If you just replaced the cartridge, it could be any of the following reasons:


* It was put in incorrectly. Take it out and try re-seating it in for a better fit. It should snap in easily.


* The cartridge is not compatible. Make sure it's the right cartridge for your printer.


* The cartridge itself is bad or damaged. Try inserting another cartridge, and if that one works, then you know the first one was bad.


* If trying multiple correct cartridges still don't work, the printer might be damage, either the seat where the cartridge goes or the housing where it sits when it rests.
