To get to the ink cartridges pull up on the front of the printer just below the scanner lid. There should be a "handle" for you to grab at. Once you lift that up the ink cartridges should move to the center automatically. They will return to their original position after 10 minutes of the lid being open. Replace the cartridges by pinching the latches on top of the cartridge holder and then pressing the new ones in. Close the lid when you are done.
Also, the quick start manual for this product is located here: http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/4/0300002294/02/MP270_MP250_GS_U2_V1.pdf

1. I would suggest downloading a copy of the onscreen manual.

2. Open the onscreen manual. Click on contents>Basic Guide>Routine Maintenance >Replacing an Ink Tank.

3. Follow the step by step instructions. You will find pictures that show you exactly what to do.

SOURCE: how to change ink cartridge in canon mp390

With the machine powered on. Just lift up on the entire top portion on the platen unit, lower the front verticle cover and the printhead should come to the correct position to change out the ink tanks, just tilt tanks towards the front of the unit and lift out.

SOURCE: Canon MP F50 "wrong cartridge" error

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.

Hi, I am using Canon 1454MP 3 - in - one printer, can you tell me if refilling my cartridges will work fine (which costs Rs 100 - 250) , r I have to buy a new cartridge everytime? Please help

All canon cartridges can be refilled but you need to know the following:
  1. Use Dye Based inks, not water based
  2. Do not refill the cartridge if it is completely empty, it may not work
  3. Keep in mind the ink levels can not be reset after a refill, so you will have to put up with a empty cartridge warning.
It is much more cost effective to refill than to purchase a new cartridge. We have successfully refilled these types of cartridges over 10 times each.
These links below will also provide useful information regarding refilling.

Make sure you are using factory new Canon ink cartridges.

If you purchased re-filled cartridges or third party cartridges that is most likely your problem.
