It is important for you to post the make of your printer. Anyway, it sounds like your new cartridge is faulty, which is not unusual. First of all, turn your machine off, unplug it, wait a minute, then plug it in and turn it on. If the problem is still there, try another new cartridge. If the problem goes away, get a refund for the one you just replaced.
Error code 5100 indicates that Carriage Return (CR) error occurs. This error rise when carriage unit (the part that function as cartridge housing) does not move properly. Here are some possibilities of the problem:
Carriage unit is faulty so that it cannot 'read' film timing **** strip (film encoder) properly
Film encoder is dirty. Film encoder functions as a guide for carriage unit to move to the correct position it should be. Carriage unit 'read' the encoder by flashing a light from a LED. Dirty encoder sometimes make the light direction is deviated.
Foreign material blocking carriage unit path. Please check inside the printer and remove it if any.
If carriage unit is faulty, you need bring the printer to the service center to get part replacement. For dirty film encoder,sometimes you can still clean it by using moistened cloth. I hope this will HELP you. Thanks.

This indicates that either the black print cartridge is faulty, misplaced or missing. Try inserting a different black cartridge. Also firmly press the large green plunger fully down once, and then release it. The plunger should return to its original position. Then reset the printer and try printing again. If the problem persists try using a new black cartridge and primeit before use with the power on.
Dear all, Error code 5100 indicates CR (carriage return) error occurs. There are 2 possibilities of this case: Film timing **** strip is dirty or carriage part is faulty. Look inside your printer. There is a film, installed in horizontal position. Try to clean this film first;wipe carefully with moistened clothe. If the problem still persist, it seems that carriage is faulty. Regards,
