Hi - I've just replaced both ink cartridges in a recently inherited MP280. As I rarely need the colour cartridge, I decided to save some money & purchase a remanufactured version. Having installed both cartridges, I'm now getting a flashing E5 message on my printer, the orange light beneath is permanently on, & the A & B lights are flashing intermittently. I've tried pressing 'reset' for 5 seconds & I've turned the printer off & disconnected it from the mains for 10mins - all have failed to rectify the problem. The cartridges are both the correct ones for the MP280, & I have definitely installed them correctly. If anyone has any ideas to help this very frustrated englishman, I'd be very grateful to hear from you !! Thank you, in advance....
