Print head is not installed. Install Print Head

My printer was working & then just stopped one day. Message says: "Print Head is not installed. Install Print Head." I checked to make sure printer cartridges were not loose, I tried to push the Menu button to do some testing/cleaning & nothing happens, it keeps displaying the same above message. Any suggestions?
