Non-HP print cartridges

Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend use of non-HP print cartridges, either new or

their quality. Service or repair required as a result of using a non-HP print cartridge will not be covered
under the printer warranty.

When you use a non-HP print cartridge, certain features, such as remaining toner volume data may not
be available as a result of using this non-HP supply.

cartridges are inserted into the printer. During authentication, the printer will let you know if a cartridge

If the printer control panel message states that this is not a genuine HP print cartridge and you believe
you purchased an HP print cartridge, call the HP fraud hotline.
