Bought the ink cartridge for Nort- America (HP no. 61), I am from West Europe (HP no. 301)

I have a HP Deskjet 1000 J110 Series printer. The print program I got from HP online, showed me (I was out of black ink) that I had to buy the cartridge No. 61. So I bought this online. I put the cartridge in the printer but I got the message that this cartridge was not the right one for my printer. I found out that I need the no. 301 because I have a printer from West Europe (where I live). The no. 61 cartridge doesn't work in my printer because this is the one for Nort America. Is there any way how I can solve this/how my printer can "accept" the no. 61? The cartridge fits in the printer totally fine. Thanks in advance, Femke

You will need to Contact HP to request a "Regionalization Reset". There should not be any charge for this, it is covered as part of the cartridge warranty. You will need to have access to your computer and printer while on the line with HP. You will also need to have a set of cartridges for the new region, once the reset is complete cartridges from the original region will no longer work. HP's web page on the subject is here.

Have just tried to replace TESCO colour and black and white ink cartridges for a model 2540.

Each time I get the same error message 'incompatable older generation ink cartridge'. Contacted TESCO help desk and they sent a pair of cartridges direct to me.......the latest ones they have in stock............................same error message............does this mean that in future NO Tesco ink cartridge will ever be able to be used on a 2540 printer, or is this a way of getting me to buy HP cartridges at twice the cost?

Hi AlanAtkinson,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are getting an error that deals with the ink cartridges.
Please click on the following link that deals with An 'Older Cartridge' Message Displays on the Control Panel or the Computer.
I have also located a document that deals with A 'Used or Counterfeit Cartridge Detected' or 'Counterfeit Cartridge Advisory' Message Displays on t....

Can I use Replacement Printer ink cartridges for HP officejet Pro 8610

I recently purchased an HP OfficeJet Pro 8610. I previously had an 8600. They both use the same ink cartridges. I had just installed some remanufactured 950 XL and 951 XL cartridges in the old printer and tried to use them in the new printer. Of course I got an error message that cartridges weren't HP but the printer would still work. I would like to know if I can use other remanufactured ink cartridges with the new printer or if there is some way for the printer to allow me to use other ink cartridges as the HP cartridges are way over priced for the consumers. I hope there is a person out there that is conservative like me and tries to find the best bargains on everything. Your solutions would be appreciated. I waited on HP Support Assistant for 10 minutes with a dialogue I would be connected to a technician in less than a minute. They must have been on break or some other excuse, so I thought I would try this instead. Blessings. John Richardson

Hey @rockhoundjohn
Here's the thing, yes, you can refill your cartridges or use remanufactured cartridges, but you may run into problems.
QualityLogic, one of the world's foremost quality assurance organizations, tested the performance of HP inkjet print cartridges vs. remanufactured (refilled) brands. The results: original HP inkjet print cartridges far surpassed ink refills in both print quality and reliability.
Nearly one out of every six refilled ink cartridges tested was dead on arrival or failed prematurely
70% of refilled cartridges had some form of reliability problem
Count on HP original ink cartridges for consistent, worry-free printing. You may think you're saving money on remanufactured or refilled ink cartridges, but in the long run, the cost of wasted time, ink, and paper can more than make up the difference. - Source
Most people think, 'well of course that is what HP or an HP representative would say', but I have done some research and found that many others have too. Here is a perfect example of somebody who does not work for HP in any way and basically is a customer advocate (in my opinion) ; Should you refill your printer’s ink cartridges? HP says no (of course) By Matthew Murray
I found the above article interesting and genuine.
My personal recommendation is to buy the HP XL cartridges as they are more cost efficient, and be mindful in the printer you choose when buying an inkjet. The 8610 was a good choice. The expected page yield of the HP 950XL High Yield Black Original Ink Cartridge is 2300 pages. The regular size cartridge page yield is 1000, still good but the XL is by far a better value. Some of the Photosmart printers or Deskjets are great for what they are intended for, but do not have as good of a cost per page.
HP's recommendation; Keep in mind that page yield is just one component of cost, and that factors such as quality, reliability, productivity, and efficiency affect cost as well. Products that work reliably will ultimately save you time and money. When you choose an inkjet printer, make sure you consider your individual printing needs.
- Source
To summarize, again, yes you can refill the cartridges. The printer is not programmed to reject them. Sometimes the cartridges will not work and of course because they are non HP, HP would not be able to do anything to help. HP cartridges have a 2 year manufacture warranty; Limited Warranty for HP Ink Cartridges and Customer-Replaceable Printheads for HP Inkjet Supplies, this may give you comfort knowing HP stand behind their product.

Hello lovelylooly,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I would not expect to see a yellow ink when un boxing a black, that is very odd. What is the model of printer you are buying the inks for? Is it possible to post a picture or two of the packaging, as well as the product number of the ink?
Thanks for posting and I hope to hear back from you

Hi @dkp529,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you are wondering what causes the ink cartridges to bleed inside the printer. I am happy to help!
Most likely this is a mechanical issue with the printer itself, especially if you have changed out the cartridges and the problem is persisting. The best option at this point is to, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836 for an upgrade.

I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries)

I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!

1
Close all iWork applications
2
Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
3
empty the trash
4
shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
5
Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

Because the developer needs to create and maintain the two versions separately and has chosen to charge for the Mac OS X version.

How do I tak out the ink cartridge on HP Officejet Pro 8600?

Need to remove my ink cartridge to buy a set backup. How do you remove the old cartridge?

The HP Office Pro 8600 series consists of 3 model variations. I have the Plus version. All functions similiar.
With the power 'ON', grip the side of the front panel (left handed) just below the HP logo. The entire panel will swing down. The ink cartridge bay will move from the right to the left. Push on the cartridge, and it will pop-out.
Manual, see pg 13 and 92. WARNING per HP: Never turn off the printer when ink cartridges are missing.

I have bought the wireless keyboard for my iPad. I was working for a day but now the power light won't stay on and as such won't connect to the iPad. I have changed the batteries but still no difference.

I have bought the wireless keyboard for my iPad. I was working for a day but now the power light won't stay on and as such won't connect to the iPad. I have changed the batteries but still no difference.

Not knowing which wireless keyboard you bought, it is difficult to be specific. but ...
it is quite normal for the keyboard's power light not to stay on - it is a way of conserving battery power.
Try this:
turn you keyboard off
on your iPad go to Settings > Bluetooth
if your keyboard is listed under Devices, then touch the little blue i to its right and choose Forget this Device
now reset your iPad: hold both the Home and Power buttons down for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears, let go promptly when the Apple logo appears and wait another 30 seconds for your iPad to turn itself on
After your iPad is back on again go back to Settings > Bluetooth
now turn your keyboard back on and see if it appeard under Now Discoverable
if it doesn't read your keyboard guide to figure out how to put it into Discovery mode
touch the listing for your keyboard under Now Discoverable, it should now appear under Devices
touch the listing for you keyboard under Devices, and choose to pair with it.
