The refills have ink in the tank, but the printer will not use it. How do I override the printer so it will use the refill?
How do I refill the cartidges to my Canon PIXMA MG2120 Printer
Well then, replace the old cartridge and find one that which you think still in good conditions, then start over...refill it again and do the test if it will print..
Post back again, and hear more about your response to this..
Cheers!!
Press the OK button for 5 sec. or longer to record the use of a refilled ink tank.
Please post your feed-back.
Good Luck

When u refill the cartridge and put it in the printer, the printer will warn u about refilled cartridges. Then printer will ask u to disable the ink level detecting. The printer will ask u to press stop/reset button for about 5 seconds and it wont detect ink levels anymore. I think this is the only way to use refilled cartridges in MP500.
This is problem with the refilled cartridges, they only for 4 to 5 times and they spoil the cart, To solve your printing problem use original ink cart it will solve the problem..............(note : printer company do not support refilled cart )
good luck................
Try to remove and reset the ink tanks
Try this reset. Its a general process for canon printers might not work with yours but give it a try.
(1) Turn off the printer.
(2) Press and hold the RESUME button, then press and hold the POWER button.
(3) Release the RESUME button, Next press and release the RESUME button two(2) more times in
succession. Note: you are still holding the POWER button). The printer's carriage will "reset"
or move momentarily. If the above was properly performed the printer will enter the
"Service Mode".
(4) Press the RESUME button 4 times, this will select the clear waste ink counter function. The lamp
will alternate (change) color with each key press.
1. Service/Factory test printout, including ink sensor check.
2. EEPROM - Info printout.
3. EEPROM - Initialization.
4. Reset the Waste ink counter.
5. Printer model setting. (More selections beyond this point - However it is best leave them unaltered - You have been warned!)
After selecting the desired mode (eg 4), press the POWER button to "set" the change, and return to the top of the function selection menu. Press the POWER button again to restart the printer.
When you insert a refilled ink cartridge into your Pixma MP500 printer you should get a warning about the refilled cartridge. You should also be prompted, asking if you wish to disable ink level detecting. Agree to do so, and you won’t get the warnings again because the ink levels won’t be monitored by the printer.
That should fix the problem
remember to accept my solution if this solves it.

The ink I bought did not come with a ink refill reseter. How do I get the reseter?
The printer will use some refills for a time then stop & some refills the printer will not use the cartridge at all. The place that refilled the ink cartridges for me did not know how to get the printer to over ride the printers out of ink alert.
