I just installed a brand new HP61 black ink cartridge into my printer and it says Ink Cartridge Problem(s) The following ink cartridge must be replaced and shows the sideways two triangles indicating the black cartridge.
I unplugged the printer while it was on from the back and then unplugged it from the wall and waited 15 second before plugging it back in and turning it back on. This did not work.
I then removed the black ink cartridge, unplugged the printer from the back and and using a q-tip that I had moistened with distilled water gently cleaned both the brand new ink cartridges copper contacts and the contacts in the printer itself. I waited 15 minutes and replaced the ink cartridge and received the same message.
