Hello. The cartridges may not be seated properly in the carrier or just needs cleaning. Remove the cartridges from the printer. Unplug printer from the power source. Grab a damp paper towel and place it on the table. Set the cartridge on the towel with the nozzles facing down and make about 2-3 lines just to clean the nozzles. Do the same thing to the other cartridge. Plug printer back to power source. when it's ready, load the cartridges back in and let it print the alignment page again. After printing, check if you still have the problem. Hope this helps.

There could be something blocking the paper path. Unload the sheets of paper from the feeder. Grab a flashlight and look into the feeder for any foreign objects that might have accidentally fallen into it.
Also, try to check the cartridge area for any obstructions. Open the printer cover and make sure the paper path and the cartridge carrier path are clear from debris or foreign objects.

Try to remove the sheets of paper from the feeder. Grab a flashlight and look into the feeder for any foreign objects that might have accidentally fell into it. If feeder is clear, open the printer cover and remove the cartridges. While the printer cover is open, check inside for any obstructions in the paper path. If none, then close the printer cover. Unplug and re-plug the printer into the power source to reset it. When the printer turns on, reinsert the cartridges. Close the cover. Load some paper (avoid overloading). Try to print again.
If problem continues, please contact Lexmark Technical Support Center for additional assistance.

To fix the carrier jam, open the printer cover. Remove the cartridges from the carrier. While the cover is open, check inside for any loose transparent strip - the encoder strip. The encoder strip ensures the proper mechanism of the carrier on the assembly. If everything looks fine inside the printer, close the cover. Unplug and re-plug the printer into the power source to reset it. When the printer turns on, re-insert the cartridges and make sure they are properly inserted and secured in the carrier.

Note that a refilled cartridge will not be able to report its ink level. Check if correct ink level is displayed on your printer operator panel. Press Setup button > Maintenance > Ink Level - check your black and color ink levels. If ink levels are correct, then the problem could be on your computer.

When you save the image in the 'Save Image' dialog is there a pull down list that says 'Save as file type'? Located just below where you enter the file name. If there is pull it down and select jpg as the file type.

These new printers register and memorize ink cartridges so that they cannot be refilled the only way to refill them is to never let then run to zero percent once they reach zero the printer prevents them from operating if you do catch them before they rundow they will still run down to nothing but will continue to operate as long as you donot let them run out of ink.

Thumbs Up if Helpful also feedback is appreciated!!!

Lay the picture to be scanned face-down on the glass. Square up the photo using the guides that are usually located along the edges of the scanning bed.

Click the scan button on your computer's scanning software window. Some all-in-one printers need you to press the scan button on the printer itself; check the manual before using.

Get a preview of the scanned image up on your computer monitor. This might happen automatically depending on your software settings; if not, you will have to prompt your computer to display one.
