Printer Help for HP Officejet Pro 8600 - "General Printer Error"

[AManning1]

Hello guys,

I hope everyone is doing well!  Is someone able to assist with this 'General Error' I am receiving on my HP Officejet Pro 8600?  I checked the ink and cartridges, and everything looks good inside.  Any suggestions are helpful.  This printer worked like a charm, and then one day I got this message out of the blue.  I followed the instructions, unplugged everything, and turned it off and on over the past several days. 

Once I'm back online..... it goes right back to this same "Printer Failure" error message:

Make sure you are using HP ink cartridges. Insert one ink cartridge at a time and check for the error.

Use the old ink cartridges and check if the error persists.
