Hi,
Running Windows, I have been using H-P 8250 printers for years,as their
6 ink cartridge setup gives me beautiful colors in photographs. I just
tried to use a brand new boxed 8250 which I kept in reserve for a year or
so. I get an error message on its screen:
"Wrong cartridges installed. Use the introductory cartridges that were
shipped with your printer." Inasmuch as this was an open box item, the
seller apparently included standard H-P cartridges, not the introductory
type.

The printer will not print, but keeps on displaying the error message. I
called H-P support per telephone,but they were less than helpful, just
spouting generalized platitudes. They tried very hard to sell me a new
printer, which I do not want.

Does anyone know how I can get this computer to work? I would greatly
appreciate any help in this regard.

Thanks in advance.

Install new carts or even swap the carts out of the other unit and install
them in this alternate printer.
