Tuesday, November 24th, 2009How to reset the ink level for Canon MX308?
Canon MX308 (Canon MX300 series) was indicating low ink levels for black and color. If you have refilled both of them, but You still have a low ink indication or ( “blk ink vol unkown” and “clr ink vol unkown” on the printer screen ).
Now, I find a solution how to reset the ink level for Canon Mx308, just follow these steps:
1. Disconnect the power cable
2. Connect it while holding down the power button
3. With the power button still down, press twice the “Cancel/Stop” red button
4. Release the power button
5. The printes turns into a kind of factory mode…(wait for about 10 seconds, utils it says “Idle”)
6. Press the “>” (next to the “OK” button) once.”Shipping Mode 3″
7. Press the “OK” button.
8. Press “OK” again for “Without cleaning”
9. A test page will print..
10. Open the cover, like you are about to change the cartridges.
11. Disconnect the power cable again.
12. Take out both cartridges.
13. Close the cover.
14. Connect the power cable once again.
15. Turn the printer on.
16. Now just put the cartridges back…
I have tried and could reset the inks volume to 100% full. These steps also work fine on other Pixma Mx300 series….
