I bought a printer that did not come with setup cartridges. I don’t have it hooked to a computer as I only needed it for faxing. I understand that there is a key sequence to bypass the setup cartridges. Would anyone be willing to share it with me? I only paid 30 bucks for the printer but I spent another 50ish on genuine hp ink cartridges. Thanks in advance.

Because the device is out of warranty, phone support pointed me here.

I understand your concerns.

 

This model does not have an option to bypass the setup ink cartridges. I have checked the manual as well.
