Hi @MJ19662,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
Disabling the Ink Cartridge Protection feature on an HP Photosmart 7525 printer can allow you to use refilled or third-party ink cartridges without encountering issues. Here's how you can disable this feature:
Disabling Ink Cartridge Protection
Access the Printer's Control Panel:
- On the printer's touchscreen, tap the "Setup" icon (it often looks like a wrench or gear).
Navigate to the Printer Maintenance or Settings:
- Look for options like "Printer Maintenance," "Preferences," "Tools," or "Settings."
Find the Ink Cartridge Protection Setting:
- Within the settings, find an option related to "HP Cartridge Protection" or "Cartridge Settings."
Disable the Protection:
- Select the option to turn off or disable "HP Cartridge Protection." This setting may also be labeled as "Cartridge Protection" or similar.
Confirm Changes:
- Confirm your selection if prompted and exit the settings menu.
Restart the Printer:
- For the changes to take effect, it's a good idea to restart the printer.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
