I bought HP printer in Fall 2023 and never enrolled in HP Ink subscription program. When original ink cartridges ran low I ordered third party ink. I’ve always been able to do this in the past. Now I realize HP doesn’t allow 3rd party ink. I would happily release HP from any warranty on this printer if they give me the right to make my own choices of ink. Otherwise this thing is best used as a boat anchor. How do I get HP out of my business?

Welcome to the HP English Community --
This HP printer is protected with Dynamic Security that enforces the use of HP-chipped ink cartridges.
Refilled or re-manufactured, all cartridges used in the printer must have an HP chip.
At this writing, there is no legal way to bypass the requirement.
Each Firmware update, from beginning and onward, reinforces the policy.
Example
HP ENVY Inspire 7900 All-in-One Printer series Firmware Update
Suggested Solutions
Use HP Chipped cartridges
OR
Donate the printer and replace it with one of your choosing
