HP OfficeJet 5212 All-in-One Printer

I purchased ink cartridges for my hp printer in 02/2023.  The black cartridge smeared any text I tried to print.  Today I bought another new #63 black cartridge and the problem is solved.  I attempted to return the defective cartridge to Walmart where I had bought it but they would not accept it as more than 30 days had elapsed since my purchase.  The defective cartridge is dated 2024/07/08.  I would like a replacement.
