This is why you Shouldn't But Cheap Printer Ink (Canon, HP, Epson, Lexmark)

That was pretty depressing for me. We bought it that time at Php15,000 ($350). Its kinda expensive at that time.

Same happened to me. DIY refiilled the cartridge. All of a sudden I can't turn it on.

@iannah2147 I hope people find this video before they make the same mistake we did. I bought a cheap and good printer at Walmart Canon MG5200, it doesn't have a fax function but everything else works well. My other Canon is broken, thanks for the inexpensive printer ink!

I now have the same problem I did all the same cleaning, unplugging and am looking for a printer head. Any solutions yet?

i was feeling so happy to find your video and yet so sad for you and now possibly for me. i got staples name brand and took it back because i mixed a cannon 3e with the cannon inks and my printer was not happy. i took everything back and replace it with the correct ink and my nightmare begins.

wow. i was hoping for a great ending because right now i'm dealing with that dreaded message " wrong cartridge ". ) :

@julieannemichelle This video caputred the last moments of life for my printer :( I will NEVER NEVER NEVER buy cheap printer ink again! ONLY OEM.

EXACTLY same as my experience. 5 years of trouble free use. 3 days after buying aftermarket carts. I get Wrong Cart message. Printer repair guy said nothing can be done - buy a new one.

had similar issue = no answer

@1bobtrade I contacted the company who sent me the bad ink (4inkjets) and after a lot of bs, they ended up sending me $35. It's better than nothing, but their cheap ink broke my Canon Mp780 :( They should have paid for the repair of my old printer.
