i can print now. but the ink level is still detected on my pc as a low ink level even my cartridges are full of ink. maybe because i only refilled my ink cartridges. is there any way to reset the ink level of my pixma canon 258 even i used refill cartridges? Thanks in advance

It worked for me and saved me from the headache of carrying the printer to the service center. I don’t know why these instructions are not part of the usage guide that is provided as part of the printer??
Thanks a Ton.
