After changing my ink cartridges a message appeared on the printer screen saying there is a printer problem or ink system problem.

This error may be caused either by a problem in one of the cartridges, or by a defect in printhead. Please remove all cartridges from the printer and see if the error is the same without cartridges ? If so, your print head is defect.
