The Resume light flashes when a print cartridge is low on ink, improperly installed, or
malfunctioning.

Print cartridge problems .
"Printing in ink-backup mode"
When the printer detects that only one print cartridge is installed, ink-backup mode is
initiated. This printing mode lets you print with a single print cartridge, but it slows the
printer and affects the quality of printouts.
If you receive the ink-backup mode message and two print cartridges are installed in
the printer, verify that the protective piece of plastic tape has been removed from each
print cartridge. When plastic tape covers the print cartridge contacts, the printer
cannot detect that the print cartridge is installed.
