### Frequently Asked Questions

#### Is it possible for me to refill inkjet cartridges?

Yes, in several cases, ij.start.canon ink cartridges can be refilled. If the cartridge has dry ink inside it, however, don't try to refill it because it won't operate.

#### Can a cartridge be refilled multiple times?

The number of times a cartridge can be refilled is determined by how carefully the cartridge is handled between refilling and the inkjet print head. You can recycle your empty cartridges till this goes out. A cartridge can normally be recharged seven times as a rule of thumb.

#### What can I do to make my Canon printer recognize my refilled cartridge?

If a compatible ink cartridge isn't recognized by your ij.start.canon printer, it's possible that the data on the cartridge chip was stamped with an empty status before it was remanufactured. Hold down the stop/cancel button for 5 seconds to skip the 'ink has run out' notification. Your cartridge should now operate.
