My HP printer says: 'ink cartridge depleted: Replace or press OK to continue'. But printer won't let me select "OK". How to force printer to accept?

You can't you can only press OK when it tells you the ink cartridge is low. Also watch out for the refills, HP will not accept a refilled cartridge. Personally I'm going back to Epson.

Truly a guess, but I've let a month go by with no deterioration, so I think that HP engineering solves this problem by doing an ink-feed refresh depending on the last printing date. This practice reduces the total pages that can be printed per cartridge but virtually eliminates any dry out problem.

I'm not sure how the ink cartridge might have killed the printer, but HP does program some printers to be fussy about reinstalled cartridges that the printer had previously declared empty. There are ways to reset that recognition as well as ways to easily clean printheads that may be clogged with dry ink. Search YouTube for your HP cartridge; there are numerous brief instructional videos, some more or less helpful than others e.g.,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0tm8dNeE2A

Reset ink cartridges then run maintenance on nozzles..Also see in printer utility that u see the new cartridge is installed.

I went thru the same thing. Contacted the seller and they sent me new ones and I had the same problem. I'm not happy with the cartridges OR my printer. Wish I could give you more help.

I called the seller and the answer that they gave me was to just wait until the printer says the cartridge is empty then remove it and replace it. You have to physically check the cartridges to see if there is enough ink.

I found out the HP printers have a code built in them that keeps you from being able to get them to work by refilling them, you would have to de-code that before trying it, if a repair can do this it should work. There are no instruction except what I have learned. You can try making a whole in top of the ink cartridge 1/16 drill bit then inject with a needle, only inject 1 cc don't over fill, if it don't work, it may have a code built in.

PS Make sure your printer is plugged in and turned on before you attempt to replace a cartridge. You be surprised that how some people would not know this.

If it doesn't want to print try pushing the OK button which acknowledges that you got the error message.I buy my ink from CarrotInk.com Total for all 5 cartridges $76.75I'll have to check out Office Max.

I don't recall if I had any issues like that or not. I'm an IT guy/computer nerd anyway so if I did, I fixed it immediately. With that said, I would recommend turning your printer off and then back on. Even try some different things like putting old cartridges in when printer is on and then turn it off, pull cartridges out and replace the new cartridges just before turning the printer back on. Make sure that any tape that may have been on the bottom of the cartridges is also removed. You'd be surprised how many people forget that. One thing to look at also, if the problem persists, is to check the settings on the actual printer and look at the ink level. If the ink level is showing that everything is full, as it should be, then the printer is at least detecting things that far. Hope this little bit will help, if not feel free to post back. If you end up having to post back, let us k ow what you be tried, and the specific issue you're having. This way I, or someone else, can give more accurate advice to further troubleshoot the issue. :)

Another thing you can try, (that has worked for me when ink is so low that printer will not print, yet there's still ink in cartridge), is to place a small piece of duct or masking tape over the clear part of the cartridge. That's where/how the printer itself recognizes ink levels in the cartridges.

I don't really know, but if it were my printer, I would unplug it and see if it would reset itself. If not, re-install the computer with the disc. I use mine a lot with eBay and use cheap ink, cheap paper and it does a decent job. For real quality, I use another printer. This printer seems to be a faithful work horse.

Sounds like a defective cartridge. Call HP support because they will replace it for free if they determine that is the cause.

Hello. Although I have always replaced the cartridge when the printer indicates a cartridge is empty, I think you need to have some ink in each of the cartridges for the printer to work. There is, however, a warning message that pops up quite a while before a cartridge will be empty, giving the user plenty of time to have one in reserve. You do not need to replace all the colored cartridges, just the empty one.
