Canon Pixma iP 4600 inkjet printer altering ink cartridge

Modifying the ink cartridge of my Canon printer. As you can see the lights blink when the ink runs out. The light also blinks gradually if the ink is very low. These are compatible ink cartridge which I bought in a package of 12 simply because every cartridge can get high-priced particularly with five ink cartridges…

@Slurfs Well I use compatible cartridges so it is cheaper. Yes it would be nice if they had bigger cartridges. I print occasionally 4×6 photo prints for my mom. There is continuous ink I’ve seen though those void warranty. I think all inkjet printers have a ink absorbers that may need to be serviced sometime in the lifetime of the printer. Good luck finding a better alternative. I like Canon. It’s middle of the line in price for ink with great quality prints.
@AkoyPinoy2 My cannon printer works well too but it consumes serious amounts of ink and also will not work (without a service) since the wastepad is full. So even if the printer delivers excellent pictures and text documents it is still a no go since the ink usage is frankly something you can just laugh at. Canons driver and tools are ok and canon usually makes excellent products but ink printers… no way – the ink cartridges should have been at lest 4x larger (each and every one of them).
@Slurfs It has worked well for me. I’ve had all three common brands, Epson and HP, before though the time between them is a long time. Replaced when broken. Each printer from each manufacturer have their own problems. This printer has given me less problems than others. I print a few. I print more for others really. I like that that it is not an all in one. So replacing it is easier. I do have a scanner by Canon that I use. The newer models finally have CD printing capability for US customers.
The Canon Pixma IP4600 is a horrible printer. The print quality is fantastic but for each and every poweron it consumes A LOT of ink. also when replacing ONE cartridge it also consumes A LOT of ink. I don’t print much and now after printing about 100-200 pages (during a 2 year period) and after replacing ink cartridges about 4 times the ink absorber is full already. Replacing it costs more than purchasing a new printer. I’m NOT going to buy canon again. At least not without doing proper research
@Ravioli2009 Nothing is really easy or hard, but you either know it or you don’t.
thank you, i totally forgot the top opened thats probably why i couldn’t figure it out lol
