Use new cartridges for setup

[boomerams]

I haven't used my printer in a while but tried to use it a couple of minutes ago and keep getting the "Use new cartridges for setup" error message that won't let me do anything. I did notice a recent update notice on the printer shortly before this started happening if that matters but I have tried all the troubleshooting steps from cleaning the entire printer out to doing a reset of the printer by unplugging and waiting a few minutes and still not able to get this to work. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Wow, no help huh!?!? That's nice, it's great owning a printer that doesn't work and is a giant paper weight when I need it. Sorry, but not sorry for this comment.

This is just absolutely rediculous HP, seriously. Tried finding another way of getting help but everything leads to a virtual assistant that is of no help with it's broken down to barney style type of stupidity and everytime time I try to contact support I can never get any further than a webpage telling me my printers warranty is expired. This should have nothing to do with my warranty at all. This problem occurred after an automatic update that is REQUIRED when using HP instant ink. So, basically, HP pushed a required update to my printer making my printer useless and then pretty much tells me ...well, we screwed up your printer and it's your fault for letting your warranty expired so good luck finding any way of getting help... Outstanding business practices HP. Never again will I purchase anything under the HP name. Rant out!!!

Already tried an oobe reset, but will try again................nope, didn't work as I just tried again twice switching it back and forth.

Could you re-enable Web Services on your printer and add it back to your HP Connected account.

Let's disable webservices and re-enable it

--->Touch on the wifi icon ((i)) on the printer, and take down the IP address
--->Open a web browser (ex Chrome or Mozilla) and type in the printer's IP
---> click on webservices and remove webservices and re-enable it

Let me know!

As this is a hardware issue, I’d recommend you contact HP Phone Support in your region regarding service options for your printer.

Follow the instructions below to reach them:

1) Click on this link - https://support.hp.com/us-en/contact-hp

2) Select your product type below.

3) Enter the serial of your device. 

4) Select the country from the drop-down. 

5) Select the chat or get phone number options based on your preferences. 

6)Fill the web-form and proceed further.

If you are having trouble navigating through the above options, it's most likely because the device is out of warranty. If yes? please send me a private message with the region you are contacting us from. Check next to your profile name, you should see a little blue envelope, please click on it.
