    It could be that the cartridges are not inserted properly in the carrier or just needs cleaning. Try to remove both cartridges from the printer and manually clean the nozzles. You may refer to this article on How to Clean the Print Cartridge Nozzles and Contacts Manually. Then reinsert one cartridge first and close the cover. If no error appears, reinsert the other cartridge. Replace whichever cartridge is causing the error. You can also try the Clean Cartridge function on the printer by pressing the Setup button -> Maintenance -> Clean Cartridges. It will then print the clean nozzles test page. If error continues, replace the faulty cartridge.

    Hello ,

    Start by opening your ink cover and read the LCD screen; this will alert you as to which ink cartridge is not being recognized; make sure the cartridge that it is telling you is empty has been changed.

    If the unit is still not recognizing the cartridge you have changed, follow the steps below.

    1. Unplug the power cord for the printer unit.
    2. Open the ink cartridge cover and remove all ink cartridges.
    3. Close the ink cartridge cover.
    4. Plug the power cord back in.
    5. Reinstall the ink cartridges.

    Thank you,

    Pat

    Printer says ink cartridge not recognized.
    Take the black ink cartridge back to the person who refilled it. The Microchip that's on the cartridge was not reset properly that's why the printer is returning that error.

    You can try some steps before you take it to them to verify it.
    1: reseat (take out and put back in) the cartridges into place
    2: buy another black cartridge just to check if it will be recognized by the printer, if it does recognize it we know the cartridge is defective. If a new cartridge is also not recognize, start to check your warranty option with the manufacturer...
