HP Deskjet 1050 J410 Series
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I've been using this HP Deskjet 1050 J410 for almost a decade now. Recently when I changed the black cartridge and installed a new one the black ink indicator kept on blinking the way it does when the cartridge goes empty. The cartridge is an original 802 small, compatible with my printer. I tried all the ways from unplugging the printer and plugging it while pressing the cancel and power button together for a minute to cleaning the contacts. I reset it by pressing the power button then cancel button way and even did the pressing cancel button 4 times and then copy color button stuff. Nothing worked. Please help me out. This place is under strict lockdown now and I can't get someone from the service center.  Thanks in advance.
