Occasionally, some printers may not recognise compatible ink cartridges. This video from www.thriftyink.com.au shows you how you can easily fix this problem.
I was about to take mine apart and try some real intensive DIY. For the last three weeks I have tried every solution under the sun and to take it apart was my last resort. Brand new MFC-J460DW Brother Work Smart bought four weeks ago and has been useless and unable to print at all. THIS man is right. IT WORKED. BELIEVE THIS MAN. To anyone with the same printer I have, your problems are over finally as are mine. THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES OVER to this wise man with such simple solutions. So far, so good. Goes back to the 'cleaning' mode after printing but a little wait is well worth taking it apart or setting it on fire. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.
Papa Arnold, I have gone through a number of youtube post to fix the ink cartridge issue on my Epson wf-7620 and had no success. After watching your tutorial i had success and the printer recognized the ink cartridges. I appreciate the old school tutorials as it reminds me of all the safety videos i have seen here in Australia. Thank you Arnold
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I went through weeks of research, cleaning, refilling cartridges, and calls to Canon, and nothing could get my Pro-100 to recognize my cartridges. I was starting to look for deals on new printers when I came across this video. I tried it, and it fixed the problem beautifully. Bravo!
Thank you very much for this easy fix. I have been strugling with my HP officejet 4500 for almost an hour. Replacing the color cartridge that was refilled and lying in my desk almost a year. Now it is working just fine. Thanks again.
Thank you SO MUCH! I have been without a printer for months because I couldn't figure out how to fix this issue. I'm so glad I landed on your video because your method fixed the problem! Thanks again :)
Yes!! Thank you!! Worked for my Epson work force 2630. I bought refillable cartridges and was so disappointed when it wouldn’t read, then I found out I couldn’t return them. Thought I had made a bad investment and was going to write them off as a loss and go back to buying new cartridges. Thank you for saving me headaches and money!!
I tried other troubleshoot videos on this issue with my Pixma ip100 printer - cartridge not recognize - without success. Only when I followed your troubleshoot video the issue was resolved! Thank you so much Sir!! God bless you!!!
awesome video, worked for me like a charm. I was getting upset at HP for needing they're ink. I was about to turn my generic brand ink, until I saw your video. thanks so much and happy birthday 😊
Oh my goodness! It worked!!! I was having trouble with my Canon MX922 and I followed this advice and it worked like a charm! Thank you so much for your help!! I really appreciate it!
Thank you so much. You saved my HP1315v from going in the trash. I had tried turning the printer on and off but not disconnecting it from the wall. I don't have a switch on my wall. I just unplugged the computer, waited five minutes and turned it back on and the the troublesome red E "cartridge error' went away and I could print in color.
I’m having technical difficulty with my WF 3640!!! I’m just about ready to pull my hair out! Nothing is working! First it was the black and now it’s fine now it’s cyan and magenta not working right! Ughhhhhhhh it says it’s not recognized
I couldn't find a working solution anywhere else on the internet. But I found this video and it worked on my Brother MFC-J67190W printer. Thanks so much as all the other "solutions" failed until I tried this one!
Hey.. ! Man. Thanks a lot.. it work for me... my printer is good to go now.. :).. i thought I will nedd to bring it to the techinician and surely will cost me a lot.. Thank you very much! :)
We have a MX922, one of the most sold printer in US, probably in the world. I tried what you Grandpa suggests here. it seems to work. Have to print more things to make it sure though. The Cannon served well but when it doesn't work, wow it is very frustrating. thanks for the video.
Greetings Arnold. My printer (MX922) displayed "ON" LEDs only for 1 cartridge, that is atop cartridge. The others had LEDs on at the bottom. Printed stuff looked awful. However, followed your method and got success. Good advice, great video. Thank you.
thank you so much, I was worried and sad about my new epson, I did as you said and It worked pretty well, some people here wrote that not worked for them, I think if it does not work at the first time then do it again
Thanks for showing me how to fix this issue. Canons can be so finicky even when using a reliable brand of ink. In my case, the PGI 250XL (black photographic ink) was rejected again after running your troubleshoot. I restarted your troubleshoot and left the cover open but didn't remove any cartridges. The PGI 250XL cartridge light was barely lit but after a few minutes, the light brightened to the intensity of the others. I closed the cover and it ran its cycle and accepted that cartridge.
Just an update, it’s didn’t work... Any ideas anyone?? We are using not the original inks by the way but it’s shows red light connection. So they must be working??? Thanks

Curious to know if it worked for everyone else who said it didn't... I have a 3640, and don't wanna pay full price for Epson cartridges
The solution still works like a charm. Thank you! So relieved that I did not have to throw my printer away.
