Hi @Ramy94,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

I understand you want to reset the region of your HP DeskJet 2130 All-in-One Printer so it can accept HP 123 cartridges (used in Egypt and the Middle East). You’ll need to follow a specific process that requires HP support assistance. Here's what you need to do:

To perform a printer region reset, you need to meet the following conditions:

1. The printer should be connected using a printer USB cable to the computer.

2. You need to have the printer's full feature software installed on your computer.

3. You need to have all the cartridges either from the region/country from where the printer was purchased originally, or the new region/country to which you want to reset it.

4. Make sure the HP Smart App is installed too.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care, and have an amazing day!
