How to reset the Canon MP150 after a refill (Step 10 concerns refill; instructions below the steps):
Method1 (Safe Factory Method):

1) Disconnect the printer’s power outlet
2) Press and hold the power button while connecting the power outlet back.
3) While still holding down the power button, press the reset button twice.(red circle with a triangle)
4) Release the power button
The printer takes about 10 seconds to show the number 0.
5) Press + to change the value from 0 to 1.
6) When this value is 1, press colour button; this will light up two leds.
One is for plain paper and the other for photo paper. At this point is feed the printer with paper.
7) Press the power button twice and the printer will print a some stuff (if it doesn't print by itself, then press the "color" button once and the test sheet will print). Don’t worry much about the printed material. I got some stripped lines and some numbers. I believe that my colour cartridge is clogged which is why I got the green strips.
When you print this sheet the value in the display returns to zero.
8 ) Open the printer cover cover (not the scanner cover) and remove the cartridges. With the printer still open, disconnect the power outlet.
9) Close the lid and turn on the printer.
10) Refill cartridges and place them back in their nice little abode in the printer.

Thanks..

this didn't work. I followed steps 1 through 3 but when reaching step 4 and released the power button no number displayed at all even after waiting several minutes. The only light on was the led for the paper size. In order to get it to come on again I had to unplug and then reconnect the power cord and I still had the empty ink configuration.

Didn't work for me either. This is my 2nd Canon printer and I've had problems after ink cartridge replacement with both...Time to shop for another "Less Troubled" brand of printer

Hey if anyone is still using their antique MG3220 and are stuck in the E08 loop (for us it was after cleaning the cartridge pad thingies). And it was just working yesterday so we know it’s just a matter of a faulty error message… we tried 20 different factory reset button combos to no avail and had decided to brick it - then my wife simply held down Black/Start and Stop/Reset at the same time for a few seconds…that cleared the code and it’s working again.
