Make sure that the cartridge is inserted correctly, usually the door will not close unless the cartridge is inserted spot on perfect, do not force the door as you may break it.

Unless your 'new' cartridge has a used chip, it's likely that the pagecount for the Photoconductor/Drum Unit is at the replace stage. The Drum unit has a small waste toner collection container, is this becomes over-full, waste toner 'spews' into the printer with dire effects. This is ONE of the reasons that drum units have a rated pagecount. You can reset the drum counter without actually replacing the drum, but this should be used as a short term measure ONLY, AND AT YOUR OWN RISK. The Photconductor reset procedure is as follows.

RESETTING DRUM PAGE COUNTER

2) Press the cancel button and hold till the leds flash
3) Release cancel button and close toner cartridge door

You surely bought a new monitor. So you would have got a cd with the monitor. insert that cd into the disk drive and install the drivers.

If you don't have the cd then insert the cd you got with your (Motherboard CD)) Hope it helps.

Probably a chip problem.

Its worth taking the cartridge out (with the printer switched on), close front door, wait for 'Insert C cartridge' message, switch off printer, put new cartridge in, close door, switch on - may clear the problem.

I've seen this before with these cartridges, there was a bad batch of chips around.

If still have your old cartridge, swap the chips over, and try your new toner with the old chip (and for completeess, your old toner with the new chip. If the message changes, the chip that was on the new cartridge is faulty. If it doesn't there's something wrong with the cartridge.

Either way, if there's a cartridge problem, it needs a word with the supplier.

You need to make sure all the paper sizes both in the printer setup and the driver are set correctly.

Have you attempted leaving the printer unplugged (if possible in the on position) for a period of 5-10 Minutes?

You can remove the side panels and then remove the cover over the power supply. You'll also have to remove the fuser connections.
