Error: Incorrect black cartridge installed.

I am running my PC on Widdows 7 64-bit.  My printer is HP PSC 1610 All-in-One.

I have run the solution finder, updated all the software & drivers, and retired many times.  Nothing is working.  It seems like everytime my printer gets a little age on it I get similar problems until I give up and buy a new one.  I think that is the strategy - once the warranty is up you might as well buy a new printer.

Help.

Hi CookiePem,

I would suggeest removing the ink catridges, closing the service bay, unplugging the device, and waiting about a minute. Reconnect the power and turn the printer on to see if the error clears. If it does then reinsert the cartridges to see if the issue is resolved.

Hope this helps!
