How can these cartidges work in some printers but not in others? Maybe the older printers accept them rather than the newer printers? I don't want to waste $ nor mess with having to send back.

I don't have a great answer to your question but know that the color one did not work in my printer, so I have to avoid them in the future.

Not sure to be honest, but I know that my printer would not recognize the color, but recognized the black.

I have a Canon iP 2600 and these cartridges work well in this printer. You have to make sure you buy the right cartridges for your particular printer. Don't buy cartridges for any other model. That is all I can tell you about these cartridges. Hope this helps.

Hi Ryan - I use these cartridges with no problem. All I can think of is to figure out how to reset your printer or printer settings (Google how to reset to factory settings)? Worth a try. Best. Josh

My understanding is that all printers are different and require a specific cartridge. The ones that order work fine in my printer...Good luck

I believe they should work well. Amazon is very good about refunds if you find there is any problem. With a previous printer, I did some trouble with the remanufactured cartridges....they had an expiration date and thus the printer would not accept them but that was the only problem. Good Luck.

Hi there. When I bought these, there was a plastic cover over the ink part. You must remove that and peel back the tape and then put in your printer. Hope this helps. These cartridges also ruined a printer of mine I now no longer have. It wasn't as compatible as they said and broke the ink heads on my printer. Ink spilled all inside. Good luck.

Using the cartridges is always interesting. The chips onthe cartridges need to perfectly match the pins in the printer. If you are getting "cartridge not recognized" that may or may not be solved by removing and replacing the cartridge. If you are getting noting, power down the printer, let things reset and then try the new cartridges. I consider these a boon when they work and am not too disappointed when they don't. You might also try cartridges from one of the other packs. I hope this is helpful - and if not, truly sympathetic.

I have experienced that the cartridges are a little too large so they can be hard to secure into the printer, but the cartridges always seem to fit for me. Perhaps you ordered the wrong cartridges for your printer? If that isn't the problem I would tell the vendor what the problem is and ask if they will resend new cartridges.

I have used these on my 435W machines and they worked. If you know someone who deals with printers, you could take the printer there and see if there is any reason for the mismatch. Otherwise, I suppose a refund will be in order... within the time limit.

They do not work on mine! My printer keeps says "Cannot Detect". I think the microchip used on the generic ink cartridges are outdated. Waste of money :(

Neither cartridges 78 or 15 worked in either of my HP printers - they refused to align - got error messages about the cartridge (implication is they are not "genuine". I returned to Amazon and they graciously sent a refund as I purchased 2 ea. My solution was to give up on HP - expensive and old printers - got a Brother work smart mfc-j475dw for $95 loaded with more features than HP including wireless - cartridges cheaper and one for each color.

Anyway will do it as meny time needed to re-re-confirm...the printer not aloow me to do anything untill all looks in order so I think I will have to try using the original new EPSON cartrige I have. What is starnge is that the balck ink cartrige is recognized without problem showing full ink at the menu...again only when it recognize all of them....lets see next and thanks for your assist....I will let you know how work if fix this long problem. If not I will have to use the original EPSON cartriges until resolve this matter...

I used to have the same problem with them, sometimes my printer says "can't recognize this or that color". What I do, is I make sure that my cartridges are full, and I take them out one by one from the printer and shake them up. For some reason, after I shake them, the printer recognize them. It's might be a "texture" problem with the ink, I think they not thick enough like the original Epson ink, so you have to shake them up constantly. I also want to note, that the first prints are going to be messy, you have to print out at least 5 copies before you get a perfect one.

There is a slight chance they are mislabeled, but more than likely Office Max will not print on them because we aren't a well known brand unfortunately. Did they run any through their printers yet? Or did they simply look at it and say it wasn't compatible? Either way, if you want to private message us, I would be glad to work with you to get it resolved- whether it be that we send another package out to you that we verified ARE Laser printer compatible or we get you a refund. So when you get a chance, please message us!

Feedback indicates that these work fine in some Canon printers, but maybe not in others. Has anyone tried these in a Pixma ip4700? Thanks.

No, you can't. The printer won't accept them. That's a deal breaker for me. I just found that out when I installed one.

These cartridges all have small id chips that allow the printer to recognize them. Have you ordered the correct cartridge for your printer? I have used these for years and every one has been recognized by both of my inkjet printers with no problems.
