HP Deskjet 3070A setup cartridge problems.

I was having problems with wireless working on my 'HP Deskjet 3070A All-in-one printer' and after trying different solutions I had found on HP support, I decided to give up and factory reset it.
This gave me a new problem, the printer now needs setup cartridges to, well, set it up. I did keep them after they ran out so tried using them again for setup, but they did not work as they have already been used. Is there any way I would be able to obtain new ones?

Re: Deskjet 3070A - replaced cartridges but won't print now!

Hello,
I have the same problem. Replaced my black cartridge on my deskjet 3070A and now it won't print any black ink at all.
Please can you help?
Thanks,
Tom

@Tskinner1
Hi Tom, is the printer in warranty? (typically it's one year from purchase). Can I ask which country are you based in?

Deskjet 3070a - Deskjet 3070A - replaced cartridges but now it stopped printing black

Hi,
I just replaced all my cartridges but the black colour is gone - I even tried to replace the black cartridge but it did not solve the issue.
The printer is out of warranty but I spend a lot of money on new ink so I would appriciate to receive advice on how to solve this issue.

The document here may help black not printing on your Deskjet 3070a. Be sure to check the vents as shown in solution three.
How far out of warranty? You can check with HP's warranty tool here. What country are you located in?

3070A setup cartridge message

Hi I have had a 3070A all in one for a year or so (it is out of warranty). I have just replaced the cartridges, we must have used about 10 sets over the time we have had the printer. The cartridges are genuine HP, although we have used other brands one or twice.
Suddenly I am getting the message "use SETUP cartridges for initialisation" and it won't print or copy.
I have tried unplugging the mains and rebooting it to no avail. I have long since lost the setup cartidges.
Is there any way around this?
Any help very much appreciated - I need to print some tickets out urgently!!!
Thanks

Setup black cartridge/ HP deskjet 3070A

Hello,
I do not have the setup cartridge from black anymore, but when I wanted to change the color setup cartridge with new ones. The printer keeps on asking to put in all the setup cartridges.
I also have reinstalled the software, but it keeps on asking for all the setup cartridges.
Again I try: and it keeps on asking
Use SETUP cartridges: Yellow. Use the SETUP cartridges that came with your printer for printer initialization.
Use SETUP cartridges: Black. Use the SETUP cartridges that came with your printer for printer initialization.
What do I need to do?
Kind regards,
Madyjane

Hi
I'm going to private message you on this

Deskjet 3070a use setup cartridges error

Hi I am having th same error message asking me to use the setup cartridges, i have no idea why I have changed the cartridges several times and to my knowlidge the power has not been removed from the printer, I have managed to find three of the original setup cartridges but not he black as no doubt that has been changed most often and was disposed of.
this seems to be a very poor system, it looks as if I shall have to buy another printer which is a shame as this one has worked faultlessly for some time now, it is well out of warenty. Please help sombody,
regards Mike

Hi @Mikepaget,
I understand that you are getting the message to "use the setup cartridges". You have already had several cartridges installed, so the setup cartridges wouldn't be required. I can help you.
I would do a hard reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.
Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.
This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
I have provided a document with some steps to try.

HP Deskjet 3520 e-All-in-One - SETUP Cartridges cannot be used

I purchased a refurbished Deskjet 3520 today from a local electronics store that came with SETUP Cartridges in the box. I turned on the printer, installed the cartridges, and received the following error message:
! Do not use SETUP
SETUP cartridges cannot be used after the device has been initialized. Remove and install non-SETUP cartridges.
Is there a way for me to do a factory restore / reset so that I can get these cartridges to work? The cartridges themselves have not been used before. Just trying to save money and use the cartridges that came with the device. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello busackzl,
Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand your concerns with your Deskjet 3520. Please try these steps:
1) Make sure this printer is plugged into a direct wall, not a surge protector
2) Take out the ink cartridges, close the cartridge door
3) Unplug the power cord from the back of the printer (Do not press the power button)
4) Wait 60 seconds or more
5) Plug the power cord back into the printer, wait for the printer to turn on completely
6) Now, install the ink cartridges
If you are still receiving the same message, then please contact HP technical support for further assistance. Click here to find out: HP Worldwide Contact.
Good Luck.

Can you bypass the Use Setup Cartridges on a HP Deskjet 3070

Hi
We have a Deskjet 3070 which was printing in different colours instead of black even with new black cartridges installed. So, we decided to do a factory reset by powering off and useing the OK, Cancel and On/Off power button sequence. Now it is looking for the Setup Cartidges but these were thrown out ages ago. Any suggestions?
Thanks
JK

Hi @ShamrockLiniux , and welcome to the HP Forums.
I see you are experiencing setup cartridge requests.
When performing the type of reset performed, the printer will require setup cartridges.
The best recommendation I could make would be to contact HP directly. You can utilize this website to learn how to contact HP appropriately, based on your region: Contact HP Worldwide.

Black cartridge not printing on Deskjet 3070A

Cannot get black ink to print on deskjet 3070A. have tried all recommended solutions and nothing works. very frustrating and time consuming. has anyone solved this problem ???

My HP deskjet 3070A is displaying the error code 0x19a0041, and no trouble shooting tips working.

I have spent all morning trying to resolve a problem on my hp deskjet printer (3070A) keeps displaying 'printer failure 0x19a0041' I have worked through all the trouble shooting tips on your website, but none seem to be working, so I tried to request a service, so then I tried to re-new my warranty, to request a service, but the system couldn't process my request. I then tried to call your helpline numbers listed in your website, but the number is no longer in use. Please help! I am at my wits end, as have spent a whole morning trying to sort this out! Thanks, Sarah

i tried to reset the printer as you said. it worked. and completely destroyed it. it keeps asking for the setup cartridges, which i still have, but they're not new ones. which i have found out, is a MUST for the printer to recognise them and start up. since you work for HP is it possible for me ask them to fix this without charge? i cannot check my warranty because my ORIGINAL problem which i was trying to fix does not allow me to install the driver for the printer and therefore i cannot detect whether my warranty still covers the product. Nor does the the printer allow me to scroll down and check my ID model number in the information menu for some insane reason, so i cannot even check manually....
ah the terms of use seem to say that i cannot ask them to fix this mess without charge. great.
do you have any advice?

Setup cartridges

Hello, I have gotten completely stuck on my HP Deskjet 3070A all in one. It has worked very well for a couple of years. Suddenly it wouldn't use black ink at all. Other colors printed fine. Of course I replaced the black ink with a new cartridge, and of course I tried the printhead cleaning options. I then tried to follow an instruction to do a reset of the printer, but the result was that I now get a "Thank you for choosing HP" every time I turn the printer on, and when I press "OK" to that, I invariably get the message "Use SETUP cartridges". I have seen various solutions to this on this board, and have tried to follow each of the variations, but to no avail. I have tried disconnecting the power with cartridges in and with cartridges out. Still the same message:"Use SETUP cartridges". I live in the UK, and calling the UK support led nowhere. I cannot find any official information in my documentation about resets or how, when, or why to use setup cartridges (other than the initial setup after purchase). I have long since discarded my setup cartridges, as I had no idea they were essential later, and they had run out of ink anyway. I would be willing to purchase new setup cartridges, if needed, but cannot find any place to buy them online (and I assume only HP can supply them anyway). Also, I have no idea whether setup cartridges are tied to a printhead, so that it all needs to be replaced together. Any help at all would be appreciated.

You mentioned that you contacted HP by phone, but received no support, is that because the printer isn't in warranty or were they just not able to resolve the issue?
I would honestly weigh your options here.
If the ink levels are at zero, I would recommend replacing the cartridges as the best troubleshooting step that you could try. There really is no way to try any other troubleshooting steps until you have cartridges in the printer that actually have ink. You can't do anything with empty cartridges unfortunately.
Then again, I would see how much buying a new printer would cost you vs the cartridges. With a new printer, you will have a new set of starter cartridges and a one year warranty that will cover any hardware and software issues that you may have, if any. It's also possible to purchase an extended warranty though HP, that will cover any issues with the printer after the one year warranty is up.
So really that decision is up to you.
