Hi,

Your printer is printing alignment pages, because the cartridge alignment was not completed since you replaced them. Follow the below steps to complete alignment.

1. Turn the printer OFF and then turn back ON.
2. Wait until the alignment sheet prints out fully.
3. Place the alignment test page over the scanner glass.
4. Press start color scan button.
5. The printer "power" light will start flashing, indication the alignment process.
6. After the printer stops flashing, turn off and then ON the printer.It will not print any test pages further.

We need to run alignment test every-time while we replace ink cartridges.

The green light snable, no flashes.But test-print page is empty. All cartridges are full. Print head was reinstalled.

The test page printing out every time it gets turned on is the printer's way of telling you it wants to be calibrated. Lay the test page on the scanner (follow the pictures on the test page) and scan it in. This should fix that problem and the "occasionally after waiting, something prints" problem.

Unfortunately, I don't have an answer to the "E" on the display or check printer cartridge light. Hope this helps!

A few things could be happening here.

1. Clear the print queue, and if there are jobs that won't delete, reboot the computer.
2. Now clear the jobs on the printer (cancel job button) until the status light turns green.
3. Put a piece of paper in the manual feed tray on the front.
4. Print a test page.
If the test page prints to the paper in the manual feed tray, then it is set as the default tray. Go into the printer settings and change it to "auto" or tray 1. If the test page prints to tray 1, but the original document you tried to print (when it got stuck) still won't print, cancel the job. Now, again, put paper in the manual feed tray. Try to print the document again and if it pulls from there, go into page setup of your document and change the setting from "manual" to "auto" or tray 1. Clear the job again (if it's stuck) and you should be able to print again. Hope this helps. This is one of the most common solutions - it happens a lot, especially with documents that are emailed from other people and once they get stuck in the queue, nothing will print (except the test pages directly from the printer, like you describe).

Same problem red light flashing and a picture of a little box with an arrow pointing right in the screen??? what the hell does that mean?
