I had bought a new color cartridge August 2021 and only printed 2 pages that had 1 single line in green everything else was blank in.  no other color pages where printed until today, November 2021 and printer page indicates color cartridge is low.  I look at the ink bar on the printer and indeed it indicates the color cartridge is low.  How is this possible, I only printed two pages as in august as indicated above an d the cartridge is already low.  nobody else uses this printer.  please HP explain how a ink cartridges runs out of ink so quickly.  cartridge's are not cheap to be buying a new cartridge everytime I need to print 2 pages on color, cartridges should last a lot longer!!

 

HP Please explain!

Welcome to the HP support community.

 

I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).

If you are unfamiliar with how the Community's private message capability works, you can learn about that here.

 

Thank you for visiting the HP Support Community.
