Third-party cartridge is stuck in my printer

[LAB26]

I purchased EZINk 30A cartridges for my HP M203dw printer -- double-checked that it's the correct kind -- and now the cartridge is stuck and the door won't close properly (which means I can't print). 

Any help on how to get this cartridge out of my printer?

Okay, I figured it out. You have to a) take a breath and do a little/quick Zen pull to get this monumentally stuck cartridge out, and then b) read the directions and realize that the orange "Remove" strip is removed, c) forgive yourself for not reading the directions, d) re-insert the cartridge, and e) print.
