As long as the cartridge operates OK, do not be concerned with the ink levels. It may just be a problem with that one ink cartridge and at some point, it will run out and then replace it. Cartridges made by foreign sources may not even show the ink levels, and that is not a problem when using them. Printer manufactures try to make it ******* customers as they want you to pay more for their cartridges.

Hi,
If the printhead is printing but is not moving across the page then a single block of print will be produced across the whole page. When this happens the problems include the printhead positioning motor, the timing belt, the home position sensor, the control board or the power supply.
With the power off manually move the printhead to the center of the printer. Turn the printer on to see if the printhead seeks the home position at the far end of the printer. If the printhead moves to the end of the printer and doesn't shut off or doesnt return to the center of the printer then the home positioning is malfunctioning and should be replaced. If the printhead moves on startup but doesn't on printing then the control board should be replaced. If the printhead doesnt move any time check to see if the printer is in maintenance mode. In this mode the printer keeps the printhead assembly in the home position. I f no mode problems are present the positioning motor should be replaced.
Goodluck

Hello Jasonsj10, You can get the support you need from Lexmark directly here: Make Your Selection I hope this helps!

Have you tried right clicking on the device, selecting uninstall, and rebooting the computer? This will force Windows to reinstall the driver and often times will solve issues such as this.

Details please: you've posted your question in a general thread, not in comments.

when you buy cartridges , get the ones marked as xl That indicates that the have 50% more ink than the standard fill cartridges for example cartridge 61 is 1/2 full but 61XL is nearly full
