1. if the printer monitor says that your colored cartridge has run out, you can press the orange button for at least 5-10 seconds and it will solve your problem. it is called a cartridge reset.

2. if the printer says that it cannot recognize the color cartridge. practically, you need to change your colored cartridge with a new one. However, if you have changed the color cartridge and still the problem is the same, you might have a carriage problem. try to clean the contacts of the carriage and try reinstalling your cartridge again.

I hope I've helped you with your problem.

    if it cannot recognize your cartridge, please take it out and clean the contacts at the back of the cartridge. at the same time, try to clean the contacts on the cartridge carriage. if you already did these things and still the cartridge is not recognized, you need a new cartridge.

Can not print from my Cannon i950. 'paper thikness lever position

A friend of mine had the same problem and turned out to be the print head. They can be pricey so a new printer would be in order probably. Could also be the waste ink counter as well. Here are some steps to see if you can get rid of the 7 orange blinks:

1. Start with printer OFF
2. Hold down RESUME and then hold down POWER
3. Release RESUME
4. press RESUME twice, then release POWER
5. let green light blink until printhead has finished moving.
6. Select functions below with RESUME, execute with POWER

0 presses - green light - Test Print (exit service for i960)
1 press - orange light - EEPROM info print
2 presses - green light - EEPROM initialise
3 presses - orange light - reset waste ink counter.

If this doesn't work then you know its the print head for sure.
