When you print on the original, non-original cartridges or CISS the ink into the cartridge will inevitably end. The printer will indicate about it to you. Perhaps will be displayed that the ink cartridges can not be identified. On the printer will light the red indicator near the figure 'Droplet'.

- If you have the original cartridges, remove them and install new one.
- If you have the refillable cartridges, then take them out and refill. See here. Insert them back. Refillable cartridges are reset when you remove them and then inserted. The printer thinks that you have inserted a new cartridge.
- If you have a CISS, press a button on a chip, hold it for about 5 seconds. Release. The printer thinks that you insert a new cartridges.
Addition:
If the reset with the button are not help, then:
1) Clean the contacts by the eraser. Cloth or your finger will not help.
2) Insert the cartridge as far as it can go. I recommend to insert an extra strut for better contact between the cartridge unit and the contact group.
3) If there is a battery, check the power from it and check if the connection is correct.
4) Insert the originals - if they are not detected, the problem is in the printer.
