Is there any specific way to run the software ? Please help me out, I am in real urgent need of a solution. Thank you very much in advance.
hello I have canon pixma MP 180 printer , now getting scanner error , I tried MP tool …but as soon as I open that tool …it says read info …but not going further ….is there any other solution to get rid of this problem , please help.
@Ravi Kumar, I think any problem on your printer hardware. MPTool can not fixed your problem because the software only be used to reset the counter(ink counter and ink level) on the printer

Dear Sir or Madam
I have canon pixima mp480 printer. I wonder whether your driver update (fix canon printer now!!!) would solve the problem of low ink level after refilling my cartridge. If it can I am going to register immediately and pay the fees. If it cannot is there any other soft ware that can do the job. Your prompt response is would be highly appreciated.

i have mp180 i was downloaded mptool and install my system its showing read info but not responding after that so how can i reset inklevel any idea pls help me
@arumugam, you must reset manually your printer before using this software. MPTool support for your Canon printer model
i also already download the software but all the ink level showing unknown. i cannot click any button of the software
For arumugam :
For MP180 reset like this (i use this metod for my MP180);
It will see cartridges full, even on unknown cartridges :
1.Disconnect USB and the power cable
2.Hold down Power button
3.Reconnect the power cable (still holding down power button)
4.With the power button still down, press twice the Cancel/Stop red button
5.Release the power button
6.The printer is now in factory mode (wait about 30 seconds until it says Canon idle or just Idle)
7.Press the + button (next to the OK button) until it says Shipping Mode 1, or Shipping Mode 3, depending of model
8.Press the OK Button
9.Now with it displaying Without Cleaning, press OK and then the power button
10.A test page should print (or simulate it if is no ink in cartridge), and wait until finish print; take care to be paper in printer (if not will be forced to remake steps 1-9)
11.Now open cover
12.Disconnect the power again
13.Take both cartridges out like normal
14.Close cover (with cartridges out from printer)
15.Reconnect power cable ((with cartridges still out from printer)
16.Press power button
17.Select language, it will ask to install cartridges
18.Reinstall cartridges and close the cover
After these operations, the printer will show the print cartridges full, like brand new.
This type of reset should be done after every refill (even it will not be necessary, i recommend to do this).
does not work….after 6.
try to press the Cancel/Stop red button at 6.

my printer is canon pixma MX300 im using a refilled ink cartridge. the first time i use it there is no problem but the ink counter still showing ink low. my printer cant scan and print now.
Solution to reset the ink level for Canon MX300…!!!

6. Press the “>” (next to the “OK” button) once.”Shipping Mode 3″
7. Press the “OK” button.
8. Press “OK” again for “Without cleaning”
9. A test page will print..
10. Open the cover, like you are about to change the cartridges.
11. Disconnect the power cable again.
12. Take out both cartridges.
13. Close the cover.
14. Connect the power cable once again.
15. Turn the printer on.
16. Now just put the cartridges back…
It works right for me…

how to reset ink level on mp250
I tried the re-set as suggested by Ovidiu on 20th December 2010, and all went as he describes, but at the end I still have the U140 error reading against the black cartidge. Both cartidges are refilled: the black is a 50 size and the colour a 40. I can’t get the MPtool app to read the printer, so that isn’t any use either. Any more suggestions?
tried reset by ovidiu….worked great for me….so far.
I’ve used the 18 steps for reseting, everything was all right… but to the next day, my canon MP180 it’s non-responding, only the ambar light, and worsening… the 18 steps DOESN´T WORK, i cant start even… Please HELP.. Thanks!
