Clean the contacts on the cartidge and printer ( open the replace ink door wait for the printhead to come to center and turn off power) if that does not work then replace cartridge, it might be a recycled one that they did not chane the chip.

hi..try these steps
1. clean the cartridge contacts in the printer..
2.unplug power adaptor(black box) from the bac of printer,,press and hold stop/clear button..plug the adaptor back in...display says clearing NVRAM,,,,after this printer would turn off and turn on automatically..reenter the intial set up details like language,country....
3.insert black cartridge...still same msg..printer is defective...call techsupport..your printer would be replaced if in warranty.

Hi Try These Solutions:

its quite simple really just turn off your printer then unplug it remove both cartridge's get like a wet baby wipe or something similar let them sit on it for @ 10 secs then just real easy wipe the front piece as well take the same wipe and wipe the heads in the printer well sort of dab them dont wipe let dry for @ 10 secs put them back in (note you will need to move your cartridges over to where load position by hand to and back) run a cleaning test then align test , then print a test page and wah lah works on every one i ever had to do . sort of fix the things u know. have fun hope this eases your day or better. merry christmas to all and to all good night in essence what has occured is the cartridge got shorted and has dried at the surface as well. try it any other tips you need well ask but not to many thats why i quit giving tips like 15000 email a week blow your mind apart

Well, I did all that but no dice. But then I noticed that the "protective" tape on the new cartridge had left sticky junk on the cartridge -- but NOT on the print heads, just on a regular part. I got rid of the sticky stuff and voila!
