HP Envy 5646 Cartridge problem

I have had this printer since October 2016 and although I replaced the black ink with a genuine HP cartridge, I keep getting Ink cartridge problem, I replaced it with a non genuine cartridge same error message. Is this a common occurrence, is it reasonable to expect an exchange or refund. I haven't been able to use this printer in over two weeks now. Any suggestions...... I have followed the HP step by step guide to no avail.

    Did you try the non-genuine cartridge first by any chance?

    What is the exact error message you get?

    Have you followed the steps here - http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04326733 particularly resetting the printer?

    Has anybody got the fix for life for this Time bomb that HP put into it's printers. I feel quite cheated that I can't use recycled cartridges

    Warranty fix? (Assuming the problem first occurred with HP pukka ink.)
