Raise up the scanner platen until the brace locks into place and wait until the ink carriage centers it so you can open it. It has to be turned on to do this.The printer scanner has a help page as well. Do not use FORCE when you open and replace the cartridges.Bill

Try this. grasp the sides of the ink cartridge firmly and the press the front top clip on the cartridge till you can pull it straight up. If that doesn't work do the same (pressing front top clip on the cartridge) and jiggle the sides of the cartridge and at the same pulling up gently until it breaks lose. It's also possible to remove the print head but that can be done by squeezing the two clips at the back top of the print head and lifting. I would avoid this unless it's absolutely necessary because you may have to replace the print head once removed. Just be careful and work gently with the information described above. Good luck.

my printer never could either. I was told to turn the printer off, remove the cartridges, add the cartridges back, and turn the printer on. it never helped me.

You can try cleaning the print heads (google the model of your printer along with "cleaning print heads" and you should be able to find instructions") and try a better quality ink. It may or may not work. It did not work for me. I ended up having to replace my printer after using this poor quality ink. Good luck to you!

Ah! So my printer is NOT broken! I initially had no trouble with this ink, but as of a few days ago, my printer malfunctioned, with an error code saying that it could not recognize the black ink cartridge. Now I know it's a problem with the cartridges and not the printer!

When the printer will not let me print due to color ink (yellow) being low - I am able to change my printer preferences to print in GREYSCALE and it works!!

You might want to try putting back in the dead ink cartridge as you can get a few more prints out of it that way. But in the long term, buy a new printer as this one goes through ink like water and will cost you 10x the amount you paid for the printer itself. I threw mine off my third story window and it made a very satisfying crash into the parking lot behind my building.

Try opening the printer settings from the computer. Also try the settings from the printer itself. Maybe try shutting it off and on.

I have used stamping ink and it dries. I have never tried printer ink. Sorry I can't be of more assistance.

Almost certainly your printer has a dirty or clogged print head on one of the cartridges. Use the utilities to assist in diagnosing the problem. Regards, Bill

I had the same issue. I took the ink out, shook it and unplugged the printer and replugged it. Good to go. Hope it works for you.

if your cartridges are refillable, you can refill them with bulk inks. you will need to get a reset chip--you can check at refillbay.com to see if your printer type is listed for use with the chip. very easy to do

There was no fix for me. My printer still does not recognize either cartridge and will not print anything for me.

Another thing you can try, (that has worked for me when ink is so low that printer will not print, yet there's still ink in cartridge), is to place a small piece of duct or masking tape over the clear part of the cartridge. That's where/how the printer itself recognizes ink levels in the cartridges.

Remove the CIS Ink System and then snap it back in. Also on the top right of the Ink cartridge is a small white button. Press the button for about 10 seconds, close the lid and check. You may also try youtube, they have a lot of answers for the CIS Ink System.

You need to print in something other than fast or draft. Standard or High should solve that. I have had this problem with all inks including Canon ink.
