Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My Envy 5020 has just started to say "Remove and Reinstall ink cartridge".

 

I've tied a reset and I've also uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them but still no good.

Welcome to HP Support Community


I would like to help

 

Please try these steps

 

- Turn on the printer.

- Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.

- Disconnect the USB cable from the rear of the printer. If your printer has a network or wireless connection, leave it connected.

- Remove the ink cartridges from the printer and clean the electrical contacts with a lint free cloth

- With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and from the wall outlet or power strip.

- Wait at least 60 seconds.

- Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.

NOTE: HP recommends connecting the printer power cord directly to a wall outlet.

- Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.

- Turn on the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.

- The printer might go through a warm-up period. The printer lights might flash, and the carriage might move.

- Wait until the warm-up period finishes and your printer is idle and silent before you proceed.

- Reinsert the ink cartridges, and then close the ink cartridge access door.

- If you receive a prompt to print a calibration page, do so.

 

Also ensure the printer has the latest Firmware https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_1776648-1643972-16
