Hi
I recently cancelled HP instand ink, and now my printer really won't work. The web sevices button is flashing amber, and the instant ink icon is flashing as well. Now the advice is to press the information button twice and it will sort it, but it has not worked at all. I've also tried printing from my phone, and again, that doesn't work, so it is definitely the printer that is refusing to work.
Please, any suggestions?
