Bypassing setup-

[D4n1]

Hi. I bought a HP Envy 7830, but accidentally threw away the starter-cartridges that came with it. Ended up buying new, original HP cartridges, but ran into a problem when i tried to set it up, as an error message appears saying I need the starter ones for first-time setup. Is there a way around this or a fix?

Hi @D4n1,

Welcome to HP Support Community!

To bypass the message on the printer the only option left is to perform an OOBE reset and re-initialize the printer. 

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.
