Hi,

I went to print something this evening and got an error with the tri colour cartridge saying it could not communicate, as i had just received new black and tri colour cartridges i installed them, but still got the same issue with the tri colour.

@PeteJ1, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.

 

I understand you are not able to print due to this error. 

 

Make sure the ink cartridges are properly inserted in the printer, you may refer to - Replace HP inkjet printer cartridges

 

Kindly perform the steps mentioned in this document - Ink cartridge error

 

If the error persists with both the color ink cartridges, please reach out to the HP Technical Support team in your region regarding the service/replacement options for your printer.

You may create a case on the website to obtain a case number if required. Kindly watch this video to know how.

 

Keep me posted for any other assistance.
