I have replaced the "Y" and the "C" ink cartridges, as error message said to, and now printer now states the date, time and "Mnl". I can hear it printing, but get only blank pages. I tried copying from the glass and from the feeder and from my computer. The pages are blank. It did do a "cleaning". What is wrong? Thank you.

Go to the printer properties and print a test page. Does that work?

Hello, thanks, I could only print blank pages from printer properties, but could get test prints from the front of the printer (menu). I only received the colors red and blue (magenta and cyan(?). I got only those two colors twice.
