Troubleshooting
Printer not recognizing the new ink cartridge
Ensure the cartridge is correctly seated and has clicked into place. Remove and reinsert the cartridge. Check for any protective seals that may have been missed. Refer to your printer's manual for specific installation guidance.
Yellow color is faded or missing
Run a print head cleaning cycle through your printer's maintenance settings. If the issue persists after multiple cleaning cycles, the cartridge may be nearing depletion or there might be a blockage. Ensure the correct cartridge model is installed.
Ink smudging on prints
Allow prints to dry fully before handling. Ensure the correct paper type is selected in your printer settings. Perform a print head alignment if available in your printer's utility software.
