Hi! @smakar, Welcome to the HP Support Community, this is a great place to get support, find answers and tips.

 

Make sure you are using only regular ink cartridges on the printer. Even if a single ink cartridge installed on the printer you will have issues printing.

 

Try checking the account after sometime see if the issue persists.

 

“Your Instant Ink account page has data on past deliveries and estimated shipments.  It also helps you understand what state your cartridges are in based on HP’s data.  Any issues will be shown with steps to fix.  Please check your account page to see the latest cartridge information by signing into your account at “instantink.com

 

Try disabling and enabling the web services on the printer to solve this issue.

 

Reset the printer and check if it helps.

 

1) Turn on the printer, if it is not already on. 
2) Wait until the printer is idle and silent.
3) With the printer turned on, unplug the power cord from the printer & wall. 
3) Wait for 60 seconds.  
4) Plug the power cord back into the printer and wall, ensure the printer is plugged into the wall & not to a surge protector. 
5) Turn on the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.
 

Also, try updating the printer's firmware - HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware
