- Checked all settings in printers and faxes, cartridges installed properly, nozzles cleaned etc...
Still no color. Also made sure it is not on 'Greyscale' setting
Confirm that the ink tanks are installed properly
When
replacing the ink tanks, confirm that the new ink tanks are installed
properly. If the ink tanks are not locked into place, paper may not be
fed properly, or ink may not be supplied to the print head.
Check that the printer is powered on and open the front cover.
Wait until the print head moves to the center.
Check if the ink tanks are installed properly.
Ink tanks installed correctly
Ink tanks installed incorrectly
When installing the ink tanks, push the top of the ink tank until a click sound is made.
Note: If the ink tanks are not installed properly, paper may not be fed properly, or ink may not be ejected.
Close the front cover.

New CANON PIXMA iP 1500 PHOTO PRINTER COLOR. I took the printer from the box and the printhead and ink cartridge was already installed. Is this common?
