HP ENVY 5000
macOS 10.13 High Sierra

I have replaced my ink for the first time in my HP ENVY 5000 printer which was delivered by HP through their enrolled in HP instant ink, but the printer will not print as it is saying  "displaying this cartridge can only be used in a printer that is currently enrolled in HP instant ink, which it is.

I've checked online and everything is in order, very frustrated trying to chat with an automated chatline 

 

Please if anyone can help to shed some light on this issue would be amazing

Hi @imnotperfect

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

Try these steps -

 

1) Turn off the Router, Printer, and the computer/ mobile devices. 
2) Wait for 60 seconds. 
3) Turn on the Router first and wait for all the lights to stabilize. 
4) Turn on the printer and allow it to configure itself. 
5) Turn on the computer/ mobile devices.
 

Also, try updating the printer's firmware. Refer to this document for steps - HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware
