Sometimes when you have refilled your ink cartridge, your printer still reports your ink levels as low. This can be an annoying occurrence, but there is a way around it. Below is a guide to getting your computerto acknowledge that there is a new ink cartridge.

Turn your printer on and take out the cartridges.
Take a piece of tape and cover contact #1 left hand side
Put the cartridge back into the printer. It will print out an alignment page.
Take the cartridge out and put tape over contact #2 right hand side.
Remove all the tape and put the cartridge back into the printer. The ink levels should now be reset.
