I have the same thing. I suspect they have released a messed up Firmware :-(I am trying to find a key combination at startup to see if that does something, the printer is otherwise completely unresponsive.

you might have to check for a maintenance kit and change the rolls.

Try manufacturers website

"isn't printing" can mean several different things, each with a different cure. If it tries to print, but no ink on paper, run a cleaning cycle and then a nozzle check. If it just sends the paper through without trying to print on it, paper position sensor may be broken, out of adjustment, or otherwise damaged. Likely to cost more to fix than a new printer. If it just sits there and does nothing, check self-test, print setup page. Does that work?

data cable is broken or the port(printer or computer) is faulty

Can you please try to really properly describe your problem as at present, I certainly have no idea what it could be as your description does not really mean anything.

This can happen due the printer automatically running a cleaning cycle when any new cartridge is installed, to ensure the ink is properly run into the printhead down to the nozzles. In the main, what happens is the ink that is used during such cleans goes into the Waste Pad but sits on top if the pad is fairly soaked with ink from past cleans and is thus transferred on to the underside of the printhead - thus to get smudged on to the print paper. Ideally, fit a Waste Ink Bottle (search on youtube.com for your printer model and for the Waste Ink Bottle installation - some dealers of ink cartridges offer packs with full instructions but is generally easy and cheap to DIY). All you need is some tubing to fit on the waste ink drain tubing (normally inside the RH side .- where the printhead parks between uses - the youtube video for your model will show how to easily remove the end panel and fit the tubing) and then to put the end of the replacement tubing into a small glass (not plastic as can be easily tipped over - glass is better as heavier) so any waste ink is drained from the felt waste pads under where the nozzles park. Meantime, put the printhead into the Change Cartridge position, then unplug the power lead - NOT turn printer off as that simply parks the head again. With the head in the CC position and power off, you can freely move the whole printhead with its cartridges to the left - then make a decent pad of kitchen paper and find the felt waste pad down on the RH end and press to soak away the surplus ink. Repeat several times until most ink has gone. There is then none to get back on to the nozzle area again and you should be free of the blotching. A small torch will help to see inside the printer. There is sure to be at least one youtube video for your printer on fitting the drain system but if not - try several print cartridge suppliers (not generally the sell-only eBay ones so search using google for main dealers)

Does your computer have any further information when it's connected? "Printer Error" sounds pretty generic, not a lot of detail to tell you where to look. I would open the ink loading hatch, and check that there's nothing jammed in there, that all your ink carts are fully seated. If nothing there, head for the back of the printer, pull the paper-handling tray out, and see if there's paper jammed in there. replace. Pull out paper tray, make sure there is paper there, and that there's nothing jammed in there too. When you turn it on, is there any sound, like the printer head moving back and forth? I have a similar printer, and the error messages I see are rather more informative. . .
