I am getting a printer cartidge error - "incompatible."  This error came in after I completed printing a few pages.  The cartidge was supplied by HP instant Ink and is authentic.  It had only been in  use a short time and was essentially full before the error came up.   The firmware & sorftware are up-to-date, and the cartidges have been removed and reinstalled multiple times.  In fact when I used the problem solver one test page printed successfully but the error then returned immediately.  Any ideas?

The printer cartridge issue has been resolved.  I finally made contact with the appropriate Instant Ink support person who tested a few things and determined the tricolor cartridge had failed.  A replacement cartridge was sent to replace the bad one.
