Recently, I went to print with my lexmark, but the ink came out light (almost unreadable). I opened the lid to see if I could resit the cartridge and fix it. When I opened the carriers, I noticed one carrier lid had a moving piece now. This stopped me from closing the lid (it kept hanging down and not letting it latch). I managed to take a piece of tape, and keep the moving piece in place, to finally close the lid. Tried to print and there was a knocking. Canceled the print cycle, readjusted the tape, and tried again. It worked with no knocking this time, but still barely any ink. Can I replace the ink carriage? Is there another way to repair this without a full ink cartridge replace?

Hi,
Please do the following..
To check the cartridge carrier:
If the power light on the printer is not blinking, the error message may be caused by a communication error. Do the following:
Thank you....
SOURCE: Lexmark x4650 says "print cartridge missing" but just replaced.
CLick on Start, printers and faxes, right click on your printer icon, click on properties.
There should be a tick box to allow you to reset the cartridges to new....

This can either be blocked nozzles on the cartridge, or an alignment problem. Go to Start - All Programs - Lexmark - Solution Center and print out a Clean Nozzle Page and an Alignment Page from the maintenance tab. That should fix the issue.

You can unplug the printer from the power source. With the printer off, open the cover where the cartridge carrier is. Hold the solid white tape found in the middle inside the printer. Slowly drag the cartridge carrier to the center. Replace the cartridges. Close the cover. Plug printer back to the power source. Hope this helps.
Testimonial: "That was too easy. I thought I would break something if I tried to pull it out like that. That a ton."

remove the cartridge and clean all the contact points on it (not the ink spitting part) and reinsrt it. Use a q-tip and rubbing alcohol.
Sometimes the ink
cartridge carrier won't automatically move to its loading position even when
the printer is on and the cover is open. Follow the steps below:
1. Unplug the
printer from the power source.
2. With the cover
open, hold the solid white strip that connects from the carrier assembly to the
ink cartridge carrier and gently slide the cartridge carrier to the center of
the printer.
3. Remove the
used cartridges.
4. Load the new
cartridges. Close the cover.
5. Plug the printer back to the power source.
The Lexmark manual says: Remove the tape from the back and bottom of the color cartridge, insert the cartridge in the right carrier, and then close the color cartridge carrier lid. See pic below...
Hi
Please open the lid which is located on top of the printer. Also see this
picture of Lexmark X4650 Printer showing the open lid and cartridges. Just
remove the cartridges and install new ones
After downloading the
drivers save them and install them. Hope this helps...
