"Cartridge problem" alert: Reseat each cartridge and wipe the gold contacts with a lint-free cloth.
Streaky prints: Open HP Smart and run Clean Printheads. Repeat once if streaks persist.

Firmware-blocked cartridges: HP firmware updates can sometimes reject third-party chips. If you use compatibles, disable automatic firmware updates in the HP Smart app.
