When replacing ink cartridges in you Hewlett Packard printer, occasionally the original or remanufactured HP ink cartridge will not be recognised. The most common Ink Cartridge Problem errors being ““The Following Ink Cartridge must be replaced” or “Remove and reinstall the indicated ink cartridge”. Whilst this can normally be resolved with some simple troubleshooting, it can be difficult to determine which cartridge your printer has a problem with.
