My Hp A636 Won't Print Even Tho I Have Changed Print Cartidge.

I have had my HP A636 printer in storage for a while. I brought it out and plugged it into my Windows 10 computer. It says I need drivers but the website at HP doesn't find the printer and will not download drivers. I replaced the cartridge with one that was kept sealed but I cannot get it to print anything. I went through the cleaning cycle 3 times and alignment twice. What do I need to do to get this printer to work again?
