For an inkjet, make sure that the printer is on (plug in and turn on for a new printer). Then open the top cover and wait for the cartridge carrier to come to a stop at the left side of the printer. Then remove the old cartridge (if needed) by pushing the cartridge down to a slight angle then pull it out of the carrier. Open the new ink packaging (one cartridge at a time) and remove the tape (do not touch the electrical contacts or the nozzles). Insert the cartridge into the carrier (black on the left) at a slight angle (towards you). Then push the cartridge up into the printer cartridge carrier. Repeat this for the other cartridge then close the top cover. (The light will blink orange if the cartridges are not correctly seated or both cartridges are not installed.) Wait for the green light to stop blinking before sending a print job to the printer. (The printer needs time to charge the system with the new ink.)
For pictures, see the set up guide: http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/6/0300000636/01/iP2600_ESI_EN-US_V1.pdf or the Canon support site: http://usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_ip_series/pixma_ip2600#ServiceAndSupport . Search for "replace ink cartridge".
If the ink cartridge carrier does not move to the left, check for any foreign objects blocking the path of the carrier. Some inkjets have a plastic guide (usually clear or translucent) that needs to be connected to the cartridge carrier. Shift it down and into position. Other inkjets can have smudges on the guide that can block motion of the carrier. (Clean with a soft lint-free cloth without removing grease from other components.)
I hope this helps.

A specified period of time has
elapsed without receiving a response from the digital camera. / A print
mode compliant with PictBridge is not selected. / A specified period of
time has elapsed without receiving a response from the digital camera.
The machine cannot communicate with the connected camera.
Disconnect the cable between the machine and the camera to clear the error.
Check the following items, then try printing again.
1. Confirm that the camera you are using supports PictBridge or Canon Bubble Jet Direct.
If the camera does not support either one, the machine cannot print directly from the camera.
2.
Set the camera in PictBridge print mode before it is connected to the
machine. This is required before printing for some cameras that support
PictBridge.
Please refer to the camera instructions for more
information about procedures required before and after connection to the
