I have used this all-in-one for many years and fixed other problems. Refilled black cartridge, and replaced. "Put in Cartridge" warning flashes and will not clear no matter what. I have replaced present cartridge with other black and then colour cartridge. One is new but warning light remains. Have gently cleaned contact points to no avail. Could there be a wiring problem? Or any suggestions??? Thanks in advance. Don
Don, have you unplugged the printer for a few minutes? first the power plug, see if that clears it. If not, unplug it from the computer, reboot the computer, then plug printer back in. If not that,when an ink cartridge is refilled (depending on the model) the printer needs to be tricked into thinking a "new" cartidge is being installed. They make their money from the ink, not as much the printer. You may need to check the owners manual to see if the is the case. I have had to use tape to block off certain contacts, then remove the cartidge and block off another section of contacts, then remove tape all together and re-insert the cartridge.
