SOURCE: epson do not recognizing new cartridges
Just posted this answer somewhere else...you probably touched the little green microchip on the cartridge. The oils in your hand prevent the printer from reading the cartridge. Hope this helps, sucks that you may have to buy a new cartridge though!

Just had this happen to me. Turned it off, turned it back on... nothing. In/out with the cartridge several times and when I blew on the contacts of the printer (where the little microchio on the cartridge touches) it finally worked. Did the blowing on the contacts help? Maybe, but more likely is that the it was just repeatedly trying to d oit before the machine figured it out.

please use only recommended cartridges found either on the upper portion of your printer or in the printer manuals.... take note of the code.

Try this: First check which cartridge(s) are not being recognized. In my case where I replaced all three color cartridges, two were recognized right away but one was not. You find out by sending a print request to the printer and looking at the ink cartridge levels diagram in the dialog window. In my case two of three were fine but one had a red X on it. So I removed it and cleaned the contacts with alcohol then rocked it in the slot after pressing it in. It was recognized and the charging process began as normal.
