On August 13th, 2016, I bought the HP ink box (black and tricolor) from Amazon. I didn't need to use it until now, and just found out that my printer is not recognizing this new ink. Amazon is no longer receiving this item. But I believe the product is actually sold by HP (?)
I have opened the black ink box, but the tri-color one is intact with the package. I want to know if I could negociate with HP for some sort of exchange. Getting a matched ink box for the right type of printer can be very confusing, and this is my first time making such mistake. I dont want to waste the ink boxes I just bought, but they really have no use to me. Plus, ink is quite expensive ($32). I hope to hear about what HP is able to offer me at this point. I would love to mail my ink boxes back to you! Thank you!
For your information, here is the detail of the product I bought:
HP 60 Black & Tri-Color Original Ink Cartridges, 2 Pack (N9H63FN)
Link to Amazon for product description:

I saw that you had a record of timely response to other customers in this forum. I look forward to hearing back from you soon! Thank you!

The HP SureSupply Site says the Deskjet 3050 uses HP 61 cartridges (in the USA, check for correct cartridges in other regions). HP does have an exchange program for HP unused, unopened cartridges still in warranty. I would expect that your cartridges have been removed from the original box and would not be eligible for this program.
You might consider selling the cartridges on eBay or donating them to a local school or Good Will or similar. The HP 60 cartridges are compatible with the following printers:
