Read the following steps to fix the Epson printer won't recognize ink cartridge

There could be several reasons for that as you have not given the details if there is any error message or not?what is the os?when exactly it happened?

Check the followings:-

1. Please check the cable of the printer if it is connected properly with computer?
2. Check cartridges?
3. Check the region code if you have purchased the printer from any other country and if you want to change the cartridge while you are using it in a different country. Example:- customer had purchased the printer in Germany and while using the printer in US tried to change the cartridge and printer stopped working with out any error message or any flashing light.simply changing the region code it works fine.
   

try to reinstall your printer and if the error message show up again try to check your printer to the HP customer care mybe the problem from your board printer

Open the printer cover and check to make sure only one Yellow cartridge is installed. If so, try the following:
Remove each of the other cartridges, one at a time as necessary and see if the error message changes. Start by lifting the cover, then wait for the printhead to move to the left so you can access the cartridges inside. Pull out one of the other cartridges ( not Y) by pushing its front tab back then close the cover. Check the display, repeat as necessary. The error should have changed to U043 (bad or missing cartridge) once you remove the bad cartridge. When you replace it, the printer should work. My guess is the Magenta or Cyan cartridge is causing your error.

Try resetting the printer to factory defauts. Hold down the # and 6 buttons. Pull out the power cable while holding these buttons down. Keep your fingers on these buttons and put back the power cable. It should now show (full/partial reset). Follow the prompts and setup all your original features. If this fails then you might have a hardware problem.(Carriage assembly or Cartridge Holder)



GOOD LUCK

Problem The following error message appears on the LCD panel on top of the printer after you insert a cartridge: Press enter to align cartridges . You press Enter , but the error message does not go away. The printer will not print. Solution To bypass the cartridge alignment, do the following:

1. Press and hold the Setup button.
2. Press the Options button. The printer should be ready to print.

If the print quality is unacceptable after bypassing alignment, follow the steps below until the error is corrected. Step 1 - Check the paper Make sure the printer is loaded with clean, unused, white paper. If the paper is not feeding properly, check the paper path. For information about how to do that, see the instructions under "If the paper does not feed correctly" at the end of this document. Step 2 - Remove and inspect the cartridges
NOTE: The "problem" cartridge is the cartridge indicated by the error message.

1. Turn on the unit, then open the print carriage access door. The print carriage moves to the center of the unit.
2. Press down lightly on the top of the ink cartridge latch and pull the lower section of the latch out to release the cartridge. Figure 1: Removing the cartridge

This happens if you refilled the cartridges, and forgot to take out the air..

Follow this steps..
1. Switch on the printer, open cartridge bay, remove cartridge, dont close the cartridge holder flaps, directly unplug the power supply from the printer end.

2. take a soft cotton, lint free cloth, slightly swab it with pure water, wring the cloth so any excess water is removed, and clean the contact pins inside the printer cartridge holder..

3. clean the cartridge head by keeping it in hot water (about 50C) and then wiping it clean, keep it upright for a few min, and when both printer and cartridge is completly dry put it back in, voila it should not display the message now...

I had the same problem and found that one of the toner cartridges must have not been seated properly. I removed the black toner cartridge and re-fitted it. The printer now works fine again with no errors. 17H is a code relating to a fault in the rotation ......... possibly one or more toner cartridges need checking. Use the menu on the printer to turn it to the appropriate position (i.e. engine menu then select replacement of whichever toner you are checking).
Hope this fixes your as well.
