I have tried for 2 weeks to solve this issue. Despite removing the printer and re-adding it, reinstalling software, restoring factory settings, cleaning printer and installing 2 brand new HP cartridges I still get the same error message. I have even disabled HP cartridge protection but nothing works.
This is my last option before I throw it out and buy another printer (which will not be HP).
Can anyone help please? Is there nothing else I can try?
Grateful for any assistance.

@AndyW68, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
I understand you are not able to print due to this error. Make sure you have tried the steps mentioned in this document - HP Printer Does not Print and Error Indicates Faulty Ink Cartridge
This printer supports printing in single-cartridge mode. Insert one ink cartridge at a time to identify the defective ink cartridge.
If you have used more than 1 ink cartridge and have the same error, I'm afraid this is a hardware issue with the printer. Please reach out to the HP Support in your region regarding the service options for your printer.
If the printer is out of warranty, I suggest you upgrade the printer. You may visit Hp Store to check the available printers.
Keep me posted for any other assistance.
