I have a couple issues that are preventing me from using this printer. I bought this printer probably 5 years or more ago because my printer at the time was acting up can you make money off of the and this one was on sale and it was exactly the same as the printer I had. Well I messed around with the older printer and it started working again so I thought well I'll just run it till it dies. It lasted until 2 weeks ago so I was very excited because I had a printer in the closet just like it okay. I went to set it up and the setup ink was missing.

So problem number one missing setup Inc

Problem number two it will not let me set up the printer without the setup ink. It tells me to return it to the merchants that sold it to me well they are closed. 

I have Googled the problem several times even took it to Best Buy Geek Squad everything says I have to have the setup ink. Can anybody help me is? Is it possible to buy set up ink 564?

I am a teacher at a local Technical College I have been working from home since March. I really need this printer and cannot afford to go out and buy a brand new one again. Please please please help me
