HP and Corel driving me nuts

I stopped by my parent's house today to see why my dad is able to print something in Corel Quattro Pro but not in Corel Wordperfect. We've managed to figure out that his refilled ink cartridges in the Hewlett Packard Deskjet 3930 are telling Wordperfect that the printer is out of ink, even though it isn't. Has anyone else run into this problem, and is there someway to tell Wordperfect to stop checking the ink level? Or is there a way to convince the HP printer that there really is ink?

Why Corel has one program ask the ink level but not the other is driving me crazy.

And yes, we can copy the Wordperfect document into Quattro Pro, but then it takes forever to print (another problem I don't understand).

Mom's solitaire game is coming along just fine.
