Hello Jennifer,

Are you using Linux for printing. If yes then please power on the printer and then place cartridges inside the printer. After that please install HP linux driver from http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html.

If you are not using Linux for printing then please contact HP total care for further assistence.

Thanks,
Sanjay

Thank you Sanjay...I sounded like such a fool and very embarrassed. I asked a fellow who works with my husband to come home and have a look at it and it was an easy fix for him...everything is working well now and thank you so much....
