Dell photo 944 printer error 1102 - Dell Photo 964 All-In-One InkJet Printer

I think it might be the thicker of the two ribbons that go from the top of the printer to the bottom. Try to push it in a little more but be careful the little metal strips on it are really fragile I think thats what happened to mine

hi there,

you can try these steps:

try to remove the new black cartridge. get a clean cloth. gently wipe the copper strip of the cartridge. unplug the power cable of the printer. gently wipe the contacts of the black cartridge carrier (where you put the black cartridge in). close the carrier, plug the power cable back in. install the black cartridge. then check for the error code.
if you still have same error code, try the old cartridge.
if the old cartridge still works, you need to contact dell for the replacement of the black cartridge (if you purchase the black cartridge from dell)
if the old cartridge is also giving same error. try the steps on the color cartridge as well, it might be with the color cartridge error.
or both.
worst case scenario the contacts on the printer carrier might be broken already.
but in this kind of situation. 98% it's the cartridge that's causing the issue.

have a great day :)

Turn off the printer and unplug the power cord for about a minute. This should reset the error codes. If you still receive the same code when you go to print, open the case and the cartridges should move to the center to be replaced. Take each cartridge out and make sure there is nothing that is covering the sensors or physically wrong with them. Put the cartriges back in and make sure they are "seated" properly. Test to see if you still receive the error message.

If you still experience the error message and the cartridges are old or less than 50% ink, there might be an issue with the cartridge's internal sensor. You can find out more information on the internal sensor's HERE
