Desk jet 5075 "The cartridge can only be used in the printer where it was used for the first time"

[Tone2]

On startup the printer's display (DeskJet 5075) shows that the marked cartridge (black) can only be used in the printer where it has been used for the very first time. Printing is blocked.

Well, this is the same printer (I only owe one!) and the same cartridge which I had used for a few weeks alreday - I print only when needed, I see this message for the first time - at a glance it seemed to be a sales trick...

What shall I do? How can I bridge the blockage?

Thanks.
