Hello,
Got the Printer from a private sale and just found out the printer was purchased in South America and I am in North America.
I got the 952 ink cartridges and the printer does not recognize it, the cartridges that were in there were labeled 954 but those can't be found and purchased in North America.
Do you have the ink cartridges for both regions? I only have the US version (952)
Do you have a printer USB cable or is it connected wirelessly? Cable
Do you have the printer full feature software or the HP smart app and drivers installed on your PC? YES
If you meet the above conditions then let me know the following details:
1) The operating system of your PC, is it Windows or Mac? Window's 10
2) Confirm the printer model. HP Officejet pro 7740
