Product: HP Tango
I accidentally threw away my setup cartridges and have been too lazy to call in to get someone to bypass this. My warranty has since expired so I have no way to use my computer until I can bypass the setup. Any help? Thanks!

See if this works. Please le me me know if it does. I found it on the internet but it was not for the Tango printer so I am guessing.
- You must be using genuine HP ink cartridges
- Open the ink cartridge access door.
- Press and hold the Wireless button for at least three seconds.
- Close the ink cartridge access door. An alignment page prints, indicating that the printer has initialized.
- If the printer does not initialize, repeat the trade override procedure until it does.
Else contact HP
