@1Floribunda, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

I understand the ink cartridge is not working right. Which of the ink cartridge has this error?

This printer supports printing in single cartridge mode. Insert one cartridge at a time to identify the defective ink cartridge.

 

Perform the steps mentioned in this document - HP Printer Does not Print and Error Indicates Faulty Ink Cartridge

Make sure the plastic tape if any, is removed from the new ink cartridge before placing it in the printer.

 

Update the printer firmware

If the error persists, please reach out to the HP Technical Support team in your region regarding the replacement options for the defective ink cartridge. 

You may create a case on the website to obtain a case number if required. Kindly watch this video to know how.

 

Keep me posted for any other assistance.
