GENERAL PRINTER TROUBLESHOOTING ADVISE ON INK:

Open the printer and remove the ink. Clean around the ink carriage and the under the ink with alcohol and a cotton swab. Pay special attention to areas with copper contacts. Keep in mind too that some printers will not print, even with full ink, if the exact type of ink it expected you to have installed is not right. Double check that the ink is correct against the manual or written instructions inside the printer using the number not the shape. Not every cartridge that fits the printer necessarily works.

The print head indexing is off. Probably slipped on the cog. A factory service might be able to fix it, but it'd probably be less expensive to replace it.

remove all the cartridges. using tissue or cotton cloth.. dub the connectors to the cartridge of the printer.. then wipe the cartridge connector area dry. if this does not work, you need new cartridges. with new cartridges and the same problem persist, your printer has the problem on the in decoder strip. area. hope to be of help.

Hello!
Remove the cartridges and gently wipe the cartridge contacts with a dry cloth, then put them back in. Then, hold the "resume" button for 10 seconds for each cartridge, that should reset them.
If that doesn't work, one of your cartridges (sadly) needs to be replaced.
