Hi, I have a HP Envy 5530 printer. Today I bought calidad ink cartridges that are the "alternative for HP 61 XL".
When I installed the black new calidad ink cartridges, an error messages pops up on my HP printer "Ink Cartridge Problem: The following Ink Cartridge must be replaced. Super frustrating. How can I get this printer to work?

Hi @KH_SYD_25,
I'd like to help!
Update the printer firmware, Download available firmware updates from the HP website
With the printer on and connected to the computer, go to HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads, and then identify your printer. Look for and install any available firmware updates. Refer to the document HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware
The third-party ink cartridges will work. But there are many cartridges in the market which is refilled and sometimes the chip is not configured to work with the printer. You need to contact the cartridge manufacturer and find out why it's not working. Try a different cartridge supplier and check if that works.
I hope that answers your concern adequately. Let me know!
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
