Pixma mx 452 low ink warning after cartridge change

Are you using a reconditioned cartridge?

If so use a real Canon cartridge

bad cartridges or you set it not to remind you of ink running low
If so maybe try to remove the head and let it cap.
Unplug it for 30 minutes and re-install head etc.

I have the exact same issue with my Canon Pixma MG3650 Series, It will not print a straight line at all its doing zig-zags all the way down the paper it's crazy I recommend you print this picture below to make sure that your printer is not faulty
If it prints it Wonky or anything I recommend you open your cartridge tray & use a tissue to wipe off excess ink.

Try wiping each ink cartridge with a damp cloth at the ink dispensing holes

In short, yes. The way printers often track ink levels is by counting the number of pages printed so you have to reset this when you put in a new cartridge. As canon uses a number of cartridges be sure to do this only for the one replaced. You will get more functionality when this is done via the computer software for printing but as you don't say which O/S you are using I cannot give details.

Hi there,

The low ink cartridge warning is nothing to worry about. If it prints, it prints. Most modern printer cartridges have a chip on it which lets the printer know when the ink is low. When you run low on ink, it sends a message to the printer which sends a message to the computer telling you to refill the ink. The problem is that it doesn't go away once you refill the ink. It still prints, you just get a notification whenever you want to print. You can still use it up until that new cartridge runs out of ink. :)

try:

• Certain colors are missing or no ink prints on the paper
• Black ink does not print
• How do I perform a print head cleaning?
• Error Number 91: The following ink cartridge will be used for the specified printing.
• How do I check the amount of ink I have remaining?
• How do I display the remaining ink level indicator?
• How do I install the ink cartridge(s)?
• What is the ink cartridge capacity?
• How do I print a Self Test / Nozzle Test?
• ChromaLife100 System Compliant Inks
• How do I change the Ink Cartridge Setting on the printer driver?
• How do I confirm the ink cartridges are installed properly?
• How do I replace the ink cartridge(s)?

Firstly I suspect you are not using genuine cartridge or you have refilled the cartridge.
To fix this you need to disable the ink checking procedure.

Do you know that low ink or ink has run out message appears once cartridge empty. If you want to use refill ink in that cartridge then you need to deactivate ink level to get your printer run as usual. Check the following tips to fix low ink error message in case of refill ink usage. Below some methods to deactivate ink level detection function for some models due to its similarity.

I have found using 3 r d party inks in Canon printers will mess them up fast but the ones with the contacts don't work period
