Introduction

The purpose of this guide is to inform you on how to change the ink in a printer, specifically a Canon PIXMA TS3300. The cartridge compartment is located at the from of the printer under the large Canon logo. The controls for the printer itself, the power button and lights, are located on top of the printer. In order to change the ink, you will need Canon fine cartridges. 245 is for black ink and 246 is for colored ink.

Hi if I replace the ink cartridge with a refill the printer has an error message E16 which I know means cartridge is out of ink. How do I override this message to keep printing. I have a Canon TS3360. Jenny.

Jenny -

My Pixma TS3300 printer is giving an error message E14 since I replaced the empty cartridges with new 245XL and 246XL cartridges. These should be compatible but aren't working. Please help!
