Worked on my HP Office Jet Pro 6978! I was having trouble with the more technical fix and this is an ingenious workaround. Thank you so much and fuck HP for making this necessary.
Also want to add that I had stockpiled several non-HP cartridges, so when the recent compatibility issue happened, I was faced with not only the dilemma of having to now buy the more expensive HP cartridges, but probably $150 worth of my existing cartridges would have become obsolete. Thank you so much for sharing this tip and - as always - fuck HP.
This worked like a charm!!! After trying to install downgrade" software and spending hours at this, I found your video. Thank you sir for positing this very simple fix! I was about to throw out the printer and buy a new one and NEVER buy HP again! I still won't buy HP ever again after them hijacking my printer!!! Cheers Abel! :)
You are a good man sir! Thank you so much. Such a simple yet out of the box solution while I was trying to do it the hard way and downgrade the firmware to get it to work. Old school methods rock. Hats off and thank you again.
Going to eventually try refilling some of my empty 962 carts so I'll keep this trick in mind, thank you. I love my 925 printer, removable print head, excellent fast print quality, but ink is expensive and they have all kinds of drm to stop you from using non OEM carts or refilling. Might get a ink tank eventually if I can find one that does everything as well as my printer does now.
Hp unless you subscribe to their ink program the ink won't print or work how do you remove their chip and still be able to use all the ink you have from them and their program?
