HP ENVY 5030 All-in-One Printer

Hello everyone, 

My HP ENVY 5030 from Europe doesn't work with ink cartridges from USA. I'm getting a "The indicated  cartridges are not intended for use of this printer" message. 

I tried all of the troubleshooting advice from HP and nothing helped? 

Do I need to restore my printer to factory defaults and then download the updates in America? Could it be a software issue? 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks J

Welcome to HP Support Community! 

 

We need to perform a regional reset on the printer to resolve this issue.  

 

The reset instructions are specific for 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 instruction to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.  

 

In order to access your private messages, click the private message icon on the upper right corner of your HP Community profile, next to your profile Name or simply click on this link. 

 

Keep me posted. 

If this helps, please mark the public post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.

Cheers.
