HP dynamic security - blocked my cartridges

[dfsgfdsfsfdsdsf]

I recently purchased this printer.

HP's Dynamic security has decided to brick a full set of new ink cartridges.

How do I turn this feature off? I have found info online about it for other printers, but I can't find out how to do it for this one: 

HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M479fdw

Surely HP aren't allowed to railroad you into buying only their own cartridges?
At no point when we bought the printer did the listing say "only compatible with HP cartridges" so how can they get away with selling products like this? I feel that I have been mis-sold this printer if I cannot choose which brand of cartridge I use...

Welcome to the HP Community --

I am sorry you feel you were misled.

This printer series is indeed protected with Dynamic Security that limits the type of ink / toner that can be used in the printer.

There is no legal workaround or method to change the requirement.

The Community does not make policy, we do not influence marketing by HP or other merchants, and we cannot make changes to requirements.  We are a user group.

We can -- and I will -- forward your concerns to our Moderator team.

Should the be a response, look for a message here before the agent uses other means to contact you.

The following is to help those who are interested in this series and is not intended to punish those unaware of the requirement:

For those reading -- please be aware:

A quick check of the HP Store USA shows printer has been discontinued.

The listing is still available at the HP Store
