A pox on printers with DRM cartridges and all their works. We binned ours a couple of years back in favour of an Epson something-or-other. It's not exactly the world's greatest printer, but it has two absolutely killer features - one, it has four ink reservoirs that you refill from (non-DRM!) squeezy bottles of ink that are cheap, and two, once in there the ink lasts for absolutely ages.

Like OP's, that printer took an absolute caning during the pandemic as both kids' schoolwork was constantly spewing out of the thing, and I marvel at how much money it saved us.
