Hi
This is a purge unit error hence you need to check and make sure the purge unit is working fine. If not you need to clean it.
THE PURGE UNIT IS THE ONE ON THE RIGHT SIDE WHERE THE CARTREIDGE RESTS WHEN YOU TURN OFF THE PRINTER.
And at the same keep the below mentioned error list for your future use.

I believe this error occurs when the ink cartridges aren't seated correctly. They should be sitting horizontal and not slanted.
