951XL Yellow Cartridges
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

 

I bought a 951XL cartridge pack (legit HPs) at Costco.

When my current cartridges ran out, I switched them all for the 3 CMY I bought from Costco.

Bad surprise: I got the message saying: "One or more cartridges appear to be damaged.  Yellow. Remove them and replace with new cartridges"

I then called HP tech support to know if I could get switch the damaged cartridge for a new one.

Another bad surprise: Even if the warranty date on the cartridge is 2018/02, I was told on the phone that since my Officejet 8600 is not supported anymore, they cannot open a case to change my cartridge!

 

Due to the cost of these cartridges, it is bugging me for simply going back to Costco and buy another pack. Also, I thought of going back to Costco for a refund but they will probably not accept my return since they will not be able to know if I used the cartridge or not....

 

Can someone help me with this?

 

thanks

 

Franck

The cartridges do have a warranty, and it is independent of the printer warranty.  I will ask to have your case escalated.

 

Edit - You might try the troubleshooting steps in the document here.
