There may be a problem either with the way the MIS cartridges are 
seated or the pertaining chips. Make sure they are pushed all the 
way down and held securely by the tie wrap. Try this: push the 
cartridge replacement button, then unplug the power after the 
cartridges have moved all the way to the left. Try wiggling them,
just to make sure they are all the way down, even a 1/16" gap at the 
bottom will keep the red light on. Push the cartridges all the way 
to the right, then plug the printer back on. If this does not solve 
the problem, you may have a bad chip in one of the cartridges or it 
may have been damaged during installation. MIS may replace it for 
you, or else you can order replacement chips, they are about $15 
each.

Hope this helps
