HP OfficeJet 8012 All-in-One Printer

Hello,

I recently replaced the printhead on my HP OfficeJet 8012 due to a clog in the cyan color. Now, when I turn on the printer, I receive the printhead error 62.80.A0.

The flat cables are intact, and the printhead is an original part for this printer. I tried reinstalling the old printhead, and the error did not appear.

Is there a firmware installation procedure or any other reset I can perform to make the printer accept the new printhead? I have already tried a factory reset without success.

HP staff members, how can I resolve this issue?

Thank you.
