"For non-hp original ink users an optional firmware update to remove dynamic security is now available for select Officejet, Officejet Pro, Officejet ProX printers."
I have bee patiently waiting for the "fix". Following the directions posted: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c05308850?openCLC=true
Step 2) "Click your HP printer model in the following table and run the downloaded firmware update file from your Internet browser."
I seem to have no options for running the download from my iternet browser.
I'm using Safari (and that's all I plan on using). When I click on the download I get an error message that says there are no applications to open the file. I've tried to right click "open with"- none of the options are internet browsers.
Can you offer any help?

That seemed to work. I have sucessfully downloaded the firmware!
