I have a used 4140 printer and do not have the set up cartridges. How can I bypass this so I can set it up?

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.

 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I understand you are receiving a "use setup ink cartridges" error.

 

We would have to perform an OOBE reset on the printer to bypass the error

  • The reset instructions are specific for your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may corrupt the device.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
