Troubleshooting

Printer does not recognize the new cartridge

Ensure the cartridge is correctly seated. Remove and reinsert it. Check that you are using the correct cartridge model (LC121M) for your printer. Restart the printer.

Magenta color is missing or looks faded

Run the printer's cleaning cycle. Check the ink level; if low, replace the cartridge. Ensure the protective tape was fully removed during installation. Print a nozzle check pattern to identify any blockages.

Streaks or lines appear on prints

Perform a head cleaning cycle through your printer's maintenance menu. If the issue persists after multiple cleaning cycles, there may be a clog that requires professional attention or replacement.
