HP OfficeJet Pro 8720 All-in-One Printer

After purchasing and replacing a total of 2 yellow cartridges, the Printer still gives me the same message:  "There is a problem with the supply system.  Try replacing the affected cartridge with a different non-empty cartridge." 

 Since I doubt HP is now selling empty print cartridges, I must assume the printer is not able to identify a new cartridge as "full".  Anyone have an idea where I can start, to fix the problem?   I love this printer.  It has been the best printer I have ever owned.   

I either have a printer cartridge problem;  HP has switched printer cartridges; or, the latest and greatest Microsoft update has "deep-6-ed" my printer.  Any thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated.  

I live on a small island in the far southern Caribbean.  There is NO HP printer repairman here, that I know of...

Thanks.
Mary

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Let's try to reset the Printer here:

 

Reset the product

  • With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
  • Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
  • Wait at least 60 seconds.
  • Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
  • Reconnect the power cord to the printer.
  • Turn the printer on. HP recommends plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet.

Also, try connecting the Printer to a different wall outlet directly.

 

Also, try a firmware update: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c02919168

 

Let me know if this helps.
