Double check the cartridge.
Many times there is a little piece of "tape" covering the heads that have to be removed before you put it in the printer. If it is not removed, the heads are not connnecting - thus it will appear as if nothing is connected.

it takes 2 cartridges, a black think its no 17 and a colour think its no 27. both must be clipped in, then it asks you is this a new cartirdge ect. ps.update: Lexmark is a good machine, and the ink is only £12 a cartridge in Asda (Walmart) so it cheap compared to alot of machines. There is also a problem shooter facility on the x1100 series which will help you with your problem

I'm assuming you have both cartridges in at the same time.Must have both of them put in.

Provided you bought the correct
cartridge it should work.
But you have wasted your money
buying a lexi, more trouble than they are worth
far too costly for new ink, sell it!!
