This error is related to the scanner.
Probably you have a dirty lamp or white plate.
If you are able to do it, try to take the screws of the glass and clean the lamp and mirrors with a dry cloth.
See you!

I'm not sure what do you mean i f you mean how to disable the consumable alarm you can do it by the follow step:
press the yellow [clear mode] key, than press the follow numbers 1-0-7 and than press and hold the red key [cancel\stop] until on the screen do not appear the service mode. When the service mode will appear press [copy sp] on the touch screen, then press [5.mode] on the touch screen and press [next] on the touch screen until you come to [5-507-001] ;[5-507-002];[5-507-003] and follow there you need to change the consumable alarm than you want by putting "0" in place of "1".

Hello -
Did you perhaps not mean to post under the 1315? I am not sure if you have this printer or another model. The 1315 normally takes a different number ink cartridge.

Meanwhile - gotta tell you that the 1315 is the buggiest printer I ever had. If you purchased it recently and can find your receipt, I'd take it back! Since they've pretty much done away with the 1315, if it was a recent purchase, it was likely a clearance item from some place.

Try taking all the ink cartridges out, uninstall the printer entirely, and reinstall it (the entire printer, not just the cartridges). Blow your printer out with canned air as well - dust, pet hair, people hair, fuzz and general paper fibers can build up more than we think, and cause error messages and other printing problems.

That should help, if it was the 1315 model.

That being said, note that if it still doesn't work, and you have the 1315, save yourself a lot of grief and toss it in the trash and buy another cheap printer! 1315 is Bug City!
