Just replace ink and code error came up 1203; what is the solution; Please!
Error 1203 is basically a cartridge error. Try cleaning the contacts on the cart & in the cart carrier, reseat the carts & then power off the printer. while holdin down the stop clear button, rebrick the power chord.

Noticed you message while searching for answers to repairing another Lexmark printer. You probably already have the answers by now but here is what the manual says.
Hardware Error: 1200
The All-In-One is stalled.
1. Press Power to turn off your all-in one.
2. Unplug your all-in-one fro the wall outlet.
3 Check for paper jams.
4 Plug in your all-in-one
Cartridge Error: 1200
The cartridge carrier is jammed.
1. Turn off you all-in-one
2. Unplug the all-in-one form the wall outlet.
3. Open the control panel.
4 Open the cartridge access door
5. Make sure the cartridges are snapped in place in the carrier.
6. Check for objects obstructing the carrier.
7. Plug in your all-on-one
8. Press power to turn your all-in-one back on.
Hope this resolves your issues.
The ultimate fix for this problem is to give your Lemark and Dell printers to people that you really dislike. Let them live with the frustration. Then buy yourself a Hewlett Packard, Canon, or Epson printer. Check the cost of the cartridges for each brand prior to making a purchase. Purchase the printer with the least expensive cartridges and one that will take the generic (compatible) cartridges available in retail stores and refill stores. My personal favorite are the Epsons. They print excellent colors and are very affordable to own, and most important, operate.
Let me know if it works?
