How to solve the Message "Incompatible print cartridge".

Hello everyone

Have you ever received the message "Incompatible print cartridge"? This may be caused by defective cartridges, dirty cartridge contacts, or by using the wrong cartridges for your printer or the region. If you get this message after moving to another country and using a different HP ink you will need to call HP support and ask them to explain how to change the region of your printer.

If, however, you have not moved and you get this message with a new cartridge or current a little troubleshooting can be made. There is an article and the youtube video to help you to solve this problem, they are two excellent tools for troubleshooting. If the steps do not resolve your problem that make sure you try a different cartridge because it helps to isolate the problem to the printer or cartridge.

  • How to solve the message "Installation failed to Initialize"?

    I've used Adobe products for over 20 years. Now I'm really stuck, and cat live has not been helpful at all (no answers to my questions, just instructions ignoring what I'm saying, which is in fact already tried all of the suggestions/instructions, and they did not work). My OS is Windows 7, professional reception. I bought CS5.5 Design Premium on a CD and tried to install it. The CD seemed to work; the installation started. Then nothing happened for more than an hour, so I canceled the installation and rebooted my computer. Now when I try to install, I get a message saying 'Could not initialize Installation' and I have to watch the whole show on the link Support Advisor. When I do this, the Manager finds no error. I can't find the Setup logs. Chat live suggested that I change the ODBE (or something like that) to the 'old' file, and then try again. It did not work. I downloaded the Application Manager. This did not help, either. Copy the contents of the CD to the desktop did not better results. Live chat suggested that I have download the trial version and then try to use my legitimate serial number. I said that it does probably not either, because the first attempt of CD issues had not been resolved. Nine hours later the free trial download is complete, and after all this, I got the same failure to initialize the message. I answered to my 'record' and, so help me, the representative of the customer even replied, telling me to download the trial version. In other words, it completely ignored the fact that I had tried and it didn't work. I looked on the forum and there was a discussion on this "initialization failed", but the discussion was completely in German, which helps not at all. I hope that someone on this forum can help me in this process; This software is mega expensive and should come with better support.

    Yes, it seems that if you run in a permission issues when the Setup program attempts to write to your disk.  I recommend to create a new local administrator account and try the installation under this account.  Alternatively, you can consider running the installation in a selective startup upwards to minimize interference from other applications or services.

    The following documents should help if you need any indication as to the following steps:

    Create the local admin account. Windows 7, Vista - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/create-local-administrator-account-windows.html

    Restart Windows in modified mode | Windows 7, Vista - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/restart-windows-modified-mode-windows.html

    If this fails, you can also try to log in using the built-in Administrator account (Windows 7 and Vista) - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/log-using-built-administrator-account.html , and then perform the installation with the built-in Administrator account.  I recommend the creation of a first local user account well only in case your existing user accounts have had their permissions compromised.

    If you can answer it please get back with the results, it would be appreciated.  If you have additional questions about the steps listed please do not hesitate to reply to this topic as well.

  • Incompatible print cartridge error C309g.

    Incompatible print cartridge error C309g. When replacing foul 564 XL (black), now I get this message. The new cartridge works in another printer that uses 564 XL. Went ahead and tried another brand new 564 XL - same message. Have turned printer on and outside. Is there a way to reoot, clean or otherwise set the printer before assuming it's really broken? Other suggestions?

    UPDATE: this has been resolved with a hard reset. I found how to do this in another post (thanks bassergitz!). How to do a hard reset or 'dirty power up': when the printer is on, pull on the power cord to the printer and the wall. After 30 seconds reconnect power to the wall and printer. It will take several minutes to initialize.

  • Faulty or incompatible print cartridge Desk Jet 6840

    MacBook Pro. I recently installed Lion (10.7.2). All the drivers are up to date.

    Neither ink cartridges black HP 94 two new works. When I reinstalled the cartridge used, I also had the "Faulty or incompatible print cartridge" message, even though the old cartridge had worked (although bad) before I tried to install the new.

    I've seen the suggestion to contact HP support, but my printer is 4 or 5 years, which means that they don't want to talk to me.

    Any suggestions?

    The steps in this troubleshooting page can help solve the problem.  Also check the transport to make sure that the spring x-bias is not dislodged.  If the spring became dislodged (1) and punctured the flex circuit (2) the printer will require repairs.

Windows Explorer > My Computer > c drive > programs > HP and everything by browsing files spotted a title 'Chrome', remembering that, among other things, I had recently uninstalled Google Chrome, reinstalled it and WOW! the printer now works thanks for that it was your interaction that led this research. However, it raises another question - how can I remove Chrome and does not affect the printer?

  • need help to know how to solve the problem

    Hi all. I'm having a problem with the curse Client. I know it is not answered here, but when I try to run it two problems come. The first is that it says that an error has occurred while trying to load a standard Microsoft.NET library in the Curse Client Xamll. It is said to the difficulty to go to Microsoft Download Center to repair my installation of .net. I can't find how to do it, I can get to the centre of download, but not sure where to look to fix. The other issue that comes up is - it say what he and my Kaspersky Internet protection can interfere although I went and enabled access by customer to curse through security. If anyone can explain how to solve the question of compensation, I would appreciate it.

    -Sometimes the error messages are not quite accurate. Maybe it's just that .NET 3.5 has been disabled in

    Windows features (this can happen if you have updated .NET to 4.5).

    Go to control panel > programs and features > turn on or off Windows features and

    Go to Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 to check if it is enabled.

    -If .NET 3.5 is actually corrupted (maybe of curse, put it back), you can uninstall through programs

    and features, then reinstall .NET 3.5.

    There will be updates Windows Installer reinstallation of .NET 3.5 so. -

    Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 sp1

    How to solve the error ORA-00001 in SQL Insert?

    ORA-00001 means table a unique/primary key / index and you attempt to insert a row with the key value already exists in the table. I'll assume table has a primary key on COUNTRY_ID. Then modify SQL for:

    SQL = "INSERT INTO COUNTRIES (COUNTRY_ID, COUNTRY_NAME, REGION_ID) SELECT"BZ","BLZ", 3 DOUBLE WHERE DOES NOT EXIST (SELECT 1 FROM COUNTRIES WHERE COUNTRY_ID ="BZ").

    There is a good chance COUNTRY table also has unique key/index on COUNTRY_NAME. If so use:

    SQL = "INSERT INTO COUNTRIES (COUNTRY_ID, COUNTRY_NAME, REGION_ID) SELECT"BZ","BLZ", 3 DOUBLE WHERE DOES NOT EXIST (SELECT 1 FROM COUNTRIES WHERE COUNTRY_ID = 'BZ' OR 'BLZ' = COUNTRY_NAME).

    SY.
