My HP printer is not working…the message that appears in the window is: “ the cartridges are not communicating correctly with the printer”. I have cleaned the cartridges as stated in the suggestions and it has not helped…I have no ink cartridges on hand to change them out…Please send a color and black ink cartridge as i don’t know which it is or if its any of them. Thank You
