HP Photosmart 5514

Ink cartridge on my HP Photosmart 5514 is stuck to the right and will not move left at all. I have tried these solutions without any success. I tried moving the white circular part next to where the cartridge is stuck. That didn’t work I tried the opening and closing turning on and off trying to get the printer to move the ink cartridges to the left. It stays in one place and makes a loud grinding noise. I am unable to move it manually to the left. Any solutions. I have tried everything that was online.
