Hi @rmd2026,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
I'd be glad to help you. Please note that HP Printers use different ink cartridges in different regions, and to use the ink cartridges sold in the current region, we need to change the region settings on the printer.
I request you to please get back to me with the following information, so that I can help you change the region settings on the printer.
Do you still have the ink cartridges for both regions?
Do you have a printer USB cable? OR Connecting via Wifi?
Please note: Regional Reset can only be performed only on a Windows Pc.
Do you have the printer's full-feature software and drivers & HP App installed on your PC?
Hope this helps!
Thanks!
I'm an HP Employee.

Hi @rmd2026,
Thank you for sharing the details.
The printer regionalization reset can only be performed using a Windows PC. Since you currently have an Apple Mac, please arrange temporary access to a Windows computer from a family member, friend, or colleague.
Once a Windows PC is available:
- Connect the Windows PC to the same Wi-Fi network as the printer.
- Install the printer’s full-feature software and drivers on the Windows PC.
- Add the printer and confirm that it is detected.
- Keep the genuine ink cartridges for both regions available.
- Let us know once the setup is complete, and we will provide the next regionalization-reset steps.
The HP app installed on the Mac cannot be used to complete this particular reset process.
Please do not share the printer serial number, Wi-Fi password, or other personal information publicly.
Take care and have a good day.
I'm an HP Employee.
