Hi @randazo,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd be glad to help you! 

 

Have you restarted the printer and reseated the cartridges multiple times?

Are you using genuine HP ink?

 

The procedure to resolve the issue you are facing is to do a hard reset. 

Recommend you to perform a hard reset on the printer. 

Disconnect the power cord of the printer.

Leave it idle for a minute.

If you are using a surge protector, disconnect it and connect the printer to the wall outlet directly. 

Turn the printer ON and check. 

Reseat the cartridges. 

Clean the cartridge contacts. Allow the cartridges to dry for 10 minutes before installing it back on the printer. 

Try a different cartridge, or contact our phone support for the service options.
