Connect your Canon printer with Homey and use the ink levels in your Flows.
If it doesn’t work with your model, please let me know so that I can add support for it. The app was tested on TS5050 and iX6850, but it works on more models.
Cool
unfortunally does not work with MG3600 series
Can you share a screenshot of the web interface? The web interface can be found at http://[your printer ip address]/. You can find the IP address on your printer’s display or with an app like Fing.
Also, does the printer even have a web interface? I couldn’t find anything about it online. Can you create a diagnostics report right after attempting to add the printer?
Your printer has a combined color cartridge instead of separate for each color. Can you share the contents of this file? http://[your printer ip]/JS_MDL/model.js

According to that information, both ink cartridges are empty, right? I can’t see from this information which cartridge is for color and for black. When you replace them, can you only replace 1 of the cartridges and then get the information from the http://[your printer ip]/JS_MDL/model.js file again? Also note down which ink cartridge you replaced.
Not to my knowledge, I have no idea how Home Assistant gets the ink values (does it use the Canon Cloud Printing Center to get the ink levels?). Does the Canon PRINT mobile app show the ink levels?
I can’t find in the Android Canon PRINT mobile app any ink levels.
Home Assistant does not seem to have an app for Canon printers. Below are the technical settings of Home Assistant Internet Printing Protocol app. Does that make any sense?:

The result of http://192.168.178.38/mainmenu.html (192.168.178.38 = Canon ip address) is below. Would that help?
Wait, does that page actually exist on those printers as well? Can you share the page source: view-source:http://192.168.178.38/mainmenu.html

Using F12 on http://192.168.178.38/mainmenu.html shows this (color and level (see red arrows)):
Okay I will add support for it now. I think we can extract those values with regex.
