I have a 2nd Photosmrt 7525, missing some setup ink cartridge

[CJCitrusHeights]

When I bought my HP Photosmart 7525, I also bought a second one as the original cord was taken by a 'friend'.  When I unpacked this 2nd one, I am missing 3 of the setup cartridges, and I do not know how to bypass the requirement.

It ook me several tries and restarts, the picture you provided is invaluable.  the one that finally worked is Trade OOBE.  I was able to get all the way through the setup menu without being stopped at insert the set up cartridges, but now when I start, the printer, it wants to align the cartridges,  It tries for a few moments, says there was a problem with printer or ink system after only 0% and to turn off printer and try again - still same result
