Hi @64Tiger,

Try these steps:

 

Ensure that you are using genuine HP 952 cartridges. Non-HP or refilled cartridges can cause errors.

    • Press the tab on the front of each cartridge to release it, and then remove it from the slot.
    • Inspect the cartridges and remove any protective tape or packaging materials. Removing packaging tape from the cartridge
  1. Check the Cartridge Contacts:
    • Make sure the electrical contacts are clean and free of ink or debris.
  2. Reinstall the Cartridges:
    • Insert each cartridge back into its corresponding slot until it clicks into place.
  3. Close the Ink Cartridge Access Door:
    • Lower the access door until it clicks back in place.

Reset the Printer

  • Press the power button to turn off the printer.
    • Unplug the power cord from the back of the printer and the wall outlet.
    • Wait at least 60 seconds.

Update Printer Firmware

I hope this helps.
