@Bluestemdoc, Welcome to HP Support Community,

 

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

 

The errors might display for the following reasons:

The toner cartridge is not compatible with the printer.

The toner cartridge has been protected on another printer.

Replace the affected supplies.

Purchase replacement cartridges and other supplies from the HP Store or local retailers.

Replace the incompatible toner cartridge

Replace the toner cartridge with a new toner cartridge and try to print. If the error persists, continue to the next step.

 

Restart the Printer

1. Turn off the printer.

2. Unplug the power cord from the back of the printer.

3. Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds.

4. Plug the power cord back in.

5. Turn on the printer.

 

Run HP Print and Scan Doctor (Windows only):

Update Printer Firmware (Update the firmware on an HP printer | HP® Support)

  • Go to the HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads page. Enter your printer model number and search for the latest firmware update. Follow the instructions to download and install the firmware update.
