How do i install refil cartriges without the cartrige showing empty

The cartriges are damage. This is one of the normal problems with refill cartriges.

your newly installed cartrige which is the colored one is not detected or mybe damage....may i ask if how many times did you refill already your cartrige?refilling a cartrige can cause damage to its circuit i suggest purchase a new colored cartrige and see if it works.

I'm not sure about Lexmark but some printer cartridges (Cannon) can't be refilled because the printers still think they are empty. You can buy a little gismo on ebay to reset the cartridges after you refill them. Good luck.

It sounds like whoever refilled the ink cartridges did not reset the counter in the cartridge, so it thinks that it is still empty.

Yes. The printer won't operate without both cartridges installed, even if one is empty.

The ink your purchased is likely a cheap watered down version of what your printer is meant to take. You may notice that the ink smears when you rub the page directly after printing. Why you chose to use the blue and red ink to make black blows my mind. These refill kits are insanely cheap and buying the black could not have been much more. Not using black ink in the black cartridge would explain why your print is faded. Also, there is no way to reset the ink levels on this type of cartridge. As long as the printer still prints, just ignore the ink level indicator and print until the ink runs dry. I recommend Cartridge World for ink refills because they use high quality ink to manufacturer specified volumes while still saving you money.

the older lexmark cartriges have a chip that will not let you refill but the newer ones don't have the chip. also if you wait until the cartrige is totally empty it will not work properly

first, if you refilled your toner, the printer will always tell you, that you are not using original toner and red light will blink. second, if printer tell you every time to replace different color, then you need to clean a chip reader and chips on toners. take out all toners and pc drum. under toner rack there is a chip reader, clean it with pressure air and reinstall
