I have the same problem with the Cyan tank. This is very frustrating. I have turned the printer on and off and I can't get it to accept the new cartridge. Please help!
I researched this more online; by searching on error U071 - this turned up many, mant hits. Some suggested that there have been bad batches of the Canon cartridges where the built-in chip has failed. I replaced by cartridge (it was hardly empty) and sure enough, it now works fine. It makes sense then, that the cartridge was indeed faulty. It's certainly worth the 10-15$ to see it if solves the problem. Otherwise, the Canon MP530 has been a solid performer!
Good luck

Thanks for the suggestion ctf1800, but that didn't get rid of my error (more than one cyan tank installed). My Mac gives me error 1681 and the printer lcd says U071-check ink cartridge c. Nothing is working.
