Hi Khalid,Make sure your printer is set as the default printer on your PC.If you were printing many pages,try selecting the current or the page with the text only and try to print it.Check paper size settings,orientation,layout and printable area in your software and make sure they're in line with the paper you're using.If problem not solved,then you may need to clean the printhead to unclog the nozzles so that they enhance smooth flow of ink.

• Connect the printer to the computer and turn it on.
• On the taskbar of your PC,right click on the printers icon.[If there's no icon,go to your printer properties window and then click on the maintainace tab.Select on the head cleaning option].

1. Get a damp paper towel.
2. Set the ink cartridge right side up on the damp paper towel so that the ink nozzles are against the towel and hold the cartridge in this position for about 15 seconds.
3. Now wipe the print head (on the bottom where the ink comes out) across in one direction only (left to right) until it looks clean.
4. Next dab the cartridge on the towel to make sure that the ink is flowing.
5. Snap the cartridges back into the printer.

Good Luck!!!!!

Inkjet printers need to be used frequently to prevent inkdrying out in the print head nozzles.
If the print head cleaning maintenance routine does not clear the blockages,then print head needs replacing, but it may be expensive.
It may be more cost effective to buy a later model and better printer thanreplace the print head.

Lift the scanner up to expose the inside of the printer. Thers a button "stop" top left face of printer, press and release and the print cartridge holder will move, press again and it will stop at the colour that needs replacing, press again (total four times) to show if other cartridges are ok. Press again and the cartridge carrier will return to right of the machine. Lift the lid (grey colour) to show the cartridges, remove and replace the ones that have been shown to be empty.

This may sound silly, but I have done this as well. New ink cartridges are shipped with "covers" that should be removed prior to installation. Please verify that these plastic covers have been removed. This is the most common cause of this problem. The covers look like transparent tape.

Update this with the results of your examination.

Thanks,
