Won't print. Green Light Flashes.

I'm not familiar with Zebra, but usually the flashing is a warning indication that the cartridge needs replacing, or that the cartridge is not one made by the manufacturer. Check with Zebra if their cartridges contain a chip which detects a 3td party product.

try reinstalling the printer driver again

The Print Cartridge Status light flashes when one or both of the print cartridges is improperly installed or malfunctioning.

1. Open the printer's top cover.
2. Remove and re insert both the black and colour print cartridges and try printing again.

If the problem persists then you need to replace either the black or the colour print cartridge.

Green and yellow is a service error, but it flashes a longer green, and then the green yellow flashes, and a longer green again. You need to count the number of yellow-greens in between the longer green flashes, to know the error code.

You need to count the number of flashes, usually long green then a certain number of flashes, sometimes alternating red and green flashes. I need to know the number of flashes to tell you what the error is.

I believe that 7 amber flashes refer to a cartridge error. Check that the cartridge is seated correctly.

Normally these machine will report an error in the form of a flash code. Green then a number of orange flashed then pause and repeat. Count the number of orange flashes, then go on line to google (or whatever your preferred search engine) and type
canon x orange error code (where x is the number of orange flashes). This should tell you WHAT the problem is and from there you should be able to fix it. I suspect you have a foreign object error in which case have a look at each end of the carriage path for a piece of paper. It is also likely that given the age of your machine that you will have a 5 flash code meaning the printhead has died, in which case it's time for a new machine.

The green light snable, no flashes.But test-print page is empty. All cartridges are full. Print head was reinstalled.
