the first part is right.you do have to turn the power on and you DO have to raise the copier lid then the cartridge carrier moves center so you have access.the latch actually loosens the cartridge in question for you - simply pull forward.there is some truth to the readout given however,that said should you want to go with what's left when it asks if new( most do) put dot there carry on as usual. I personally prefer original manufacturers equipment or OEM ..... never had luck with remanufactured cartridges.P.S. I never buy from Lexmark.i get new from ebay but that's just me. not a chance taker. I.e. if I have a large print job I may not opt to trick the machine as it were. the first part is right.you do have to turn the power on and you DO have to raise the copier lid then the cartridge carrier moves center so you have access.the latch actually loosens the cartridge in question for you - simply pull forward.there is some truth to the readout given however,that said should you want to go with what's left when it asks if new( most do) put dot there carry on as usual.

Turn printer on. Raise main lid - not copier lid. Cartridges will move to center. Lift latch over cartridges and insert new cartridges. Lower latch (s) Lower cover, and you're in business. NOTE - If you use 'remanf' cartridges, you will have minor problems. The readout will tell you ink is low - it isn't. Just acknowledge it and go. The colors of Remfg as as good as Lexmark, but you go through the hassle.

It is really very simple. Just lift and unsnap the old ink cartridge and then simply snap in the new cartridge. They are very easy to replace.

Open up the system menu and run the head cleaning utility. If that doesn't fix the problem replace your blue or tricolor ink cartridge.

You can try to reset the machine by having it turned on, opening the cover to expose the ink cartridges, lift the lever on the cartridge holder then remove the ink cartridges, lastly remove the holder the ink cartridges were in then unplug all of the wires while it is turned on. This includes unplugging the power cord. Wait for a moment for the machine to reset itself. Plug the wires back in, put the ink holder back in, put the ink cartridge holder lever down then place the ink back in. Watch for a red light to appear on the ink cartridges as you place them in. If the ink cartridge does not light up the chip on the cartridge is bad and you need another one.

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.

You can purchase more of the cartridges online. You simply pull off the old cartridge and put the new one on just like you did the last one. If you intend to change colors, you should clean the pen first. This can do done by running water through the pen and letting it dry. Sometimes using a syringe can really help get it clean.

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.

No I have not found a way to do that. I just had the same problem and luckily had a new cartridge handy. I get the best service and prices from inkjetsuperstore.com. Also fast delivery. I always order 2 of what I need. So when I put in the second one, I order more so I won't be in a bind. Older printers would let you take out the cartridge and shake it and put it back in but not this one. This printer is not the easiest to operate. It has a mind of its own.

First, remove ink cartridge from printer. Need to pull down plastic lever in front of each cartridge. After removing new cartridge from plastic bag and removing thin plastic tab insert in slot in printer where old cartridge was. Press in until you hear click. Do not put finger on new cartridge where ink is dispensed. If this fails, go to Staples and ask. Also look on YouTube for instructions.
