How to bypass setup cartridges for HP ENVY 5540

[Nofiox]

Trying to set up my printer.  It seems the setup cartridges are not available (either misplaced, thrown away by mistake, or were not in the box).  I ordered the correct ink cartridges to in the printer, but they are not accepted because it's waiting for the setup cartridges.  I tried searching the internet to buy setup cartridges, but cannot find them.  I have seen some YouTube videos about how to bypass the setup cartridge message, but not for this printer.

Could you please help me with instructions on how to bypass this error message, or how I can get some setup cartridges?  Thanks in advance for your help.

EDIT: I only have Instant Ink cartridges... so ideally I'd like to set up the printer without any cartridge as therefore I will need to enroll the printer again in instant ink
