HP #10 ink cartridges expiration date unknown???
I bought 3 #10 cartridges for my last remaining HP printer (2000c). All three have an expiration date well into next year. Says so on the outside of their boxes. Yet the HP tool box says expiration date is unknown!! I pulled them out and put still useful cartridges in and their expiration dates show up. I put the new ones in and still no expiration date. Their ink levels also show as if they are about to run out. Well, I weighed a cartridge I knew for sure was totally empty and it weighed 1.5 oz. I weighed all three new cartridges and the results were 2.5, 2.3, and 2.5 oz. I talked with a manager at Staples who is familiar with these cartridges and he never heard of this situation. I know HP has taken a lot of heat for their expiration dates so I'm wondering if what I'm seeing is their attempt to allow the cartridges to run until they actually are out of ink, but in doing so ink levels are incorrect. Another possibilty is the cartridges went thru some sort of electronic security detection in transit to the store and now the chip is messed up. Is this possible? Could sloppy handling (clerk drops a whole case of cartridges) on the floor and causes a problem with the ink levels and expiration date? Like I said earlier, all three cartridges are showing the same symptoms. Printing is fine so far, but I'm dumbfounded. TIA for help with this dilemma mark_

I have not heard of this one, but I would call HP for warranty replacement since the cartrdige are still under warranty. Since the printer is out of warranty they may ask for your credit card but should not charge you once they determine it is a still-under-warranty ink supply issue.

Hi All, I have been using an HP Photosmart 1100 with Win 98 for the last several years and have been very happy with it. I just upgraded my computer to Win XP (clean install) and installed the same Photosmart 1100 as the default printer using the same USB connection. The printer prints just fine once it gets going but it takes an eternity (60 seconds or more) to actually start printing. All other aspects of printing are just fine. I've checked both HP and Microsoft's support and knowledge base areas but can't find any reference to this behaviour and I'm not sure what to try. Any thoughts ?

Various HP printer ink expiration dates analyzed
Q: What is the significance of the date printed on the HP ink PACKAGE? SINGAPORE MAY 2003 > Relevant Hewlett Packard ink cartridge dates are: > - The date HP manufactured the ink cartridge > - The date HP prints on the ink cartridge > - The date HP prints on the ink cartridge package consumer cardboard box > - The date HP printer cartridges are installed in the printer > - The date HP first stops printing (due to false "low ink" messages) > - The date HP usually stops printing (due to false "expiration" messages) > - The date HP actually stops printing (due to true expiration messages) Since we now know full well HP inserts up to three false expiration dates before the final (true) expiration date, I ask this question: Q: What is the MEANING of this date printed on the HP package box?

HP Printer Ink Expiration & Warranty Date Secret Decoder Ring
As far as I can tell from googling like crazy, here are the six HP printer ink relevant dates. Note that most people throw away the ink cartridge upon the first (false) expiration date. Only those who read the google record know that first end-of-service date can be overcome, giving the user an additional year or two of useful service. I post this by way of peer review so that the experts can correct where I make any mistake. 1. Manufacture date = date printed on ink cartridge minus 30 months 2. Installation date = hand written on ink cartridge when first installed 3. Install-by date = manuf...

Gray Photo Print HP 100 Cartridge versus/vs. Black Print Cartridge (HP 94/96) for an old HP Photosmart 4850 printer
Hello. I have an old HP Photosmart 4850 printer. I noticed it can have a Gray Photo Print HP 100 Cartridge or Black Print Cartridge (HP 94/96) for black. Do I assume HP 100 is only for grey scale printouts with images like photographs/photos.?

Any HP printer with individual colored ink cartridges?
I'm a long time HP printer user, and I'm looking at purchasing a new inkjet printer. I would like to save money by buying an inkjet that uses individual colored ink cartridges. Well, at least I think I'll save money. It seems HP does not make inkjet with individual ink cartridge for each color, is it? Also among the major printer manufacturer, like HP, Canon, Epson; it seems only HP build the print head in the ink cartridge. I have been very satisfied with HP printer, but I would like to try another brand. I have the impression HP inkjet printers are expensive to operate. Any ideas/opinions/comments welcomed. BTW, the Canon Pixma printers look interesting, especially the double-sided print feature.

I also noticed that the refill kits you offer at inflated prices are universal inks instead of specific inks for a particular printer. Would I ever purchase from this spamming operation?

Resetting expiration date HP CP1160 print cartridge (#14)
Anyone know a way to reset or disable the expiration date in the HP # 14 inkjet cartridge (HP CP1160 printer). Mine isn't old enough to be expired but just the same it is. Any information would be helpful. Thanks, John The expiry date is burned in to a microchip that is part of the uPC that is inside of the cartridge. This chip was programmed at the time of manufacture. It is not something you can change. This is unfortunate that someone cannot keep these cartridges in storage. They did this to prevent refilling. I was told that they discontinued this procedure for the newer printers, because they were loosing a lot of sales because of this practice. -- Jerry G. ===== "jbclem1" <jbclem1@charter.net> wrote in message news:10dhm8rrg3r2909@corp.supernews.com...

Given that actual re-fill tests proved (in ascending order): a) derived_true_manufacture_date = 2001/12/10 (cartridge printed date - 2.5 years) b) date_cartridge_was_purchased === 2002/01/12 (date cartridge was purch...
HP Printer Ink Expiration & Warranty Date Secret Decoder Ring
As far as I can tell from googling like crazy, here are the six HP printer ink relevant dates. Note that most people throw away the ink cartridge upon the first (false) expiration date. Only those who read the google record know that first end-of-service date can be overcome, giving the user an additional year or two of useful service. I post this by way of peer review so that the experts can correct where I make any mistake. 1. Manufacture date = date printed on ink cartridge minus 30 months 2. Installation date = hand written on ink cartridge when first installed 3. Install-by date = manuf...

Gray Photo Print HP 100 Cartridge versus/vs. Black Print Cartridge (HP 94/96) for an old HP Photosmart 4850 printer
Hello. I have an old HP Photosmart 4850 printer. I noticed it can have a Gray Photo Print HP 100 Cartridge or Black Print Cartridge (HP 94/96) for black. Do I assume HP 100 is only for grey scale printouts with images like photographs/photos.? And I would want to buy and use black print cartridge (HP 94/96) for printouts with mostly black texts (e.g., documents, web pages)? Thank you in advance. :) -- "..., you ready for a little dumpster diving?" "Um... okay." "You know I don't mind getting my hands dirty." "I mean, maggots, wet tras...
Any HP printer with individual colored ink cartridges?
I'm a long time HP printer user, and I'm looking at purchasing a new inkjet printer. I would like to save money by buying an inkjet that uses individual colored ink cartridges. Well, at least I think I'll save money. It seems HP does not make inkjet with individual ink cartridge for each color, is it? Also among the major printer manufacturer, like HP, Canon, Epson; it seems only HP build the print head in the ink cartridge. I have been very satisfied with HP printer, but I would like to try another brand. I have the impression HP inkjet printers are expensive to operate. Any ideas/opinions/comments welcomed. BTW, the Canon Pixma printers look interesting, especially the double-sided print feature.

HP cartridge with 2001 expiration date -- still ok?
There's someone on ebay selling an HP 51645A cartridge cheap, turns out is has an expiration date of 10/2001. What are the odds that it will still work ok?

HP CP1700 printer has expired cartridges. Any way to hack this?

Resetting expiration date HP CP1160 print cartridge (#14)
Anyone know a way to reset or disable the expiration date in the HP # 14 inkjet cartridge (HP CP1160 printer). Mine isn't old enough to be expired but just the same it is. Any information would be helpful. Thanks, John The expiry date is burned in to a microchip that is part of the uPC that is inside of the cartridge. This chip was programmed at the time of manufacture. It is not something you can change. This is unfortunate that someone cannot keep these cartridges in storage. They did this to prevent refilling. I was told that they discontinued this procedure for the newer printers, because they were loosing a lot of sales because of this practice. -- Jerry G. ===== "jbclem1" <jbclem1@charter.net> wrote in message news:10dhm8rrg3r2909@corp.supernews.com...

Hello. Tonight, my very old HP Photosmart 8450 printer lost the fairly new HP Tri-Color Print Cartridge 97 cartridge (2014/08/24 Z; 1782606105249600) after I printed out a three/3 pages of B&W PDF application form after turning on the printer for a few minutes. The printer showed a blinking red print button border and its screen says "Color cartridge failed. Replace it, or ... remove it to print using ink-backup printing mode." I tried removing and reinserting the cartridge, turning off and on including unplugging its power cable, cleaning cartridge and print...
HP 10 and HP 11 cartridges
I have a printer that uses HP11 cartridges. I also have some HP10 cartridges (unused). It's made me wonder if the ink formulations will be the same and if I can swap the HP10 ink into an empty HP11 housing? Anyone done this? I'd give it a go, but I thought I'd ask first, particularly if there's a difference in ink formulation between these units. Thanks, Paul ...

Three color ink cartridges in my CP1700 are expired after I stock away the printer for about six months. If I had known it works like this, I would never get this one in the beginning.

Is it necessary for both black & color cartridges to have ink with HP 1400 Printer/Scanner
I am a user of HP 1400 Printer cum Scanner which provides two slots for one black and one color cartridge. If the color cartridge has dried up and I am urgently in need of printing out a document in black, can I print in black keeping the exhasted color cartridge in the cradle? Have I to press the Black button on the Printer for starting the print operation? Similarly if the black cartridge has dried up, can I print in color, keeping the exhausted black cartridge in the cradle as a dummy? Have I to press the Color Button on the Printer to start operation? Why doesn't HP provide ...

I want to eliminate the "ink cartridge missing or damaged" error from my HP all-in-one.
