After you have taken the ink cartridge out of the packaging the first step is to open up the printer. You will notice instructions on the inside that will help you install the cartridges. You have to press the cartridge release lever. Remove your cartridge and put the new one in. Once you have put this cartridge in at an angle, press on the side closest to the release lever (where the color tabs are located) until you hear a snap.
When it comes to the black cartridge, you follow the same steps but as this cartridge is a lot bigger than the color ones you have to use both your index fingers to press on the front of it until you hear it snap.
If you are still having problems replacing the cartridges you can always contact Lexmark's Customer Support Centre at 1-800-LEXMARK. They should be able to assist with the problem.
You can also find a lot of useful YouTube tutorials showing and explaining in detail every single step you need to take in order to be able to change the cartridge.
