HP OfficeJet 4650 All-in-One Printer

My HP printer had the "HP Instant Ink Status: Cannot Print. Visit www.hpinstantink.com for information." error message while using an instant ink cartridge, so I thought the ink levels were low. I bought some new ink that is NOT instant ink, and placed it in the slot as normal. But now the printer says Cannot print non-instant ink cartridge. The new ink I bought is compatible because I have an identical one with the same ink. 

 

Can someone assist with this? It's driving me nuts to the point where I'm starting to now want to buy HP printers anymore because of this.
