There are few things in this world I hate more than printers. Every printer of every brand that I have ever owned have been nothing but a source concentrated rage and frustration. Why haven't they figured out the design of printers after all these years? It must be deliberate.
I have never agreed more with 4 sentences in my entire life. I am in the tech world and printers are worse than literally any electronic and my rage knows no bounds with them. Can put a man on the moon but cant make a decent printer.
My goodness! So agree with everyone here, they are the most frustrating POS out there. It seems like pure control because the money is only in supplies, not the hardware. So, there is going to be a major break point in those adjacent items.
Printer manufacturer’s are all in cahoots. Its a conspiracy. What we all need is for someone, like Elon Musk, to come out with a printer that defeats all this “Planned Obsolescence” crap. One simple low cost/ basic printer, with inexpensive ink, available to purchase by the quart. Personally, I only use my printer for documents. if i want to print out a color photo, i upload it up to a site that specializes in making high quality prints & have it at my door in 2-3 days max. They are MUCH better quality (their printers are many thousands of $$) vs using any home printer… and MUCH CHEAPER than having to buy expensive inks every 5-10 prints.
(Epson Workforce WF-2750) The two procedures for fixing the problem both start with removing the cartridge in question. However. the "Ink cartridge not recognized" error overrides the entire menu (!) and prevents executing ANY other commands, including...(wait for it).....setting the ink tray into the load position, allowing ink cartridges to be removed. So immediately, at step one, this instruction video is dead in the water. Bravo.
Third party cartridges aren't working simply because the printer company (an oriental company) has told its machines not to recognise them. The block comes down the line straight into your machine via Internet (what a useful device) It didn't before, yet they still made billions, but why now. They are following Adobe's lead with Photoshop, killing off the inspiration of those who cannot afford their costly software and by milking those who can't afford their $10,000 a gallon ink supplies. Suddenly this year these vast wealthy companies are sending those who can't afford their exorbitant prices, to the wall. Its a block to those on a budget, many inspired writers and artists who just can't afford their exorbitant prices. Its the death of inspiration!
The description says it includes "how to override Epson ink cartridge not recognized" but that is not the case. I followed all the steps on downgrading the firmware version also, but that did not fix it either.
I have replaced the black cartridge with new official epson cartridges twice and it still won't recognize the cartridge. These new cartridges have new status monitor messages. How do I override the status monitor messages?
Thank you so much from UK after spending last 2 hours trying to get my Canon printer to recognise new cartridge, came across your vid and its WORKED 🤩🥰Thank you again
I suspect you've been using inkjet printers; I had one years ago, died once under warranty, they repaired it, & it worked for almost another month. GOODBYE inkjet printers. Since then, nothing but HP Laser Printers. Swap in a new toner cartridge, and you've also replaced most common wear parts of the printer. A dream come true.
Almost a year later and this video saved my LIFE. I had tried for at least an hour to get my cartridges to read. I went with the removing cartridges, turning printer off, unplugging and walking away. While the cartridges were out I also cleaned off their chips and the contact points of the printers with alcohol and a microfiber cloth. Came back maybe 30 minutes later and cartridges were being recognized again --- well black and cyan had the exclamation point, the cyan was reading as OEM and the magenta still had the X but I used a chip resetter and re-installed and bingo it was recognized also.
I had to make this comment. My Epson XP-530 that I have operating for more than 7 years, just today had this issue with the ink cartridge. I followed step by step all the directions of the video and just before I lost hope, after cleaning the contacts, it worked! Thank you!
Um...excuse me, but step 5? Plug it in but don't turn it on? How than do I install the new cartridges when the print head is not in position? Because the printer is not on 🤷🏽♂️
The easy way to change to a generic Brother 406 ink cartridge. Remove the Brother ink cartridges from your printer. Using a knife, pry off the tops of the Brother 406 Cartridges one by one. The top contains the Brother chip. .Pry off the tops of the generic cartridges one by one- do not mix them. Snap the Brother cartridge tops of the same color with the chip onto the generic cartridges of the same color. Some minor fitting on the generic cartridge tops will be required. The printer will now recognize the Brother chips on the generic cartridges but it will only work to replace low ink cartridges. Works like a charm. They thought they had me but I found the solution..
Okay so, I’ve had my printer print before an update. Now it won’t print. I saw you said it may have an error because of a firmware update. What do I do?

One thing I tried that worked: Turn off, take out all cartridges, turn on and replace them all desired cartridges (including the new one) when it's prompted.
Just had an issue with replacing the black ink cartridge for the 3rd time (first when I bought it and then replaced a couple weeks later no issue) Epson XP-15000. Upon replacing the black cartridge a 3rd time it would recongnize. I ended up rubbing my fingers on the metal contact on the cartridge, and finally on the contacts inside the printer itself and it finally worked.
My printer was working yesterday. The black just wasn't printing. So I cleaned the heads a few times. It was a fairly new cartridge so it has ink. Now I get a "can't detect the cartridge" error. I can't get to Home or maintenance. I've ordered a new epson cartridge. But does anyone think the printer might be dead? Epson NX430. I've had it for years, but has always worked great. I've always used OEM cartridges. But itbis sometimes days between when I use it. Cleaning has always fixed it.
My Epson printer constantly stops recognizing cartridges for no reason. Have had it stop recognizing brand new cartridges just after a few prints. The last time I barely printed anything, just did the head cleaning a few times and it stopped. Its been doing it for years, I can't remember the last time a cartridge actually got to being out of ink, happens with both OEM and 3rd party ink. Will never buy another Epson product again. I can't trust them.
I had to turn mine off when the ink cartridge was in "replace ink" position. It still didn't work, b/c I think mine is giving me the error messages when the cartridges are nearly out of ink. I'm already shopping for a new one since this is the 2nd time it's happened.
hI, i unpacked my WF-7210 PRINTER AND FOLLOWED THE instructions to insert the sublimation ink cartridges. But the printer is giving me an error that does not recognize the cartridge. What can I do please help me.
Of your using generic brand. DO NOT do the updates.. now my printer is stuck and unusable until in out branded ink in it. Which I'm sure is there purpose for these updates.
I have MFC-J497DW tried all your methods and still yellow message:Cannot Detect Ink.I don't use genuine cartridges but everything was always OK. I didn't use that printer for 2 months and noticed that one color doesn't print properly, i performed Head Cleaning and also downloaded and installed "improved" program ( Y17A_C2_UWC_PP-usa-inst-F2.EXE) and then all Cannot Detect Ink problem started. Can you help me, please?
@@CompAndSave No, it doesn't work. I Unplugged the printer for 2 days, removed all ( think) files with a name Brother from my computer, plugged it back and still the same massage "Cannot detect ink" on all cartridges!

I just replaced the blue cartridge. Then, after 100 page prints, I had to replace the red cartridge. I cleaned the printer heads, and the printed pages look really good and crisp. After about 20 prints, the black ink cart gets an error. However, the printouts were vi rant black with no indication that the ink was low. 😢 🤦♀️
Downloaded an epson update forced on me by Epson, now printer won't recognize my new ink cartridges that were recently installed. Contacted Epson and they recommended replacing the brand new cartridges I just replaced. Absolutely frustrating to have literally a six-mo old high end printer, and Epson offering zero support on it, after they clearly caused the issue.
my cartridges are only about 3 months old and my printer is only 3 months old but I only used them for the 1st couple weeks and havent used them for just over 2 months now it says black cartridge isnt installed correctly
We hadn't used our printer for a couple of years, no matter how long the ink dries up. I bought a $10 kit online. Make sure to carefully put all cartridges in a sealed plastic bag first! Directions show you how to put paper towels inside printer to catch water for each nozzle. You put clean water in a syringe, attach a tube to a nozzle & squirt water in. I ended up leaving a damp paper towel over the nozzles all night and closed the printer. Wipe the bottoms of the cartridges with warm water on a paper towel, then insert them back in and give it a try. Mine worked. Follow the directions on the box!
You can try to download the older version of firmware installation package to downgrade the firmware at your printer. For details, please check our page www.compandsave.com/epson-printer-firmware-reset-downgrade
I'm in the same boat as you. My Epson 2850 is now bricked and won't let me even get back to the main menu to try anything. It's won't go past the ink error screen.
@@MerissaM83 sheesh… yeah I had too go buy the Epson brand cartridges.. then it went back to normal operation.. try that if your still using 3rd party ink
i have a cannon and use official cannon ink. It just suddenly told me it cant print because it doesn't recognize the color ink cartridge. Printed just fine a week ago with the same cartridges installed
yeah same its trash ..all printers are like this... all about making that money on ink.. can buy a new printer for the cost of the ink... some printers come with ink so just buy a new printer lol
please add captured video to reset printer, especially HP 7410 all-in-one, talking is missleading, i think I followed it right. procedure might different on each printer.
HP8600 HP Black ran out. Replaced with New non Expired HP Black Cart. Tells me its damaged? Tried just about everything on the Web. Even went out and bought all 4 new HP Carts... Now It says all are damaged?????
If you only print sporadically, the cartridge carrier can get gummed up. If that's the case, there are videos here that will show you how to remove it and clean it. You would remove the cartridges, pull the lever on the far back right side of the cartridge carrier, then pull the carrier up and out. If I recall right, you place folded paper towel in the bottom of a glass bowl, add about an inch of HOT water to the bowl, then place the carrier into the water and let set for 10-20 minutes. Remove the carrier and place over another folded paper towel and let dry overnight before replacing. Worked for me.
I have restarted, removed and replaced the cartridges several times on my HP printer. When I try to print I get error code 04358A98 which completely locks up the machine then I have to unplug it. Then I get “Cartridges are not communicating with the printer “ I try to bypass it but it comes back.
I have an Epson Expression XP-7100 and I decided to try 3rd party cartridges (410XL). I installed the 3 colors with it and it doesn't tell me that the printer doesn't recognize them, however it simply won't print the ink at all. The only thing that shows up on a print test is black. Very frustrating. I tried running the printer ink head cleaning or whatever it's called and it didn't do anything. Anyone else was able to fix this issue with 3rd party cartridges???
It is possible that the print head is clogged or the tape at vent hole is not removed. Please follow the steps at our another video to see if it helps. ruclips.net/video/a7TGQQA42LU/видео.html
I had this issue. I was so frustrated. Head clean, head clean, head clean... no changes. I work with high-end commercial printers for the sign industry. Why couldn't I get my dinky desktop printer to work!? Operator error. Turns out I forgot to remove the tape. It was somewhat of a humbling moment.
None of this works now.. new firmware won’t allow 3rd party ink cartridges.. tried a couple new ones then bought a more expensive Epson brand and worked perfectly.
I understand devices are available that convince Epson printers that 3rd party cartridges that manufacture ink for Epson (at half the price) are Kosher...

wf 3820 when turned off returns the ink holder to the "stored" position which does not allow new cartridges to be added. Printer must be turned on to get new cartridges in. Your instructions, otherwise very good, are to not turn on the printer before adding new cartridge. Can't be done. HP next time...
If cleaning doesnt fix the problem just get a second set of cartridges, yeah right, do know how much that costs, I cant put out that much money for TWO sets of cartridges.

This is the most useless piece of video for fixing an ink cartridge not recognized by printer! Even worse, it took over 6 minutes when it could have been done in one!!!

Printer still inop. Thanks.
It worked for Hp 82 black cartridge ,thank you so much !😄
I appreciate that this video is trying to help but who the f* still keeps used ink cartridges? 3:10
worked great thanks
I looked on my app. Said ink cartridges aren't compatible 😑. Least my printer is cleaned
wf 3820 when turned off returns the ink holder to the "stored" position which does not allow new cartridges to be added. Printer must be turned on to get new cartridges in. Your instructions, otherwise very good, are to not turn on the printer before adding new cartridge. Can't be done. HP next time...
If cleaning doesnt fix the problem just get a second set of cartridges, yeah right, do know how much that costs, I cant put out that much money for TWO sets of cartridges.
None of these things worked for me. I'll never buy an HP printer again but it looks like others are bad like this also.
My epson printer sucks. I print 5 pages and bam, my cartridge is empty
Thanks! This helped me out.
How to add Wi-Fi to my printer
So how do you get the printer cartridge cradle to move out from the right side when the power still has to be off, you forgot that step 😢
I have the same problem, you can't re install them,🤣😂
thx
I'll print at the library. .......it at least is reliable.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too wordy - takes til almost three minutes to get going.
Who keeps the old cartridges???? 😡😡😡😡
I have an Epson workforce 645. Tried this video and numerous other videos and none of them work. I'm ready to shit-can this printer!
printer still not working why does everying technological have to be so difficult
I had installed new cartridges, it was working fine. I was printing and then suddenly it did this shit. EPSON is the worst of the worst
Stop using any ink, do your crosswords, etc. on line instead --- save paper, ink and the world !!!
how to downgrade firmware update
Here is the firmware downgrade url for HP - www.compandsave.com/hp-printer-firmware-downgrade/ and it is for Epson - www.compandsave.com/epson-printer-firmware-reset-downgrade
Without a doubt the worst thing ever put on the entire Internet. Truly appalling
Why use a chip? its only purpose it to stop the printer from working for no legitimate reason
DOES NOT WORK
rub the shit out of the contacts with rubber alcohol, eventually fixed it
NO GOOD FOR MY EPSON XP 540 so if you have one of these, don't waste your time--just buy genuine inks. No point asking ersatz inks supplier to replace the duds--they just don't reply...there's no honor among thieves! Sorry my feedback isn't better and thanks for trying to help.
Step 1. Reduce video to 30 seconds.
Wow, well pronounced.
This is the most useless piece of video for fixing an ink cartridge not recognized by printer! Even worse, it took over 6 minutes when it could have been done in one!!!
EXPIRED CARTRIDGES, EXPIRED BY HP CHIP?!
I never buy from now HP product! NEVER!
Step 1 - don't buy Epson
He is from dhar mann
Nope. Didnt work.
I will never buy your trash printers ever again.
These printer are horrible
Stupid Epson Printer's, HP builds better Units
I’m about ready to throw this POS Epstein 5200 at my wife for buying it. 2 months old and it will not accept the 4 new ink cartridges!!! 🤪
Lots of TALK, no RESULT, TALK LESS DO PROPER WAY TO SOLVE PROBLEM
NOTHING has worked! I HATE this printer! It was literally printing fine a few days ago and then boom, it randomly doesn’t recognize the cartridge. I’ll be investing in a new printer. Tired of wasting money on ink, only for it to stop working midway!
