Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

"Setup" cartridges can be included in the box with a new printer - Setup cartridges are intended to be used when the printer is new -- at "first use".  Setup cartridges are used to initialize the ink system.  Setup cartridges can be used until the ink in the cartridge is depleted (gone).

If you refill a cartridge of this type, even assuming refilling a dried out cartridge is a good idea (it is not) - the type of the cartridge ("Setup") would likely result in an error "Do not use Setup Cartridges".

No black ink, wrong colors, other print quality issues
