Hi,

In order to accept the local region ink cartridges, the printer have to be reset for the specific zone.

 

In order to do so you need to contact HP Support, as you may find listed below:

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02558798&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=3204464&tmp...

 

As the printer no longer entitled for a free technical support, you do entitled to get free phone support for the specific purpose as the HP ink cartridges are under warranty. Make sure you have both the 74 and 75 Genuine HP ink cartridges before contacting HP support, otherwise you will not be provided with the free phone support.

 

You may find the phone number and operation hours listed below:

Hi,

Resetting the printer to a different zone is not an action you may done by your self via the front panel.

It can only be done by a support agent using internal HP's systems.
