I rarely print in color, but someone else in the house (to remain unnamed) has continued to print in color even after being asked not to. The sad part is that I've got three black tanks that I can't use because of the stupid color tanks. I'm thinking about drilling a hole in the tank and filling the color tanks with water, then resetting. If you refill it, it won't work, because the tank "knows how many drops are in it." He did tell me if you hold the button on the printer down for 10-15 seconds, it MIGHT reset the counter. I'm trying to think of workarounds.these cannot be refilled, according to Walgreens and OfficeMax, and the agent at Canon told me it's because there's a "drop counter" in the IC board on the tank. After calling Canon, I found out that the iP3000 and iP3300 are completely different, and I'm now stuck with an opened package of $50 ink cartridges. Went to Sam's, and bought a package of "GENUINE Canon Ink" for the iP3000 family. Took those back, and assumed that it was an OfficeMax brand issue.

I assumed that they would work with the Canon iP3000 FAMILY of printers, as Canon has always done.

So I went to OfficeMax, and purchased their own brand of ink eing the "iP3000" designation on the package. I've tried telling it to "Print Grayscale" in my media settings, but it keeps coming back and telling me it can't print.

I have a beautiful Pixma iP3300 printer that I can't get to print even in black and white because the COLOR tanks are low.
