My printer was working perfectly and then I got this random missing Printerhead - not detected message. I have tried the suggested methods for fixing but still not working. The black was running low - so replaced it but still no good. The cost of a new Printerhead is close to a new printer - and I love my printer. Everything in printer seems to be working. Do I need a new Printerhead???

I have an OfficeJet 8630 - anyone notice the "printhead Missing" coming up on a lot of printers just recently? Can this be a Windows Update issue? I just updated Windows within the last week and all of a sudden got this message today. Why are the messages coming up all of a sudden? I'm on Windows 11

My printer (HP Officejet Pro 8600 e-All-in-One was working fine...printed a page. A few minutes later I went to print another page and received the Printhead is missing error message. I attempted the steps above and am still having the issue. I realize my printer is old and out of warranty but up until this, it has been working great. I just bought new ink cartridges so hate to just waste them for a new printer.
Any suggestions?
