Good afternoon all,
This is my first post on this forum so if I am doing it wrong then my apologies and hopefully you can direct me to the correct way.
I have a HP Smart Tank Plus 555 printer and since a few weeks 2 colours are not printing anymore. When I print the ink status report then these 2 are empty and the cyan and black are visible. The ink tank for all colours are full. I have tried the steps to clean the printheads but unfortunately no luck.
I have read an article in this forum about hot water but this doesn't apply to this type of printer as I don't have a cartridge.
Can someone assist me of give any tips in solving this issue?
Thanks in advance for the replies.
Kind regards,
