After changing the ink cartridges, it now won't print. Keep getting a message that says "There is a problem with the printer or print system. Turn the printer off then on. If you continue to get this message, contact HP"

Hi @duxchandlers

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the  "Problem with printhead"

 

Let's try a power reset on the printer

 

Reset the product

  • With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
  • Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
  • Wait at least 60 seconds.
  • Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
  • Reconnect the power cord to the printer.
  • Turn the printer on. HP recommends plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet.

 Try the steps in the document -Error Indicates Faulty Printhead

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
