Hi @hdfghdfghdfghd 

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

If you move to a different country we need to perform a regional reset in order to make the printer work in the new region. I will surely help you with the Regional reset.

 

1. The printer should be connected using a printer USB cable to the computer.

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

3. 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.

4. Make sure HP Smart App is installed too.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.

I also have a 8210 with that issue.  I am out of warranty.  Is that an issue to get the codes?

We will help you with the regional reset, even if the printer is out of warranty, have you acquired all the required details?

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

2. You need to have the printer full feature software installed on your computer.
3. 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.
4. Make sure HP Smart App is installed too.

Please do try and let me know

I hope this helps.
