Clean the print cartridge contacts

cleaned or aligned the print cartridges.
Before cleaning the print cartridge contacts, remove the print cartridge and verify that
nothing is covering the print cartridge contacts, then reinstall the print cartridge. If you
continue to get messages to check the print cartridges, clean the print cartridge
contacts.
Make sure you have the following materials available:

Dry foam rubber swabs, lint-free cloth, or any soft material that will not come
apart or leave fibers.
