HP OfficeJet 9012e All-in-One Printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a HP officejet pro 9012e that has been working, but is out of warranty.  I went to clean printer head contacts.  Now message appears, that I need to install the setup cartridges, that are long gone.  Cannot access anything on the printer at all.

Hi @Mrwhiskers50,

Welcome to the HP support community.


I understand you have trouble with the printer, where it's asking you to use the setup cartridges, and you no longer have them. To bypass the issue, we need to have the original HP ink cartridges. Do you have the new set of HP ink cartridges with you?

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

Here is the link to find the product serial number: - Click here
