Setup Cartridge bypass setup

[Techwizard2]

Is there a way to bypass the " Use Setup cartridge" error on the HP Photosmart 5510 printer. I do not have access to those setup cartridges as the printer was given to me.

Thanks

Hi @Techwizard2,

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

I'd be happy to help you! 

I understand that you are facing issues with the bypass setup cartridge error.

Check the ink cartridges

• Check the cartridge labels and make sure the cartridges are seated properly in the carriage.
• Turn on the printer, and then open the door or lid to the cartridge access area.
• Wait until the carriage is idle and silent before you continue.
• Check if the cartridges have 'SETUP' on the label.
• If your new printer did not come with SETUP cartridges Contact HP Customer Support . SETUP cartridges cannot be purchased from retailers and are available only with a new printer or with some replacement printhead kits.
• If SETUP cartridges are installed, or you installed new cartridges and got the error, continue to the next step.
• Push in the tab on a cartridge, and then lift it out of the slot.

• Reinsert the cartridge into its color-coded slot, and then press down on it until it snaps into place.

• Repeat these steps to remove and reinsert the other cartridges.
• Close the door or lid to the cartridge access area.
