Low on ink
Solution: Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes
only. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement
cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the
print cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable.
If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has
been used in another product, the ink level indicator may be inaccurate or unavailable.

Cause: The indicated print cartridges were estimated to be low on ink and might
need to be replaced soon.

•
Solution 3: Check if print cartridges are fully inserted
•
Solution 4: Align newly installed print cartridges

Solution 5: Print cartridge might be defective
Solution 1: Incorrect type of paper is loaded in the input tray
Solution: If you have colored paper loaded in the input tray when you align the print
cartridges, the alignment fails. Load unused plain white letter or A4 paper into the
input tray, and then try the alignment again. If the alignment fails again, you might
have a defective print cartridge.

Cause: Incorrect type of paper was loaded in the input tray.

Solution 2: Make sure the protective tape is removed from the print cartridges
Solution: Check each print cartridge. The tape might have been removed from the
copper-colored contacts, but still might cover the ink nozzles. If the tape is still
covering the ink nozzles, carefully remove the tape from the print cartridges. Do not
touch the ink nozzles or the copper-colored contacts.
