Clear Canon "Check Ink" U051, U052, U053, U059, 1401, 1687 and 1485 Error Messages 

Read our article on this error here: bit.ly/1d0OEmQ
The U051, U052, U053, U059, 1401, 1687 and 1485 error codes indicate that your printer is having trouble recognising one or more of the installed cartridges. Canon's official causes for these codes are "The FINE cartridge is not installed", "The FINE cartridge is not installed properly" or "Appropriate FINE cartridge is not installed".
In this video I give you some quick troubleshooting trips to hopefully get your Canon printer to recognise the cartridge. I hope this helps for you.
The U051, U052, U053 or U059 error codes appear on a wide variety of Canon inkjet printers that take the Canon PG-37, CL-38, PG-40, CL-41, PG-50 and CL51 ink cartridges. These printers include the Canon Fax JX200, MultiPass 450, MultiPass MP150, MultiPass MP160, MultiPass MP170, Pixma iP1200, Pixma iP1300, Pixma iP1600, Pixma iP1700, Pixma iP1800, Pixma iP1900, Pixma iP2200, Pixma iP2400, Pixma iP2500, Pixma iP2600, Pixma MP140, Pixma MP150, Pixma MP160, Pixma MP170, Pixma MP180, Pixma MP190, Pixma MP210, Pixma MP220, Pixma MP450, Pixma MP460, Pixma MP470, Pixma MX300 and Pixma MX310. Which of these six possible cartridges your printer takes will depend entirely upon the model of your printer.
