Hi @Steinar3 ,
Welcome to The HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I understand you're facing an "Error 0" on your HP DeskJet 4210e All-in-One Printer, even after replacing the ink cartridges. Here's how you can resolve the issue:
1. Check for Proper Cartridge Installation
- Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source.
- Open the cartridge access door and make sure both cartridges (HP 305 Black and Tri-color) are seated properly.
- Ensure there is no protective tape left on the cartridges.
2. Clean the Contacts
- Turn off the printer and unplug it.
- Carefully remove the cartridges.
- Gently clean the copper contacts on both the cartridges and inside the printer with a lint-free cloth slightly dampened with distilled water or rubbing alcohol. Allow them to dry.
3. Reset the Printer
- Disconnect the power cable while the printer is on.
- Wait for 60 seconds.
- Plug the power cable back in and turn the printer on.
4. Check for Firmware Updates Update the firmware on an HP printer
- If the error persists, connect the printer to your computer and check for any firmware updates via the HP Smart app or the HP website.
