HP Envy 6055
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

 The printer stopped printing in the middle of a page so I replaced both cartridges.  The only thing it will print is two icons on the left side of the page, one is an envelope with a tear drop? and the other is possibly an internet symbol with a red circle with a dash inside.  HP scan print doctor  said everything is fine and printed a colorful page, however the black was not very bright.  The printer would not print a page from my computer.  Not happy at all with this Envy. I am not signed up for the cartridge purchase.  I do not have the printer on a wireless connection.  I purchase the HP cartridges from an office supply store.

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.

 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I understand the printer is not working correctly after replacing ink cartridges. 

  • Are you using HP genuine ink cartridges?
  • Have you tried cleaning the copper contacts on the ink cartridges? Click here to know how to clean the ink cartridges. 

Try the below suggestions as well -

Reset the product

  • With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
  • Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
  • Wait at least 60 seconds.
  • Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
  • Reconnect the power cord to the printer.
  • Turn the printer on. HP recommends plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet.

 Also, try updating the printer's firmware -HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware 

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
