I sure hope there is someone that can help me!  Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

 

My printer keeps saying: 

Error message. Remove and reinstall the indicated ink cartridge, making sure it is correctly installed.  If this message continues to appear, replace the indicated ink cartridge.

 

I have done this approximately 50 times.  I have followed all of the directions given in the troubleshooting page on my printer.  I tried to order a cartridge through the instant ink that we PAY for, and it won't let me.  It says that I can't order ink until I resolve the error message.  The troubleshooting page is a joke.  It keeps sending me back to the previous pages that I have already completed.  There is no place on the HP website to talk with a real human being, either through chat or in a direct email.  They DO NOT WANT you to be able to contact anyone.  Once your warranty is up, they want you to buy a new machine.

 

Does anyone have any idea how to make this error message go away so I can use the printer?  I have no more things to try and it is very frustrating that the company wants to be of no help.

 

Thank you!
