Refilling Statement
The method for refilling cartridges that is outlined in this instruction set has been tested and found to work without issue on OEM Canon 40, 41, 50, 51, 52 printer cartridges. While we have had no problems refilling these cartridges please note that the ink level monitor in the printer will need to be disabled in order to continue to print with refilled cartridge. Each cartridge ink counter will need to be disabled as it is reported empty, and the message will not reappear for every refill there after. It is the user’s responsibility to monitor the actual ink levels and refill the cartridge when necessary. This can be done by stopping the printer when it actually runs out of ink (no ink is printed on the paper), or refilling before every large print job to ensure no interruption during the job. Running this type of cartridge without ink may damage the cartridge requiring the user to purchase a new cartridge for refilling.
The Troubleshooting section of your Canon manual discusses printer operation with refilled cartridges. Canon advises that “Canon shall not be liable for any printer malfunction or damage caused by refilled ink tanks. If you want to continue printing with the refilled ink tank installed, press and hold the RESUME/CANCEL button for at least 5 seconds, and then release it. Using refilled ink tanks are memorized. * This operation will release the function of detecting the remaining ink level.”
*Our iP1600 has been refilled 6 times with no stoppages.
*Installing a new OEM cartridge will reactivate the ink counter for use with the new cartridge.
