Help! HP Printer from Dubai – Cartridge Issue in India

[JacobJensen]

Hey folks,

I’ve got an HP printer that I bought in Dubai, but now I’m in India. The printer takes HP 652 cartridges as per the label on the printer, but I can't seem to find them anywhere here.

Is there a way to use the cartridges that are available in India instead? Maybe some kind of region reset or workaround?

Would really appreciate any advice or tips. 

I tried reaching out to HP support, but I haven’t been able to get past the virtual assistant to talk to an actual support rep. Super frustrating.

If anyone’s been through this or has any tips, I’d really appreciate the help. Thanks in advance!

Hi @JacobJensen,

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.  

To access your private messages, simply click the private message icon on the upper right corner of your HP Support Community profile, next to your profile name.

To perform a printer region reset you need to meet the following conditions: 

  

 

1. You need to have the printer full feature software installed on your computer. 

2. You need to have all the cartridges either from the region/country from where the printer was purchased originally or the new region/country to which you want to reset it to. 

3. Make sure HP Smart App is installed too.
