cannon pixma mp630

Hi guys i,ve bought a cannon pixma mp630 and just ran out of ink for the 1st time,
i,ve bought some what i now know is non chipped ink cartridges and they dont work so i emailed the seller and got this email back. (see below)

this item is unchipped, you need
transfer your cartridge chip to new cartridges,
and disable ink counter.

i have no ideal how to do this or to disable the ink counter but i have found the chips on the old cartridge and taken one off,
i put the chip onto the new caridge but it just falls off now am stuck as what to do next

do you have to glue them on or is there a diff way of doing this??

never done refilling before is it easy for a begginer and how would i go about doing it please

really gratfull for any help if you can please

Ok, can you tell us what non-chipped cartridges you got? where you got them? So that we can see if there are instructions for switching the chip over. Most come with the instructions to do that, yours did not?

Here is info and a video for changing the chip over, if your cartridges do not have a chip holder built in as on the cartridges shown in the video, a small dab of hot glue will do.

my cartridges do have the chip holder built in but when i put the chip in it keeps falling off should i glue it then?? if i glue it will i be able to reuse the chip again?..hot glue..is that super glue?

thanks for helping

 

[tigerwan]

Not Super glue, you'd never get them off again. The glue I am referring to is a glue stick, that gets heated/melted through using a hot glue gun, it hardens quickly, but you will be able to remove the chip for future uses. Also, I don't know where you are located, but there are chipped versions of the compatible cartridges available now, so you don't have to re-use the originals.

thanks for your help tigerwan i,am in the uk/england i,ve now got the chips glued to the cartridges but it wont print black it says its out of ink, i,ve been told to disable the status of ink by pressing the paper feed button for 3 secs but not so sure which is the paper feed button, you wouldent know which button it is would you??

thanks again

not 3 seconds: 5 seconds or longer. The paper feed button is the othe button (one is the power button).

 

[lowrider69]

thanks pharmacist
still bit unsure which is the paper feed button though so have taken a pic can anyone tell me which button it is please,
do i press the paper feed button for 5 secs or more as i print or when i put the printer on do i have to press it for every print i do??

thanks
