Thanks for letting us know what Canon product you've got. The PIXMA MX410 is an older model which we have retired. While that means that Canon USA no longer offers direct support for it, your friends here in the Canon Community are welcome to offer suggestions!

You can also speak with a Canon Upgrade Program specialist to help you score a modern replacement that would meet your current needs at a discount. You can reach them Monday to Friday at 1-866-443-8002.

Hope this helps!

I think if you are using cartridges that you are refilling yourself you might need to reset the chips on the cartridge.

Greetings,

Ink cartridges have an electronic chip that communicates ink level and status with the printer. Simply refilling with ink is not enough. You typically also need a chip reprogrammer to reset the ink level and status on a cartridge.

Well JR, just bought a Brother- Tank Fill something or other Printer, that doesn't have cartridges, but, you apparently fill a tank with ink. Lets see how thats gonna go. I'm gonna put the Canon Pixma in my Recording Studio, but still gotta get it to work. Thanx for everything JR
