HP Tango X

My HP Tango X printer did not come with the SETUP cartridges that are needed. How do I bypass the SETUP cartridge requirement? Taking it back to the retailer isn't an option as I purchased it as ex-display about 6 months ago. I do currently have HP303 cartridges in the printer but it will obviously not let me print! I understand there may be a reset option?

Hi @ajb17,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

To Bypass Using Setup Cartridges for HP Tango X the only option left is to perform an OOBE reset  SETUP cartridges bypass and re-initialize the printer. 

 

The reset instructions are specific to 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 instructions 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.

 

Let me know if this helps.
