A friend of mine gave me her old printer and I'm having issues setting it up as it requires SETUP ink cartridges. She no longer has these and I'd like to know if there's a way I can bypass this step. I purchased HP ink cartridges to go in it they just are not the original SETUP ones. From other conversations on here it looks like this might possible? Thank you!

Hi @laurenbosse ,
Welcome to the HP Support Community
I'd like to help!
We would have to perform an OOBE reset on the printer to bypass the error
- The reset instructions are specific for your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may corrupt the device.
