I believe that this is related to the failure on the part of the ink cartridges installed. Since this is a brand new printer, I recommend that you claim for the warrant of your printer by returning it to the store. You may also purchase a new cartridge online. Here are the sites where you can purchase compatible ink cartridges for this printer.

If you have more questions, please don't hesitate to ask here at HelpOwl. Experts here are always willing to answer your questions to the best of our knowledge and expertise.
