My printer was working fine until it ran out of black ink - I ordered more & replaced it, but the printer never printed again. It acts like it is printing but no ink comes out. I saw somewhere to uninstall it & reinstall - which I did, as well as remove & replace the ink cartridges several times & no printing.
It reads Left Ink Cartridge incorrect but nothing that I do seems to fix that or make it recognize the full new cartridge properly.
I REALLY don't want to get a new printer - it was fine last week...
*The ink in the new cartridge is not dry I have checked several times*
PLEASE HELP!
Almost same deal...after replacing my COLOR ink cartridge, the black ink cartridge is half full but no black ink will print. I'm tired of cutting and pasting everything into a Word document and changing the color! There is no seal on the cartridge, have removed and replaced numerous times, unplugged and replugged, etc.Almost same deal...after replacing my COLOR ink cartridge, the black ink cartridge is half full but no black ink will print.

I have this exact same problem, but when I replaced the black ink cartridge it worked for 3 days. Now it isn't recognized. The printer icon has a big question-mark over the black ink cartridge. Replacing it with another cartridge does nothing.
My solution. Throw out the darn thing and buy a laser jet. Paying for ink is too expensive anyway.

Tip: The max point reward for answering a question is 15.
Did you use a brandname ink cartridge - or is it a knock-off brand? If it is a brand name - then the cartridge is most likely defective. If it is a knock-off brand - some printers do not recognize the electronic in the cartridge and therefore don't see it as one being installed.
Perhaps the printer does not recognize that a mono/black cartridge is installed. Remove the mono cartridge and check to see that tape is removed then re-seat firmly. Unplug the printer from wall power to reset. Then try again.
I just installed a new black ink cartridge and it won't print. My new color one will. It worked fine until it ran out of ink and I replaced it with a new one.
To get rid of the low ink warnings google the specific error message with 'ink refill' and look for 'engineers reset' or similar ..
NB. Dell printers (re-badged Lexmarks) are notorious for ink usage and
high costs .. so my best recommendation would be to throw it away and
purchase something else ..
The printer does not feed paper from the tray and then states that there is a paper jam. I have removed all paper and there isn't a paper jam. It will feed paper through the lower roller and straight into the printed paper tray, but will not feed a new sheet.
Same problem.
