PIXMA MP150 => it says E-2-3... Please HELP!!

I have problem with my MP150. The thing is that when I'm pushing POWER button, it starts to make routine movements and sounds, at least they seems to be routine as every time when I was starting it. But the display shows E => 2 => 3 in sequence. Ain't have any idea what's going on. I also tried Canon troublestooting but it turns out that I have to contact with servise and it won't tell me what's wrong with it. Please help..

    I have just had my cartridges refilled, they are still coming up as empty. Now there is an error code 1 then 6 flashing. I have tried all the usual, huge backlog of printing to be done. £16 wasted?

Refilled cartridges
the pixma range need to have the chips reset or refilled before they become empty.

Put in a genuine cartridge and it should work. Buy a set of cartridges with dummy chips that allow the printer to use refilled cartridges.
