Problem: “10.0X.30. Unauthorised Cartridge”
The administrator has configured this printer to use only genuine HP.
Problem: “10.0X.57. Protected Cartridge”
The cartridge can only be used in the printer or fleet of printers that initially protected it using HP Cartridge Protection.
Resolution
Use the printer control panel to disable the Cartridge Policy feature:
- From the Home screen on the printer control panel, touch the Menu icon.
- Open the following menus:
- Supplies
- Settings
Please Note: Once Cartridge Policy is disabled, the cartridges already installed will no longer work but you should be able to install new compatible cartridges with no issues.
If these steps do not disable the Cartridge Protection, you should contact your network administrator who should be able to disable this feature from the HP EWS (Embedded Web Server).
Problem: faded output
Printouts are coming out faded.
Resolution
- If the print quality is poor, remove the toner cartridge from the printer and gently rock the cartridge from side to side.
- This movement helps distribute to the toner evenly within the cartridge.
- After rocking the cartridge 5-6 times, re-insert the cartridge into the printer and print a test page.
