I have an hpdeskjet printer and my ink light keeps blinking even after I put new ink in?

It will not print unless the light is off. How can I fix this?I have an hpdeskjet printer and my ink light keeps blinking even after I put new ink in?
if i were you, i'll probably try a few troubleshooting basics.


power off printer, check and ensure cartridge if properly seated and locked (you may hear a click sound after correctly placing the cartridge or there may be some sort of locking device) when all of above is done, power on printer. assuming light is not blinking anymore, print a test page for printer to realign itself.





if above does not work, go to http://www.hp.com and go to support site. find troubleshooting tips for your printer and look for similar symptoms and possible solution. hp support group will probably ask you if you did a little troubleshooting anyway.





if after doing the above the printer still fails then go ahead and make the phone call (hopefully a toll free phone call, lol)

You need to let the printer know that there is a new cartridge installed. For newer printers, you can open control panel and then printers to change the printer options and reset the cartridge information. The problem might also be due to the information that is stored on the cartridge's memory. The copper contacts on the front may only allow the cartridge to be single use (refilling the cartridge will not reset it). The cartridge can be reset by covering certain contacts on the cartridge and re-installing it in the printer. If you got a ink refill kit, the instructions included will show you how to do this.
some of hp's newer printers use a chip in them so it blocks the option of refilling cartridge but if its a new hp (none clone non refilled) i'd get in contact with hp the new cartridge has warranty even if your printer does not and they should be able to troubleshoot it with you for free or at least they will tell you to go to hps website online free support they are good with that
the same thing happened to my printer check the printing heads make sure they are clean if that doesent work buy new headers that fixed my printer they are kind of expensive though
