I just replaced the toner in my printer with the Toner that came with my subscription and the printer app is telling me that the toner cartridge is incompatible. I have power cycled the printer and my laptop. My laptop OS has been updated as well. Please advise.

Hi @dany6,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

I understand you're experiencing an issue with your printer that has an ink toner error.

I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, I'm here to help you today.

 

Please follow the steps below to fix the issue.

 

A) Perform a power drain.

 

1) Take out the cartridges

2) Unplug the power cord from the printer & wall.

3) Press and hold the power button down for 15 seconds and release the power button, wait for about 30 seconds.

4) Plug the power cord back into the printer and wall, ensure the printer is plugged into the wall & not into a surge protector.

5) Insert the cartridges back into the printer.

Remove the cartridges > Unplug the power cord > Wait for 30 seconds > Plug the power cord back in > Insert the cartridges

 

B) Kindly refer to the steps on this link to update the printer firmware and let me know if that resolves the issue.

 

C) Refer to the steps on this link to further troubleshoot.

 

D) If the issue still persists, refer to the steps on this link to restore factory defaults and let me know if that resolves the issue.

 

Please mark this post as “Accepted Solution” if the issue is resolved and if you feel this reply was helpful click “Yes”.

 

I hope this helps

Take care and have a good day

I tried those. Now I tried the factory reset. Now I cannot connect my printer to the wifi so cannot get past the "printer setup" in the HP Smart app. Meanwhile, on the printer, it is still flashing the Error 11 for incompatible toner cartidge.
