Recognition of cartridges depends on several issues. Check and clean the metal contact points on the printer cartridge slot. Use rubbing alcohol on a q-tip and pat dry. Do the same on the ink cart. Any oil/film on the contacts can interfere with the communication network of the printer. Sometimes, printers just reject cartridges, mainly if you use off brand products. Naturally HP wants you to use their cartridges! Other than that, you must use HP Software updates for the computer and also, update each HP Printers FIRMWARE. Lots of folks forget that!

If the cartridges are new, make sure you removed the, (sometimes clear), tape that the manufacturer places over the shinny metallic ink distribution slots, (shinny objects on the underside of the cartridges, like the previous answers have described). Otherwise, make sure the cartridges are the correct model for your printer, and I use a dab of alcohol on my q-tips to clean off old dried ink from the contacts. The contacts are very obvious once the cartridges are removed. Make sure to unplug the printer once you have removed the cartridges to access the contacts, before cleaning. And be gentle with the contacts, rub gently. And clean the cartridge contacts and ink dispensing slots as well, and gently as well. As previously mentioned, you should get ink on the q-tip when cleaning the ink distribution slots. Three colors, yellow blue and red from the color cartridge and black from the black cartridge. So clean the contacts first, then do the ink dispensers last to avoid adding ink to the contacts with a ink soggy q-tip. Good luck and be gentle.
