I have been using the new cartridges for the past 2 weeks without any issues.
From yesterday I see the following message for both Tri-color and Blank Ink cartridges:
"Cartridge cannot be used until printer is enrolled in HP Instant Ink"
If I put back both the old cartridges then the error message goes away.
Tried cleaning the new cartridges but didn't make any difference.
I'm still enrolled in HP Instant Ink.
I'm unable to use my printer, could someone help.

If the issue persists, restart the wireless router, the printer, and the PC
Make sure the printer is connected to the internet.
