Open the printer and remove the cartridges and reinsert one at a time carefully. That should take care of it.
This can also happen if any of the covers are not perfectly in place or if there is a small sliver of paper or even dust being sensed by the printer. Open the covers and look for paper parts, slivers or dust and clean out if you find it. Then carefully make sure each cover is closed. Sometimes if you slam them shut the cover can distort enough to not close properly and is being detected as open. You also want to remove the paper trays and check there for jams and make sure the paper feeds correctly.
