Hi,
I refilled my printer's ink cartridges and when I put them back and try to print, i get the message to insert the printer head!
But it is already inserted. |

Try cleaning your printing head with a mild solvent (usually comes in the refill kit).
Make sure it is nice and dry before putting it back, and do not use tissues or anything to dry the head. |

If the orange warning light is on then it may need to be reset. I have two Canon printers one an MP610 and the other MP220. One is 5 inks and the other two cartridge system. When I refill the MP610 I now have a chip re-setter machine for that but before I had it I would have to disable the ink level indicator but still press the reset button on it as well. On the MP 220 I always had to reset it as it was none chipped cartridge. As you do not say what model then please bare in mind that I am guessing from my experience with my models but the resetting usually works.

Maybe there is a problem on the connector of the cartridge inside the printer try to restart it or off it and wait for a couple of seconds then on it if it doesnt have any effect you need to bring it to a printer specialist or buy a new one
