Welcome to the HP support community

 

I understand that you are getting cartridge error, I am glad to assist you.

Reset the printer

  • Reset the printer to recover from printer errors or failures.
  • If your printer has a rechargeable battery, remove it.
  • With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the printer.
  • Unplug the power cord from the power source.
  • Wait 60 seconds.
  • Reconnect the power cord to a wall outlet and to the printer.
  • NOTE: HP recommends plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet.
  • Turn on the printer to complete the reset.

Update Firmware

HP regularly releases new printer firmware versions with product enhancements or issue fixes.

Clean the electrical contacts

  • Remove any ink or debris from the contacts on the cartridges and in the carriage.
  • Turn the printer on.
  • Open the door to access the cartridges, wait for the carriage to stop moving, and then remove the cartridge.
  • Lightly dampen a lint-free cloth with distilled water, and then wipe the copper-colored contacts on the cartridge.
