Troubleshooting

Printer not recognizing the new cartridge

Ensure the cartridge is correctly seated and all protective tape/clips have been removed. Try restarting the printer. If the issue persists, check cartridge compatibility for your specific printer model.

Poor print quality (streaks, faded colors)

Run a print head cleaning cycle through your printer's maintenance settings. Ensure the correct paper type is selected in your print settings. Check the page yield; the cartridge may be nearing empty.
