HP Officejet Pro 8625 e-All-in-One Printer

My printer has the following message: There is a problem with the printer or ink system. Turn the printer off, then on. If the problem persists contact HP.

 

I have turned the printer off and on several times, and unplugged it and plugged it back in. No results.
