printer won't work

I have a Lexmark X2470, which is a printer, scanner, and copier, all in one.

After I installed a new ink cartridge, it won't work. There's a light in the bottom, right-hand corner of the printer that signifies that the printer is on, but now, it's blinking. When I attempt to print a page (or even scan something, for that matter), I just get a message that says "scanner unit is open," with a picture showing the printer with the scanner unit lifted up, as if I were trying to get to the ink cartridge!

The scanner unit is closed! This is ridiculous! I've tried opening it and closing it again, but it's not taking!

What am I doing wrong? How do I get this damned thing to work, again?
 
Hmm have you tried shutting the power off on the whole thing and bringing it back on?

Double check that the ink cart is in there properly as well.
