I am sorry you are stuck.
There is no legal method to bypass the security used to protect the printer from non-HP ink cartridges.
Said another way -- The type of help you seek is not available here.
Even were it available or effective, our Community Rules of Participation forbid our providing such information.

The indicated cartridges have been blocked by the printer firmware because they contain a non-HP chip or non-HP circuitry. This printer is intended to work only with new or reused cartridges that have new or reused HP chips or circuitry.
Replace the indicated cartridges to continue printing. For more information, go to www.hp.com/learn/ds.

Note:
HP ENVY Inspire 7200 and 7900 series printers: Use of non-HP cartridges with modified or non-HP electronic circuitry might cause the printer to reject Original HP cartridges and reused, remanufactured, and Refilled cartridges that reuse HP electronic circuitry. From the printer control panel, go to Setup > Tools > Restore Defaults to continue printing.
