It shouldn't take much force. While looking at the manual, I see there is a tab on the back side of the holder. Make sure this is flipped back towards you making the hole for the cartridge more assessable. If this tab flips forward, it could be in the way and keeping the print cartridge from popping into place. With the latch on top, out of the way; and the latch on the back, flipped towards you, put the print cartridge (gold foil end in first). Seat the front og the cartridge and push in and down with very light force and it should pop into place.
