Notice
Cartridge chip information
The HP cartridges used with this product contain a memory chip that assists in the operation of the product. In
addition, this memory chip collects a limited set of information about the usage of the product, which might include
the following: the date when the cartridge was first installed, the date when the cartridge was last used, the number
of pages printed using the cartridge, the page coverage, the printing modes used, any printing errors that might
have occurred, and the product model. This information helps HP design future products to meet our customers
printing needs.
The data collected from the cartridge memory chip does not contain information that can be used to identify a
customer or user of the cartridge or their product.
HP collects a sampling of the memory chips from cartridges returned to HPs free return and recycling program (HP
Planet Partners: www.hp.com/hpinfo/globalcitizenship/environment/recycle/). The memory chips from this sampling
are read and studied in order to improve future HP products. HP partners who assist in recycling this cartridge might
have access to this data, as well.
Any third party possessing the cartridge might have access to the anonymous information on the memory chip. If
you prefer to not allow access to this information, you can render the chip inoperable. However, after you render
the memory chip inoperable, the cartridge cannot be used in an HP product.
If you are concerned about providing this anonymous information, you can make this information inaccessible by
turning off the memory chips ability to collect the products usage information.
To disable the usage information function
1.Touch Setup.
