Cannot set up printer after factory reset - missing setup cartridges

[hk9009]

I had to factory reset my HP Envy 6055e printer and now it wants me to insert the setup cartridges that came with the printer, but that was used up and discarded awhile ago.

Now the printer can’t be set up and nothing will print.

Hi @hk9009,

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.

Please help us with the Printer serial number or the product number on a private message for further assistance.
