How do you remove the dynamic security feature that forces you to purchase ink cartridges from HP,  rather then be able to refill the ones already purchased?

You can't turn it OFF, it's embedded in the latest printers firmware. If you can access olds printers firmware and make a downgrade that will probably remove dynamic security.

HP should provide a link to an older version that does not have it. Forcing people to use new HP cartridges is really not acceptable.  I bought the cartridges originally from HP, all I am trying to do is refill what I previously bought.  Where can one get a downgraded version of the firmware from please?
