I am receiving the message "There is a problem with the printer or ink system. Turn the printer off, then on if the problem persists, contact HP. Ever since I've changed the black in I received this message. Since then I've reset my printer on many occasions and changed the black ink three times and I am still getting this message.

Welcome to the HP support community.
I understand that you are getting printer failure error, I am glad to assist you.
Reset the printer
- Reset the printer to recover from printer failures.
- With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the printer.
- Unplug the power cord from the power source.
- Wait 60 seconds.
- Reconnect the power cord to a wall outlet and to the printer.
Check for obstructions in the carriage path
- Clear obstructions from the carriage area inside the printer.
- With the printer on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
- Open the door to access the carriage inside of the printer.
- Look in the carriage path for debris such as crumpled paper or dislodged labels, and then remove any that you find.
- Use your hand to move the carriage to each side, making sure it moves freely. If the carriage is stalled or docked to one side of the printer and you cannot move it, continue with these steps.
- Close the carriage access door.
- Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer, and then turn the printer on.
