Your printer works with lexmark 16 or 17 for black and 26 or 27 cartridges for color.
They are simple, without any problems, so if your printer doesnt print at all, they are 2 possible reasons:
- The cartridge you have now are defective, dryed out or with with bad electrical contacts. You should try new ones, better spend a few extra money on original lexmark cartridges so you can be sure it's not problem no.2
- The printer has a problem with the neddle-like contacts where the cartridge electrical circuits lean on, maybe some dirt is ther, you should check that.
If it doesn't work after cleaning the contacts and with ORIGINAL cartridges, it's an other issue, but i can bearly help you from a distance with so few details you give about the problem.
But, considering the very low price of suc a printer, maybe it's cheaper to get a new one.
Rate the solution if it helped you.
Thx!
