Hi. I'm trying to replace the original HP black toner cartridge. When I pull on the blue handle, it releases on the right side but remains locked in place on the left side. Any suggestions on how I can remove the cartridge? The printer works well otherwise. Anyone have any suggestions?

Hi @Gabexyz,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I see there is an issue with the cartridges being stuck in the printer. Please do not worry. I am here to help you.
- Please Open the front door.
- Grasp the blue handle on the toner cartridge drawer, and then pull out the drawer.
- Grasp the handle on the toner cartridge, and then pull the toner cartridge straight up to remove it.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
