240 and 241 is the correct ink. XL is the larger cartridges.

The color CL-241 contains all the colors so why would one of them not print? In my case it's the red. Yellow and blue work but not red? How does this happen?

I missed this post, if you are still having a problem please create a new post since this one has a marked solution. However I think I can help you. You should run a nozzle/print head cleaning function and follow that with a test print.

I don't know who marked it solved, but it's not.

I did run all cleaning on the heads.

It was marked solved for the original poster. If you ran all the cleaning programs and the test page shows one color not printing, I suspect you have a bad color cartridge.

Yes but I did not mark it solved. I don't know who did. I just got new cartridges in the mail so hopefully they will have the red.
