you must get head cleaner from a seller on line. they sell for as cheap as 4.00 after so many prints you will need to flash the chip counter. google wic rest for printers. it cost $10.00 well worth the money. google print head cleaner or look it up on amazon or ebay.

Use foil and touch the two little gold dots (connectors) for all the cartridges and reinstall them in the printer.

I would suggest "cleaning the printeads" after refilling your cartridges and before printing. I'm able to do this directly from my printer, under "tools"

If the printer sits unused for too long, the ink dries inside the print head, and new cartridges don't help. The print head has to be replaced if this happens - I went through 2 print heads before I gave up on this otherwise good printer. PS the print head was over $100 the last time I bought one - more than a new printer with ink - it just wasn't an economical repair. I tried cleaning the old one several times, never got satisfactory printing results.

I wish I could help you. It is not a good printer, I have other problems. I wish I had returned it.

Mine didn't work at first (printed blank pages) but it started working after I cleaned the printer heads.

I think you can keep things working by doing the printer test page now and again. Also, maybe clean heads once in awhile. Just my opinion.

Well it could be a few things. First, Did you run a print alinement or select clean printer heads . Or you may have just ordered the wrong cartridges

You might have it upside down. I usually print two copies to test if it's in the copier drawer correctly before I do a big batch. Hope this helps

I don't see how that is possible as you are only resetting the chips on the cartridge. If the printer is still trying to print but no ink is coming out then you probably have a clogged head. Normally all the colors don't get get clogged at once so you can normally tell by that. Good luck . Any more questions please don't hesitate to ask

Prinr Head is probably clogged, Excess ink pads probably soaked to the max. Theese are not easily repaired by the end user. Taake to a printer repair shop they will soak the print head in solvent and replace the ink pads. usually costs about $40.00

I finally called a copier repair person for this problem. He had a easy, but counterintuitive, solution. Clean the paper feed roller with WD40. He explained why it worked (which I don't remember), but it certainly did work. Wipe off any excess of course.

As much as I would like to help, I'm afraid there is not much advise I can offer. If you have the device on the rear of your printer that permits printing on two sides of the paper, I suggest removing it and looking for any paper stuck in the device or up in the printer itself. Be sure the reversing device is reinstalled ind latched well.There is not much more that I can suggest.Bob

Do a nozzle check on your printer. Run three consecutive cleaning cylces.Change your graphic to a jpg and print in rgb.Google it.Just a couple suggestions.

First make sure there is not a piece of paper jammed. If it looks ok then shut the printer off and unplug it for a minute. Plug it back in and turn it on, should clear it.

cleaned the print head with some clipperside and an air can, you have to un-screw the actual head from the body, two small screws on each side and spray the pathway from the ink tank moun to the head and the head also. then turn off printer and back on do a print head allingment and a nozzel check then mine worked. hope this helps.

If you have put in a new print head and the re-alignment fails, try taking it back out and then reseating it. This worked for me. I must not have gotten it in right the first time.

Have you ever printed on that printer off of your computer. If not what where you printing from before. It maybe that your print settings are not complete for printing from your computer. Check your settings and if they are correct check your cables. If all this proves to be functioning correctly and in order but still not working, just buy another printer because the problem is deeper than you can fix and the repair will cost more than a new printer.
