Hey enisjd03,

According to this article regarding error lights and message on the product:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01781031&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...

This is caused by the paper tray being closed.

I would suggest expanding the section that your error matches and follow the steps available.

Hope this helps!

Nothing work, I've tried it all, what about the new black ink I replaced? is it not showing due to the paper tray being closed? I've followed all of the steps and nothing has changed.

It was a error in the new HP ink i brought. I tested this by pulling the old ink cartridge and my printer went back to normal I had to beg Walmart to replace the ink which they were not going to do because the ink was open. The new ink worked normally and it registered and everything. Still a little disappointed at the HP's quality of the ink and the fact that I almost had to pay another $15 for another pack of ink and it was the product not working properly. Thank you you were the one who had the solution to my problem.

Glad I can help in any way if at all, enisjd03.

If there are any additional problems please post back ASAP!

This happened to me, too. It's the third or fourth bad HP print cartridge I've gotten.

I'm sick and tired of this. The HP cartridges cost enough. HP printers get junkier and junkier. The next time I buy a printer, it's going to be a different brand.
