Hello, i've actually a problem with my Laser Jet Pro M203dw.
I am trying to add a new ink cartridge, but after the printer initializes, the "empty cartridge" light is still on. I have updated all possible pitotes, tried with a different ink cartridge but still cannot resolve this issue.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Welcome to the HP support community.
Clean the electric contacts on the toner cartridge
-
Open the toner cartridge access door.

Remove the toner cartridge from its slot.
-
Use a lint-free cloth to wipe the toner cartridge contact (E-label) on the top left of the toner cartridge.
NOTE:
Coffee filters work well.
