We purchased a HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283fdw whilst living in Canada. We just moved to the uk and I have a 207x toner cartridge but it says it only uses 206? Can I change the region as I can’t even buy 206 cartridges here.
thanks!

Hi @Helppleaseuk,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I will surely help you with the Regionalisation.
To perform a printer region reset you need to meet the following conditions:
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.

Hello - I put the new cartridges in but it didn't do anything. Where in the menu do I change the region? Can you please give me step by step instructions once the cartridges are in? I have no idea what / how to change the region. Thanks!
