HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 1516 All-in-One Printer

Hello,

I just moved to US and brought my printer from Brazil. Today I got new ink cartridges, but they didn't work with an incompatibility error (61 instead 662). I heard that is possible to reset the region code. Would you guys help me with this issue? Wich information do you need from my side?

Hi @ GeorgeXavier

 

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.

 

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

 

The reset instructions are specific for 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 instruction 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.

Hello, 

I have the same problem (moved from EUR to US), and am desperately looking for a solution. Can't reach a HP representative over 800 number, as my serial number is unrecognized (product ID is - but only online). Please let me know how I can proceed.

Hi AndyO11,

 

I'm still waiting for a solution. The HP support agent asked me for some information about my printer and system. I gave the information, but till now I didn't get an answer about how to perform a region reset for the cartridge purchased in US.
