The ink access door has a sticker that says black 950, color 951 So I ordered Genuine HP ink 951-tricolor.
When inserted, the printer returns this error message: "The installed cartridges are not compatible with this printer"
Looking at the side of the box, it says :
HP Office Jet 8600
HP Office Jet Pro 251dw 276dw 8100
8610 8615 8620 8625 8630
So why does the printer say 951 and then when I get the ink, the package lists the 8600 NON-PRO but not my PRO!!
Are the 8600 and 8600 Pro so different that they take different ink?
How can I get ink for the 8600 Pro? What number do I use if I can not see the side of the box before ordering?

So what are these Z10 numbers? I can not find ANY cartridges with these Z10 numbers on them.
This is what is on my access door:
No mention of Z10. Even when I include the Z10 in my search, there never is any that show Z10 on the box. I've always and only ordered 950 or 951 (no Z10).
So where can I find these mysterious Z10 cartridges?
