Canon Pixma Error help please?

Question

Hi, My Canon Pixmas MP110 is showing error message "CHECK PRINTER (5200)" and red "Alarm" light is blinking. It also showed low black ink which I have just replaced with a refilled cartridge but it is still showing the error. I tried disconnecting power cable and reconnecting but did not help.

Normally when I change the cartridge it comes up with a message saying something like, "Did you change black ink? Yes/No?", but it has not done it this time.

How do I fix this?

Thanks so much :-)

It seemed to help the person who asked the question.

The correct procedure for MP110 is as follows:

1) Enter SERVICE MODE By pressing Menu-Scan-Copy-Scan
2) Enter NVRAM by presing <--- or ---> then OK
3) Enter CMY ink level by pressing <--- or ---> then OK
4) Select 1 by presing <--- or ---> then OK
5) Enter K ink level by presing ---> then OK
6) select 1 by presing <--- or ---> then OK
7) Press reset ( design: // )
That's all.

You can even see how much pages you printerd and scaned by pressing <--- or ---> in the Service menu and selecting COUNTER ACCESS!!!!
