HP OfficeJet 5255 printing blank pages

$

I purchased a new printer yesterday, if it's relevant - it was the display.  It came with ink and the technician told me it will work and don't replace it yet. 

 

I got home and installed it. Seemed successful.  Wifi worked right away, etc. When I printed a test page, it was blank.  I went to the HP website to update any and all drivers/software, etc that was available. 

 

Still printing blank pages. I have done a powercycle - a few times. Same issue. I have uninstalled the drivers/software, etc. and reinstalled. Same issue.  At least it's still recognizing the printer?! 

 

I uninstalled/reinstalled the PRINTER and all drivers/software, etc ... again.  Same issue - blank pages.

 

I did all cleaning/diagnostics as part of the HP Smart App and on the printer itself.  Still prints blank pages. 

 

I googled....and cleaned the printer heads multiple times (video said they could be clogged).  Eventually VERY VERY little ink printed on the page. VERY LITTLE. But, still obviously having an issue.  I then notice, i wasted half of the black doing all of this! (Would be worth it if I could get it to work!)

 

So. Now I am stuck.  I cannot find an HP Phone Support to call. Only virtual agent (which I did in the beginning - thus all the driver downloads, etc.) I also have a product warranty that I purchased but I cannot register it until 3 days after purchase.  So, I have no one to call.  HELP!

 

Do I just buy new cartriges? Really didn't want to do that. But I will if it's needed.  Google seemed to have three options for a "fix" : 1) replace ink, 2) update drivers, 3) clogged printer heads.... please help. I am frustrated as I needed this printer to work ASAP.
