Dell Photo AIO Printer 924 - Printer Busy

I installed the software and printed out 2 pages just fine on my new Dell AIO 924 printer today. But now whenever I try to print something I get a message that says,
Printer Busy
The Dell Photo AIO Printer 924 is currently busy. Your print request will begin as soon as current processing is complete.
If your device does not appear to be busy, check for a message on your front control panel.

When I click "continue printing", I see the little menu that shows a percentage of my print job completed. Now there's a small message in red saying my ink is very low, is that the problem?
The funny thing is, the bar moves to 100%, then the menu dissapears, and that's it.

if low ink were the problem, why would I also get this "printer busy" message?

I'm confused!

Dell 924 printer won't work on vista OS

First, here is a link to the vista 32 bit drivers. Install these drivers if you have not installed them before.

Second, if you are using Vista 64 bit, Dell does not make a driver for the 64 bit O/S. You can re-install your Vista to 32 bit or buy a printer that is compatible with 64 bit O/S

Right cartridge incorrect and printer will not

I have the same issue where the printer displays "Right cartridge Incorrect". However, it's had no problems up until about two weeks ago and I've had the right cartridge in place for about a year or so.
