@Rathdog63, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
I understand you are not able to use the printer due to this error. Kindly perform the steps mentioned in this document - Error Indicates Faulty Printhead
If the error persists, I'm afraid, it seems like a hardware failure. I'd not recommend replacing the printhead as it may or may not resolve this issue and a printhead will cost as much as a new printer depending on its availability.
To buy the printhead, contact HP Store or local shops.
Keep me posted for any other assistance.
