HP laser Jet print cartridge 35 A
I have had a different cartridge system in India for 18 yrs. I had a tech 3 hrs. away who handled all computer/printer needs.
I am 78, reassigned to America, and all is new. I am without a computer tech.
I put the cartridge in and the copy was blank.
I took out the cartridge, saw an orange tab, had no directions so I pulled the orange tab. Eventually the ribbon appeared.
Now I have an orange tab, 10 in. of plain ribbon, and 8 in of print ribbon with a thumb smear where I touched it.
What can I do now?
