I bought a printer in Panama (Central America) and uses 954 cartridges (because of the region). I'm now living in Canada and here the store sold me 952 ink cartridges (which the box says is compatible with my printer 7740) but I get an error message on the printer. I can't find any place to buy 954 ink cartridges. The store won't take the 952 cartridges back because the box has been opened. How can I change the region? Thank you.

Hi @CarlosB12,
Welcome to the HP Support Community
I'd like to help!
I understand you moved and the printer is not accepting the new region cartridges.
We need to perform a regional reset on the printer to resolve this issue.
The reset instructions are specific to your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may brick the device.
I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instructions to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.
