HP OfficeJet 3830 All-in-One Printer

Hi!  I moved back to the US from Germany and need to regionally reset my OfficeJet 3830. I have the cable, the software is downloaded and I have the ink for this region. I just need to know the steps to regionalize this printer back to the US. Thank you so much. Your help is appreciated!

Hi @Bren_E ,


Welcome to the HP Support Community

 

I'd like to help!

 

I understand you moved, and the printer is not accepting the new region cartridges.

 

NOTE: regional reset is attempted on a best-effort basis, it might not work on all printers. 

If this does not work, we cannot re-attempt it as it may brick the printer

 

 

We need to perform a regional reset on the printer to resolve this issue.

 

The reset instructions are specific to 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 instructions to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.

 

In order to access your private messages, click the private message icon on the upper right corner of your HP Support Community profile, next to your profile Name or simply click on this link.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
