Any help will be appreciated.

@Paul1848, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

I understand you are not able to print due to this error. This is a pretty old printer and support options are limited.

 

Kindly perform the steps mentioned in this document to resolve this issue - Resolving 'Ink System Failure', 'System Supply Problem' Errors

 

If the error persists, I suggest you upgrade the printer. You may visit Hp Store to check the available printers.

 

For more info on resolving 0x errors, refer to - '0xc19a0005' or Similar Error Code Displays

 

Keep me posted for any other assistance.
