This part of instructions to get more recycling envelopes for unused/used ink cartridges is not working - Click Recycle your ink cartridge or Recycle your toner cartridge at the bottom of the Cartridge Status area. The virtual assistant isn't helping with anything for this and every time I try to chant with an agent it says there's a technical issue.
