I keep getting an error message to remove the black ink cartridge and reinstall it. It is a HP 62 XL and has worked for the past month with no issues. I don't print many things for it to run out of ink. I have tried unplugging the USB cord and power cord for a few minutes, removed and reinstalled the cartridge about ten times and still receive the error message now what? I also tried downloading the latest driver.

Hi @BMucha,

 

Thank you for showing your interest in HP Support Forums.

I understand you are getting ink cartridge error message on your HP Envy printer. I'll be really glad to help you with this,

 

Have you made any changes on the printer before the issue started?

Are you using genuine HP ink cartridges?

 

Please make sure that the printer is connected directly to the wall outlet and not to the surge protector.

Remove all the ink cartridges and then try to perform a hard reset on the printer.

With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

Remove USB cable, if present.

Wait for 2-3 minutes, press and hold the power button on your printer for about 30 seconds to remove any additional charge.

Now plug back the power cable straight to a wall outlet without any surge protector or an extension cord and then plug back the power cord to the printer.

Turn on the printer and wait till warm-up period finishes and the printer is idle.

Now insert the ink cartridges and then try to print a test page and check if it works.
