Refilled cartridges not working!

Refilled cartridges will not reset the ink levels. The printer will still recognize it as empty.

Please be advised that refilled/remanufactured cartridges could damage your printhead and will not be covered under warranty.

Mostly cartridges have a sensor in it. Once cartridge gets empty, the sensor show error. Then even if you refill the cartridge the symptom remains there showing empty cartridge. Try using new cartridges, not refilled cartridges..

If you have refilled the cartridges 28 and 29, it's pretty normal that your printer won't print. Those cartridges are not for refill (they can be refilled, but won't work once the printer says they are empty). If you have refilled a 28A and 29A and it doesn't recognize the one of the cartridges, try removing them and clean the electric contacts with a dry cloth. Put them back in. If that doesn't help, I suggest you buy a new cartridge.

my photosmart will not print....printed three pictures and then stop ...what do I do

Hello!
28 and 29 are not meant to be refilled. They can physically be refilled, but they won't work. That is because Lexmark has put in a smart chip that doesn't allow refill.
You need to buy 28A and 29A or 34 and 35, those cartridges can be refilled with no problem.

If you find my answer helpful, please vote. Thank you!

Because the software inside the cartridge was not reset. They do not have the electronic equiptment to do that.  I believe you woudl have to refill the ink before you got the empty mesasage?

Walgreens had gave me the wrong print cartridges back. They had my info on them but they belong to a HP printer instead of a Lexmark. We took them back and had to go thru a lot to get them straighten out. My cartridges were nowhere to be found so I'm sure the HP customer will be looking for their cartridges also. From now on no more refilled cartridges for me. Lexmark only! Thanks for the help.

First of all lexmark doesnt support refill carts. but what u can do is reseat the carts & then press the options button till u see cart new both. & then select both the blk & clr as new. it should work other wise buy new carts

Hi , use the genuine canon ink cartridge the printer can identified the ink cartridge. and colors.

Sometimes the color bleeds over. Did you wipe down the contacts and clean the heads? Also, most of the cartridges have low ink sensors in the. Even if you have them refilled, they will still show as low ink. The only solution is to buy the new ones.... $$$$$$.
