imageCLASS MF753Cdw How to get app to stop displaying low toner warning

This app seemed like a good idea, but now it is just a useless annoyance. I don't usually look at the display -- I grab the paper out when it prints. I use the app to check, and would appreciate useful notifications, but don't find this one useful. Or at least there should be an acknowledge option.

I have the MF753CDW (since it was suggested to list the model, although I think it applies to all Canon printers). When this started, I had the printer for about 15 months on the original toner and it started to pop up that I had 30% on the black, "Prepare a cartridge). I bought 4 of the large cartridges (069H) shortly afterwards. It took me 15 months to drop from 100% to 30% on the black; I would guess that it'll take at least 6 months to empty it. Guessing "prepare" means order a new cartridge, but even if I didn't already have it and appreciated that alert to order a new one, there must be a way to acknowledge that I have it (or got it and now have it).

I do not want 6-9 more months of the app popping up but do want to be advised when it needs to be replaced. So, is there any way to do this? I want to acknowledge that I have "prepared" and now (for that cartridge, at least), just want to know when to replace it.

Barring that, is there a way to get such notification when I need to do something? I am not going to throw out a cartridge with 6 months or more of use left just to get rid of the annoyance but would appreciate a real heads-up. And yes, if I hadn't bought the cartridges early, I probably would have appreciated an early warning so I could possibly look for deals.

I'm guessing that if I stop the service from running, I can run the app manually and then stop it again, but I'd be likely to miss when it gets critical and then be stuck at a possibly unfortunate time when I need it now and can't print.

(Glad I bought them when I did; the base price seems much higher, and in the future, I don't expect to get the discount for buying 4, since the colors are all at 90%. I want color occasionally but don't use it much.)

Note: I posted most of the above about a month or two ago on another thread, it recently dropped to 20% black and 80% colors -- guess it only goes in units of 10%; hopefully under 10 it goes by 1 -- I'll find out sometime next year. But almost every day I keep getting that popup. The app was in theory a good idea, but in practice is a bug annoyance. Still, I don't want to stop it and not get notified when it goes critical. (Would be nice if it maybe alerted once a week until critical.)

I have the same issue. The app has been popping up saying my toner is *empty* for a few months now and it's still working/printing fine. Granted, I'm a low volume user (home office) but this is so far off, that I can't trust its indications at all. And it pops up all the time....

I'm guessing that no one from the company monitors this; it's been almost two weeks and no response.

An app that could have been useful is just an annoyance. At least yours must be what they consider low, but given that mine suggests that it moves in 10% increments, it's not clear if you're at what they consider critically low, or have "only" 10% to go.

Greetings,

Uninstall the toner status utility if installed. It's somewhat noisy. You can always see the status of your toner on the printer. You'll also get notified when you print without having the constant notification from the utility.
