If you look closely though, you can just make out the squares. The printer very helpfully hides all the buttons.
*** You will need the printer plugged into a USB port on your computer to use the reset tool.ġ. BUT you can simply unplug the power for at least 30 seconds, and the printer will reset itself and you can try again. But it makes you panic at first, because the printer stops responding, won't turn on, and all sorts of scary things. If you do the wrong thing, you can recover it. I worked this out by experimenting and lots of patience (and cussing.). There are lots of wrong instructions on the web for the first of these. Use servicetool.exe to reset the ink absorber to 0% There are two stages to fixing this problem: Eventually though, it changes and starts giving an Error 5B00 and refusing to print. This will happen every 20 pages or so, and you can continue the first 10 or 20 times. When you have used your 6150 for a LOT of printing, maybe 50,000 sheets, it will finally decide enough is enough and start telling you its Ink Absorber is almost full. Use these instructions at your own risk, as they are obviously not Canon approved. Probably works for MG6100 and other similar generation printers. I HAVE THE SOLUTION - for real - for an actual Canon MG6150.
