Changed black toner but can't now print anything. Black pages, no text. Compatible cartridge works?

[Adambede]

I have had this problem for months...  The compatible cartridge didn't last very long so I decided not to buy them again and get originals in future.  Everytime I change the black toner, from a compatible cartridge to an original, I get nothing printing except black pages.    These are usually solid black without any text.  I have sent numerous cartridges back and re-ordered just incase the cartridges were faulty (3 times now).  What I can't understand is why, when I reinstall the old (nearly used) compatible cartridge, it immediately works perfectly again. Please help - this is driving me mad and I am really close the having to buy a new machine.

@Adambede, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

By compatible ink cartridge, do you mean non HP inks?

Using the non-HP ink cartridges could damage the print mechanism. If you have already used one or more HP genuine ink cartridges and it did not work, this could be a hardware issue with the printer.

Now, you may either continue using the non-HP inks at your own discretion or reach out to the HP Technical Support team in your region regarding the service options for your printer.
