Hi everyone, i have been using non OEM cart's in my Canon Pixma MG5320 for a while, now all i get is error message, print head is incorrect? Help?

Yes the dreaded canon error code. Image simply cleaned the printer head which worked and on another machine I was unable to remove and ended up replacing the printer. This is a difficult area to get answer but I would recommend a search. Could be a cartridge, dirty print head, faulty circuit in printer. Pull cartridges an put back in first. Also plenty of ideas online.

I had that happen once, when I cleaned the ink nozzles, it corrected itself.

I had the same problem. My HP printer is prrogrammed to recognize generic cartridges and it refuses to work. I followed the instructions to remedy but it didn't work. They did refund my $. You know Amazon censors negative reviewsof products. Happened to me. It makes me very wary of trusting reviews. For example why is this company still selling cartridges that do not work?!

Not only does it look the same, the 57 cartridge fits in perfectly. However, the software in the printer displays an error message when the 57 cartridge is used instead of the 22. I already own 56 carts from a previous unit & would like to be able to use them. If anyone knows a way to defeat the error code, would appreciate it.

That was my problem. I bought a printhead replacement in November 2014 but by the time it arrived, my printer was working again. So I set the printhead aside, unopened. Last week, I had the same problem, so I used the replacement that I bought here. Once it was in place, I got a message that said "Ink System Failure." I took it out and put it back in several times, with the same result. I came to Amazon to see if I could send it back, but was told that the return period expired in January. So now I'm out $70 for a printhead that doesn't work. I'm very disappointed.

I also have a Epson XP310 and the printer driver showed a warning that I had installed non-OEM ink, but I continued anyway and the printer is working fine. Are you seeing a similar warning? If so, just accept it and the printer should work fine. Also, make sure the cartridge is properly seated.

One of several error codes that are plaguing this model and many others. I would never again advise a friend to buy a Canon printer. For the reasons why, I suggest you Google "Canon U052 Wrong Printhead Error" for the full story. There is a class action lawsuit under way.

I have a Pixma MG6320 which uses the same ink. The Skia cartridges work fine. The one problem if you want to call it that, is that the canon print utility no longer shows how much ink is left when I check Supply Levels. I will find out if that matters when they run out.

I used these cartridges on a Canon Pixma and have no problems, but I have a different printer than MG5120.

I have a brand-new Canon Pixma printer. No problems whatsoever if I use genuine 240xl, 241xl ink cartridges. Replacements DO NOT FUNCTION, REGARDLESS THE MANUFACTURER. The printer simply cannot identify them. WHAT A RIP-OFF ! peter3434@att.net

The dreaded B200 error message. Sorry to disappoint you, but your 5220 is dead now. Search "MG5220 B200 error" on google and among the rants you will find some advice for re-seating print heads, cleaning electrical contacts, etc, but none of the suggestions worked for me or many other people. Canon customer service will be happy to offer you a loyalty discount to replace your old 5220 for a newer model for a discounted price HIGHER than what you can buy the newer model for on Amazon already.

I could not get the print heads to work and my HP Office Jet 8500Pro is siting idle. I could not find a way to make it work. I spent hours withHP tech Support and they could not help, they suspect that the print heads are defective, I wish you can help.Dov Novick at: m34fun@yahoo.com

I honestly don't know. I tossed this cord after I discovered that it would not work with the Canon PIXMA MG2220 that I had ordered. As you are aware, the USB cord does not come with the printer (shame on Canon). So, I ordered an extra cord. Well, the cord wouldn't even fit the connection. I tossed it in the trash and ended up using the one I had from the defunct MP560. Sorry, I can't help you with your question.

Absolutely! I have the Canon Pixma MG5520 and have used two of the color cartridges so far and they work perfectly. I have not yet used the black cartridges but I suspect they will work just as well. I previously owned a Kodak printer and decided to try remanufactured cartridges and tried a local vendor. It was a disaster...ruined my printer. I purchased the Canon as a replacement.

Hi the replacement cartridge seems to work for [SUB-CARTRIDGE INK TANK 5 Pack] for Canon PGI-225 CLI-226 Cartridge Pixma MG5120 MG5200 MG5220 MG5220 RFB MG5320 IX6520 MX712 MX880 MX882 MX892...I am currently using it just fine for my MG5320 model Canon printer. Hope this helps you.

Carl! I just did it... took out the color cartridge and it printed a B/W image....hey thank YOU it is good to know just for general purposes. BTW it is darn good little printer and if you can find it on sale as I did (40 bucks) also there is a vendor here that sells both cartridges for under 20 bucks including shipping...they wanted 48 bucks at Staples for the dang cartridges themselves for cryin' out loud........:>}

I'm not sure about your particular error message. My problem was that the printer went through all of its usual motions, but there was no ink coming out of the print head (even with new ink cartridges installed). I did buy Printhead Cleaner Original, did a few cleaning cycles (the instructions say to do one - I did three) just to make sure there was no more dried up ink in the printhead, and after a few nozzle cleanings the printer works like brand new - the cleaner did work really well in my situation. For the price it couldn't hurt to try it, since if your printer is anything like mine was, there are few replacement parts to be found and nobody around cleans printers anymore. Hope that helps!

I have a MFC-5890CN, and everything works so far. I've only replaced the black and blue cart. so far, but the machine has had no problems with them. Love the price as opposed to OEM cartridges. No problems with leaks either.
