E5 ERROR ON CANON MP 160 PRINTER

Question

Good evening everyone...

I have a CANON MP 160 printer that was working very well until, unexpectedly after turning it on, it started flashing everywhere, displaying an error E5 (alternately the E and the 5)... The PC tells me that the black cartridge is not recognized, yet it is an original one.. I replaced it with a new one and the same problem occurred! Of course, it just turned one year old in January and so....! ;(
If anyone has any idea what I can do, although with the few buttons there are, I'm not sure if anything is feasible.
The worst part is that having bought a new cartridge and both the ones in place being recent, I'm almost forced to buy another one on which I can put my cartridges...!

I am therefore awaiting your advice,

Thank you in advance,

Best regards,

I also have the same problem: overnight I got an E5 error message popping up and there's no way to fix it. Mine is still under warranty, so I'm going to take it back.

It's a mistake they cannot fix; they don't know the source. As for us, it was still under warranty, so we brought it back to the store where we bought it, and they replaced it with the higher range.

Good evening everyone, I haven't found anything regarding the E5 error but maybe this could be useful to you.

It's in English but for the different reset methods, it should suffice.

Best regards

Hello or good evening, you need to try this: 1-remove the cartridges 2-turn off the printer 3-put the cartridges back in 4-and finally turn it back on. I did that for another brand and it worked.

Pour tous les amis qui ont le même erreur sur leur imprimante (E5), pas de solution, achetez une cartouche couleur d'origine, le fabricant est le roi.

same problem after reloading and seeing the price of the color cartridge I find it disgraceful that we are forced to buy the original
