@Justhelp1, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.
I see that the printer is not reading the ink cartridges. I believe you are using HP ink cartridges.
What is the exact error?
Insert one ink cartridge at a time to identify the defective one.
Check if 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
Insert the old ink cartridge and check for the error. If no error, then the new one is defective
If the error persists with 2 different ink cartridges, it could be an issue with the printer.
