Problems during operation and methods for their solution

In rare cases, but it happens that at the beginning or during the operation of the 952XL Ink cartridges combo pack, error notifications may appear. And we will present the solution to the most common errors below.

“Not HP Ink” notice

If you installed a container and a message like “Cartridge / Ink from another manufacturer” appears, click the OK or “Continue” button and start printing again.

Fixing the “Out of Ink” Message

First, try taking the HP Ink 952 XL combo pack out of the printer and putting it back in place, ensuring it fits properly into the slot. If the error has not disappeared, click OK or “Continue” and continue the printing process.

Error notifications

This problem can be resolved by going to the HP website under the “Support” section and, from there, going to “Software and Drivers” and “Printers.” After selecting the desired printer model, you must download the latest firmware version. The printer will instantly recognize the container as soon as it is installed.

If this does not solve the problem, the contact pins may have become deformed (often, they can be bent). It can be corrected using a tool. After removing the deformation, the contact should freely attach to the container chip. If you find dust or small debris on the connections, drawing it by wiping the contacts with a soft, lint-free cloth is recommended. Then change the container, connect the printer, and you can start printing.

How to fix poor print quality?

The quality is significantly reduced when the printing head is clogged with debris. This clogging occurs when a different type of ink is used each time. To fix this problem, you need to turn on the print head cleaning process and do it several times to remove any particles of dried ink. The cleaning process is launched in the Settings – Services section.

If even cleaning the print heads did not improve the quality, the cause may be a head failure. In this case, you will have to contact a support specialist, and they will instruct you on what needs to be done.

Removing it from the printer

To get the HP 952XL combo 4 pack out of the printer, you need to open the door, providing access to the container. Wait to remove the cartridge until the printer carriage stops. Then lightly press down on the released printer and remove it from the carriage.

Recommendations for installing it

If you want your HP 952 XL 4 pack installed correctly and without failure, follow some rules.

Please do not touch the ink nozzles, as they may become clogged with fine dust and debris, making it difficult for ink to pass through the nozzles, which may fail during the use of the container.

When installing a container in a printer, you should not try to install it by force – if you do everything right, installation is easy – get into the installation slots in the printer.

Do not touch the contacts inside the printer, as this may result in malfunction or damage.

According to the recommendations, if it is impossible to fix the error, then contact a specialist or the Support Service and do not try to fix it yourself.
