HP policy on non-HP supplies

Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of non-HP supplies, either new or remanufactured. Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence their design or control their quality. Service or repairs required as a result of using a non-HP supply will not be covered under the printer warranty.

When you insert a supply into the printer, the printer will inform you if the supply is not a genuine HP supply. If you insert a genuine HP supply that has reached the low state from another HP printer, the printer identifies the supply as non-HP. Simply return the supply to the original printer to reactivate HP features and functionality.

Resetting the printer for non-HP supplies

 

When you install a non-HP print cartridge or imaging drum, the light next to the print cartridge or

 

imaging drum you replaced blinks and the Attention light is on. You must press

(CANCEL JOB)

 

the first time you install this non-HP supply. The status lights will not indicate when this type of

 

supply is low or empty.

 

 

 

CAUTION

The printer will not stop printing when this type of supply is empty. Printer damage could occur if

 

the printer prints with an empty print cartridge or imaging drum. See “Hewlett-Packard limited

 

warranty statement” on page 106 and “Limited warranty for the print cartridges and imaging drum”

 

on page 107.
