If you mean the ink and the paper lights are flashing at different times (ie: paper on, ink off... then paper off, ink on) then your printer is telling you it needs a service.
Rather than reinvent the wheel, here's an article on the whole thing: http://www.wasteink.co.uk/service-required/
You can find more information on your particular printer here too: http://www.continuousink.info/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4100

New Printer. has been printing fine until a few days ago. tried to print some photos and the printer would not print them. went into print queue and there was nothing there. turned computer & printer off. came back next day, turned everything on and all of a sudden the photo's printed out as well as some receipts from processing of some payments. have printed more photo's and everything ok. turned computer on several days later to print more photos and they would not print, same as before, nothing in print queue. came back next day, turned everything on but nothing has printed.
