Hello ,

First, please make sure there is no error message displayed on the LCD screen of the printer

Now we will check the status of your printer in the printers menu in the control panel.
The printer’s status should be set to “ready”
If the printer is “paused” simply clear the print queue, right click on the printer and select “resume printing”.

If the printer says “offline”, follow these steps.

1. Clear the printer queue
2. Shut down the computer
3. Unplug the USB cable from your computer and your printer
4. Unplug the power cable from the printer and wait 15 seconds
5. Plug the USB cable back into the printer and the computer.
6. Plug the printer’s power cable back in.
7. Turn your computer back on.

Your printer status should be back to ready now and you are able to print.

Thanks,

Pat

Have you only replaced the magenta cartridge, or have you also tried the print head. A bad print head can cause the ink to read as empty or clogged.
