Printer refuses to print except a printer information page, that says:
 
your HP+ printer must be set up using the HP Smart app. Visit 123.hp.com
to download the app and complete the guided setup. Any pages you have
printed were intended for setup and have been exhausted. If you
completed setup,  turn your printer off for at least a minute, then turn
it back on. Wait a few minutes to let your printer status refresh and
try to print again. visit hp.com/plus-support for additional setup help.

How can I make this blasted printer print again?
 
If it is contract a support contract with HP to feed me supplies, I will
take an axe and destroy the printer.

Back in the beginning of July, HP announced the end of their "HP+" and
"Instant Ink" programs.
(See https://tech.co/news/hp-e-series-instant-ink-discontinued)

While existing contracts will be honoured, HP has withdrawn their "e"
series printers from the market (so the article says), and will not
activate any new HP+/Instant Ink accounts.

Perhaps your printer has got caught up in the changeover from subscription
model ink to otc ink. Do you know if it performed any sort of firwmare
update recently?
