Greetings,

The error indicates an ink cartridge is not correctly installed or detected. Try removing and reseeding the cartridges.

Hi thanks for that info… as I’m not trying to use the printer function rather just the scanner I would think that I would not need ink cartridge… The ones I have are empty and I can’t see spending 20 bucks for each ink cartridge for a half ass printer that jams easily refuses to take paper, or comes up with errors from hell pardon my French!!! Can I disable the printer function to use just scanner?

Hi,

Unfortunately not. You'd have to buy a dedicated scanner to have a single function device.
