HP firmware update blocks the use of non-HP cartridges
Posted on September 13, 2017 at 18:38 CDT by woody • Comment in the ForumsGünter Born reports that there’s a new HP Officejet driver making the rounds today that produces a bogus front panel message:
One or more cartridges appear to be damaged. Remove them and replace with new cartridges
HP’s new firmware update seems to force HP’s Dynamic Security Feature to block non HP cartridges. Fortunately, there is a manual workaround.
