Product: HP DesignJet Z6 44-in PostScript Printer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
My plotter will print a test page, however, it will not plot a drawing. It says Matte Black ink cartridge Expired". I have ALL HP ink cartridges. The expiration on the Matte Black cartridge is 2024/02/23. All cartridges are > 67% full. It plotted a drawing 2 days ago with no issues. What do I need to do to get the plotter up and running again?
