Color Ink 57 sent to me for the cartridge labeled 64/303.

[NonaLee1018]

The new color cartridge sent to me does not work in my printer.  The first error message said there was a paper jam.  I reinserted the old cartridge and the printer worked fine.  Tried the new color cartridge again and got an error message that said "carriage problem."  My old cartridge number is 64/303 with pink case and the new one sent to me is 57, shorter and black case.  Using the chat feature I reported the problem and after 30 minutes was told that it was beyond the capability of the employee to solve my problem.  I talked to a second person who confirmed all my information and had me re-insert the new cartridge AGAIN to see if it would work.  No, it did not.  Talked to a third person who said they would send me a "standard" shipment.  He said he could not guarantee what cartridge I would get in 7-10 days.  It could be another 57.  Now I'm wondering if my printer is obsolete due to this color cartridge problem.
