- Remove the affected cartridge or cartridges from the printer.
- Turn the printer off and wait for 2 minutes.
- Turn the printer back on and wait for a further 2 minutes.
- Once the printer warns that certain cartridge or cartridges are missing, reinstall them one at a time.

- If the issue persists, check the life of the maintenance items in your machine in case any of them need to be replaced.
Faint characters on printouts
- Print 15–20 pages and check to see if the problem persists.
