How do I reset the 940 ink cartridge chip on Officejet Pro 8500 Premier?

I have refilled my 940 ink cartridge and now I can't get my printer to print. I get the error message that I do not have enough ink to ensure printer health. My ink is full. 

Hi sparkplugYou could maybe try resetting the printer...http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02005923&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3752456&tmp_track_link=ot_search  Note though, as BikerMike has already pointed out,  refills tend to not to have the same reliability as originals...http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00853819&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_US...  Kind Regards, Ciara

    My Officejet pro 8500 premier A909n will not print color i have cleaned the printerheads a few times and it still wont print colors. How do i change the printerheads? I tried to get the cover off on the right hand side but cant seem to get it off and i really do not want to break it. How does it come off?

    Hi there @plbart 
    Welcome to the HP Forums!

  • Can I use Replacemen​t 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.

  • Not printing black ink after new ink cartridge installed (HP Officejet Pro L7555)

    I have an HP Officejet Pro L7555 on which I just replaced the black ink cartridge.  Now it won't print in black at all.  I have tried cleaning the printhead multiple times to no avail.  I only get printouts of boxes in all colors except black and nothing else written on the page at the end of each printhead cleaning cycle. 
    When I print the Self Test Diagnostic Page, it comes out in Magenta instead of black.  On this page, it shows that both printhead are in good condition.  The ink level on the black ink cartridge is shown to be full as would be expected for a newly installed cartridge. 
    I have replaced other cartridges on this printer before, and have not had this issue.  Could anyone please help?

    Thanks, garytech1.  I have seen the document.
    Solution 1. I have used and am using only genuine HP cartridges.  The one I recently replaced was black.  I have replaced the other colors before without problems.  
    Solution 2. I am using the correct type of paper. There are no streaks on the printouts.  Any printing I try from a document with black text comes out blank. The only two types of printouts I have obtained are:
      a. The Self Test Diagnostic Page, which comes out in magenta and it has no streaks.  It also lists the status of the printheads as being good.
      b. The printout that follows a printhead cleaning that has all color boxes except black. There are no streaks here either.
    Solution 3. I have checked the print settings (I have Windows XP SP3) and they are all correct.
    Solution 4. I have printed the PQ Diagnostic page and it is all blank except for some colored boxes.  There are no streaks in them.  No grey  boxes appear.
    Solution 5. There is nothing wrong with the images or documents I am trying to print.  
    Solution 6. I don't see why I should have to spend $70+ to replace the black/yellow printhead when:
      a. The yellow color comes out fine in the colored boxes
      b. All the diagnostics (the ones that are in the installed software as well as the ones I obtained from the HP website) all show the condition of both printheads to be good, and
      c. When all printing was working just fine before I replaced the cartridge.  Is there a physical way to clean the printheads since it appears from all of the above that it is the genuine HP ink that may have actually plugged it up?
    Thanks for your help!

  • Officejet Pro 8500 Premier: How do I force the Copy function to use paper from Tray 2?

    I set the default tray to Tray 2 and locked Tray 1 to protect my envelopes and this works fine when printing from the computer. But when I copy a document using the START COPY button, the printer pulls from Tray 1 and complains about the media being the wrong size.
    When I use the printers control panel to set the Copy function to use Tray 2, it resets itself to Tray 1 the next time I copy something.
    Surely I am not the only one in the Universe who would want to configure my printer to do this.
    Has anyone else out there tried this?
    Also, is there a specific forum for the Officejet Pro 8500 series printers?

    Hi
    Hope you're still checking this
    I had the same problem but found that if you go to the copy menu through the touchscreen, change the tray to tray 2 and then scroll to the very bottom there is an option to "Set as new default". This also changes the default for the Start Copy buttons - at least it did for me anyway.
    Good luck

  • 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.

  • Re: Not printing black ink after new ink cartridge installed (HP Officejet Pro (edited)

    Well 1 to 2 years later I have the exact same problem described by the posters with my OfficeJet 4020.  My black printing started to deteriorate as the cartridge went empty, put in the same HP cartridges I have been buying at Costco since I bought the printer there 2 years ago, first new black cartridge printed poorly then just started to come out blank as described above.  Put in second new cartridge  Also ran all the cleaning and alignment tests and functions. no improvement and no malfunction found. While doing this I used up the three color cartridges which printed okay, it was just the black. Even went out and bought a third new cartridge from Staples to make sure the Costco ones weren't just bad.  This HP replaced a Canon that lasted for ages and it's a problem already.  
    Did anyone ever find a solution to the HP black cartridge blank printing problem? 

    What is the model of your printer - there is not an Officejet 4020 that I can find.  Is your model an Officejet 4620?  If so I suggest you call HP support regardless of warranty as described in the post here.  If you are in the US call 1-800-HPINVENt, elsewhere see the contact information here.

  • How can I set the fax prefix no. on HP officejet pro 8600

    Greeting.
    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600, and I want to send FAX thru this.
    In my office, we need to put '0' to call outside.
    However, there is no prefix setting menu on this device.
    I have another model HP 1213mf which has Prefix No. menu on it, but I couldn't find this menu on 8600.
    Please Help me

    Hi Wony,
    Welcome to the HP forums!
    I understand you're looking for a way to add a prefix on the Officejet 8600 for faxing, and I will do my best to explain what I found on this subject.
    As far as I can tell, and I did check with a few colleagues, there is no Prefix No. menu on the OJ 8600 like there was on your LaserJet 1213mf. With that being said, that doesn't mean that you can't use this printer to fax in your office. Anytime you need to dial the fax you would hit the 0 first follow by ##, as that adds a pause to the dialing to then dial the rest of the number. You can also add that to speed dial numbers so that for numbers that are used all the time you don't have to dial the number each and every time.
    So just as an example, if you were to fax HP's faxback server (1-888-473-2963) you would dial "0##1-888-473-2963" to get the fax to send.
    This may not be exactly what you were looking for, but I hope this is an acceptable workaround Please let me know!

  • How do I remove the Output Tray of my HP OfficeJet Pro 8620 e-All-in-One Printer

    I cannot remove the Output Tray.  I do some printing two-sided (one in color, the other b&w).  Removing the Main Input Tray to place the paper for Side 2 is time-consuming.  It would be much easier to take the just-printed Side 1 as it's completed, then simply lay it correctly on top of the blank sheets in the Main Input Tray to print Side 2. I am unable to remove the Output Tray.  The store's salesman said it should be easy to remove and re-install, but that it may held in place by a piece of tape. I am prone to breaking things I'm trying to work on.  I don't want to break my 4-months old printer! Any ideas?  Thanks.  

    The main part of the output tray is not removable.  There are a few alternatives:  the input tray can be pulled partially open and the printed pages loaded in it - it should not be necessary to remove the input tray completely. The other possibility would be to just print using the automatic duplexer.  If you are printing on plain paper or index paper this should work, it would not be suitable for printing on the back side of photo paper.
