Good afternoon. I have a printer HP ENVY 5530 purchased in Asia.  Now I moved to Europe (France) and purchased a new cartridge (301XL) that is supposed to be compatible with this model but the printer shows the error message "Imcompatible Cartridge". Looking at the community, seems I am supposed to the regionalization reset of my printer.  Could you tell me how I can do it ?  Thank you.

Hi @Kiy83,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community

 

I'd like to help!

 

I understand you moved and the printer is not accepting the new region cartridges.

 

We need to perform a regional reset on the printer to resolve this issue. 

 

The reset instructions are specific to your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may brick the device. 

 

I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instructions to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer. 

 

To access your private messages, click the private message icon on the upper right corner of your HP Support Community profile, next to your profile Name or simply click on this link.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted. 

 

Please click “Accept as Solution” if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution.

Take care and have a good day.
