HP DeskJet 2652 All-in-One Printer
Microsoft Windows 11

My old HP2562 cannot connect to wifi (everything available is 5G and it can't use that). I would like to print via USB.  Unfortunately when I try to print via USB, the error message is that the printer needs to be linked to HP Instant Ink.  I am unable to do this because the printer and wifi are incompatible (as explained).

 

The cartridges are brand new, but the screen on the front shows their status as empty and the icon is blinking.

Is there any workaround to convince my printer that the ink cartridge are indeed full?
