When I turn on the power to this printer I get either an Ink System Failure notice with the code 0xc18a0106 or I get a Paper Jam Failure with the same error code, 0xc18a0106. There is no trace of a paper jam or other obstruction. The ink is brand new HP ink with the HP logo on each of the ink cartridges. Help.

Hello,
- Remove the ink cartridges from the printer.
- With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the printer.
- Unplug the power cord from the power source.
- Wait at least 60 seconds.
- Reconnect the power cord to a wall outlet and to the printer.
NOTE:
HP recommends plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet. - Turn the printer on.
- Reinsert the ink cartridges, and then close the ink cartridge access door.
- If you receive a prompt to print a calibration or alignment page, do so.
To palliate this incident, please follow the instructions of link HP A 'Paper Jam' Message Displays.
Do not hesitate to solicit us if necessary.
