PIXMA MG2522 print head alignment will not run

robmm76

I have just installed new printer cartridges.  Black and white and color prints look fine.

But I get a message telling me to run the print head alignment.  I printed the alignment page, placed it in the scanner and pressed the scan button but nothing happened.  The error light did not blink but is on solidly.

Now what do I do?
