How do I disable the cartridge protection on my printer?

The cartridge protection can be disabled as shown starting on page 36 (PDF page 47) of the user guide here.

 

Note:  turning off cartridge protection will not affect the cartridge currently in the printer, it only applies to future cartridges that are installed.  If a cartridge has already been marked as protected changing the setting will not change the protection for that cartridge.  Also, turning off cartridge protection does not disable the check for cartridges that have been protected in another printer.  Once a cartridge has had its cartridge protection set it will only be usable in the original printer.
