Repair or reset Canon PIXMA MP240 printer
How do you repair or reset Canon PIXMA MP240 printer after refilling ink cartridges? I refilled the Canon PIXMA MP240 cartridges using a refill kit. Printer won't recognize them anymore. Hours of Googling and pressing random buttons resulted in nothing useful. Any idea if it's even possible to "convince" a Canon PIXMA MP240 printer to take refilled cartridges? If so, how?
Repair or reset Canon PIXMA MP240 printer:
- Disconnect the power cable to the printer.
- Hold down the On/Off button.
- Reconnect thew power cable.
- With the power button still down, press the Stop/Reset button twice.
- Release the On/Off button.
- The printer is now in the factory mode (wait until idle is displayed)
- Press the right arrow button (next to the OK button) repeatedly until Shipping Mode 3 is displayed.
- Press the OK button.
- Wait until "Without Cleaning" is displayed and then press the Stop/Reset button once.
- A test page should print, but if not, don't worry.
- Open the cover. The cartridge should position themselves at the far left-(the cartridge removal location.)
- Disconnect the power cable.
- Remove both cartridges.
- Close the cover.
- Reconnect the power cable.
- Press the On/Off button.
- Wait until a Replace Cartridges message is displayed. Now insert the cartridges.
- Close cover and wait until the printer is in the normal mode and displays the normal start menu (i.e. Copy)
