Thanks Cari for your reply. The make of my printer in a Lexmark X5150
series. It worked 1 month ago. No I have not uninstalled ar reinstalled
the printer. Yes I've run a cleaning and maintenance cycle. I honestly
think i'ts the cartridge. it's a new cartridge. I bought one and it didn't
work so I took it back and got another one it worked for about a month. Now
it's not working. I blotted the cartridge on a damp papertowel and the colors
green and blue and yellow appeared. I copied a picture and it came out. I
copied the pictured again and it was black and white. I damped the papertowel
again and only the colors green and blue came out not yellow this time. The
picture will not print in color anymore. It only comes out with purple
stripes on it. I've tried adjusting, cleaning, and doing a printer test on
the printer and nothing works.
