Solution 3: Make sure you are using genuine HP print cartridges
Solution: Check to see if your print cartridges are genuine HP print cartridges.
HP recommends that you use genuine HP print cartridges. Genuine HP print
cartridges are designed and tested with HP printers to help you easily produce great
results, time after time.
NOTE: HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP supplies. Printer
service or repairs required as a result of using a non-HP supply will not be covered
under warranty.
If you believe you purchased genuine HP print cartridges, go to:

Cause: Non-HP print cartridges were being used.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
Solution 4: Check the print catridges
Solution: Check the estimated ink levels in the print cartridges.
NOTE: Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning
purposes only. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a
replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need
to replace the print cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable.
If there is ink remaining in the print cartridges, but you are still noticing a problem,
print a self-test report to determine if there is a problem with the print cartridges. If the
self-test report shows a problem, clean the print cartridges. If the problem persists,
you might need to replace the print cartridges.
For more information, see:
“
Check the estimated ink levels” on page 39
Cause: The print cartridges needed to be cleaned or there was insufficient ink.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
Solution 5: Replace the print cartridge
Solution: Replace the indicated print cartridge. You can also remove the indicated
print cartridge and print using ink-backup mode.
