Welcome to the HP Support Community.
HP does not recommend to use refilled ink cartridges as it damages the printhead. However, you may try the steps from here: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c05365403#:~:text=HP%20Instant%20Ink%20subscribers%3A%20To,ind....
If the issue persists, please try genuine, non-refilled HP ink cartridges.
Let me know if this helps.

The printer will work as long as i use new original cartridge. But i want to refill my original cartridge because of financial reason. You see i will use it only for the printing needs of my 5 year old daughter for her studies. The price of original hp cartridge is very much higher here in canada compared to the price in saudi arabia which i worked before. Ever since, i preferred to use HP printer because i find it reliable compared to other brand of printer. I hope you could provide me solution so that my printer would accept original but refilled cartridges. Thank you very much.
