HP ENVY Pro 6455 All-in-One Printer

Please help. I purchased an HP Envy Pro 6455 for my son to use in college. He never used the printer and lost the set up ink cartridges. I am trying to set it up so we can use it and can't get by the set up ink. This is driving me insane. No help from HP support without paying more money and nothing online about bypassing set up ink. Seems to be a way for HP to get you to spend more money. If I cant get a reply here that will help. I am going to smash this thing and buy an Epson printer.

This does not help as I do not have the Set Up Cartridges and have no idea where to get them. How can I bypass the set up ink cartridges and start using y printer I paid good money for?

Please follow the same steps with any HP ink cartridge you have installed in the printer. It need not be the set-up cartridges.
