colour cartridge not recognised

[jaycee4me]

My printer will not recognise my colour cartridge.  I use instant ink and it tells me that it cannot send any more ink because it can't read the ink levels from the printer. I have tried every recommended trouble shooting procedure I can find. It only happens with the tri-colour cartridge as far as i can tell.  At first the printer would just ask me to remove and re insert the cartridge, and it would work after a couple of times doing this.  Now it isn't letting me print at all.  This has been going on for a couple of weeks at least.  How do I replace the cartridge?

The printer asks for reinserting the color cartridge before printing.
