My HP Officejet Pro 8720 won't accept the new ink cartridges. Says that the cartridges are for older generation printer? These are the same HP Cartridges I've been using since I purchased the printer. What gives?

If this is a genuine HP ink cartridge, I would need some information related to the ink cartridges and the printer which cannot be shared on a public post for security reasons.

@Betty0610 - @JohnDeere318 posted the issue with more details (and some pictures) in the thread here:
https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Ink-Cartridges-Print-Quality/Older-Generation-Cartridge-Error/... where they indicate the printer is an Officejet 8702. Can you respond to that thread? Thanks in advance.
