I believe what you are seeing is "WASTE INK TANK FULL"? This means that the tank that collects the waste ink from cleaning the head is full.
You can read more than you ever want to know on this subject on the following link:
http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/forums/...These are the steps to clear the message by reseting the counter:
1)Printer on, press Additional Functions, Scan, Copy, Scan
Now you should be in service mode from there for waste ink tank reset
2)Select Test mode which is like the last available selection
3)Select #8 Printer Test, it will do something here like cleaning or something then it will come up with some other options this is where it gets a bit confusing cause now all it says is like 8-2 or 8-3 push the + or - button until it says 8-3 then hit the select button
The menu will now say EEPROM Clear
Select Ink count which is option (0) and press set
Your done!

- Thank you for your kind feedback, good luck with the school!
Given my experience with these printers and all the problems I have seen you may want to consider looking for a replacement now. Sorry to be negative but these are not the greatest printers ever made!!
