(If your printer has a battery, remove it.)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Unplug the power cord<\/strong> from the wall and wait for 60 seconds.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Plug it back<\/strong> in and switch on the printer.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]By following these steps, you should be able to overcome the “Depleted cartridges”<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0error.
