I recently installed a new authentic HP cartridge. The display say I needed alignment but I was in a hurry to print something so I skipped. Then I wanted to go back and do it so I went to the HP Smart App
Went to Print Quality Tools > Align Printheads and I kept getting this message "New HP Cartridges Installed" and I could not go further. Well that's information not an error!
I tried to use the Virtual Assistant but it was useless.
In the end, I went to Status > Printer Status and there was a new installed cartridge message that I needed to confirm and click OK (too bad I didn't take a screenshot). Once I did that I was able to go back and continue. However, now it just says "Printer problem", not much other detail
I tried powering off and on the printer, still same thing.
I'm not sure how bad the alignment is but this is frustrating.
