
Now, how do you re-engage the ink level detection?
Same thing; after replacing the cartridge A, cartridges B & D are showing this error!
Worked on my Canon Pixma MX892
