First, ensure the cartridge is correctly seated and clicked into place. Remove and reinsert it. If the issue persists, turn off the printer, unplug it for a minute, then plug it back in and turn it on before reinserting the cartridge. Gently wipe the copper-colored electrical contacts on the cartridge with a lint-free cloth if they appear smudged, then reinstall.

This often indicates clogged print nozzles or low ink. Check your printer's ink levels. If levels are sufficient, run the printer's built-in print head cleaning utility. You may need to run it a few times for optimal results. Ensure you are using appropriate paper settings for your print job.

Page yield can vary significantly based on the content printed. Pages with heavy text coverage or high-resolution images will use more ink than light text documents. Check your print settings to ensure you are not printing in 'Best' or 'Photo' quality when 'Draft' or 'Normal' would suffice. Also, ensure your printer drivers are up to date.
