F.A.Q.

We’ve prepared answers to the most common questions about inkjet cartridge problems from our customers. Seek more information about printer cartridge problems solutions?

My printer displays a message about an undetected cartridge. What should I do?

Take out the ink cartridge and check if you removed the plastic tape (the strip is usually yellow). Then restart the printer and install the cartridge again. This usually fixes the problem.

Can I unclog the cartridge manually?

Spot a print head and wipe a crusty or dried ink with a piece of a soft, nonabrasive cloth moistened with water. Avoid touching a copper, silver, or gold nozzle plate (if your cartridge has any, it’s better to use a cotton swab to unclog the print head). After that, put the cartridge back in place and make a test printout.

How to fix a damaged cartridge error?

Power off your printer and then inspect the cartridge holder for damage. If you see slightly bent contact pins, your task is to repair them to provide a secure connection between the holder and cartridge chip. Once you’re done, clean the contacts and proceed to work.

I have trouble removing the cartridge. How to do this without breaking the printer?

Everything is simple – turn on your device and open the cartridge door. When the cartridge stops in place, lightly press it down to release it. Then simply pull the cartridge out from the slot and install a fresh one.
