I have replaced my black cartridge with the one supplied by Instant Ink. After replacement, I can no longer print black. Ink levels show full, no black prints at all.
If I put the old cartridge back in, I do get some black printed, but as expected, its running low on Ink, so quality isn't great, but, it does print something.
The 'new' cartridge I have put in was sent to me some time ago (APR 29 2023) - I can only think its age might be the problem. but I do NOT suspect this!
When I try and 'clean' the heads, HP smart doesn't complete ( I wait around 10 mins then hit cancel), and doesn't print a test page.
If the cartridge is defective, how do I get another (quickly)!
Any help would be appreciated.
