The error might be a false alarm due to a sensor malfunction. Try cleaning the print heads using your printer's maintenance mode (usually accessible through the printer's control panel or software). If that doesn't work, check the cartridge installation to ensure it's properly seated. A faulty cartridge can also trigger this error.
