Buy a new printer! Honestly. What likley happened
it that the brown ribbon connector on the back of the frame that
holds all the ink wells has become ripped off or torn from
the green circuit board. This means that there electrical connection is gone, and the printer can't sense the frame
is in place.

This likely happened when you were cleaning it!
It's impossible to repair yourself, you need a new
black frame. And....you can't buy one separately.
You practically need to buy a whole new printer.

Sorry....
