The video below shows what the compatible PG-545XL /CL-546XL cartridges look like for this printer

Ink in the cartridge, but not printing

The cartridge may show as empty or produce faded print despite ink remaining.
Printing stops once the cartridge reaches around 30% remaining ink, which is kept as a reserve.
This reserve cannot be accessed and is used to keep the internal sponge moist and protect the printhead.
This is normal behaviour and not a fault.
The cartridge will need to be replaced.

Printing blank pages / fading on print

Clean the printhead with a piece of damp kitchen tissue (warm water).
If this doesn't work, sit the cartridge printhead on some moist kitchen roll for 20 minutes.
Make sure the bottom of the cartridge (where the ink comes out of) is touching the kitchen roll.
