How to change expiration date cartridge hp design z 6100 when the ink is full and cartridge health is Good?

To override expired ink cartridges, use the HP Solution Center application.
https://support.hp.com/us-en

Because HP Solution Center uses Adobe Flash, you will need to change the date of your computer to before January 12, 2021 (since Adobe Flash is no longer supported).

Using Windows 10, go to Settings >> Date & time then turn Off "Set time automatically" and click on "Change" to Set the date manually and select 2020 and click on "Change". This will need to be repeated each time the printer reboots.

In HP Solution Center, choose "Status" to view the "Cartridge(s) Expired warning and click on "OK" to Dismiss this message.

try clean the gold contacts that touches the printer and the catridge.I remember some of the pins tells the printer the leftover ink in the catridge.

the other thing is, hp ink will 'expire'. there is a fixed date stored in the chip of the catridge. if the date is expired, you cant use the ink regardless its full or empty.

Hi,

Every cartridge will have its own ID and Expiry date, please check the Cartridge expiry date, if its really expired then printer will reject it even-though the cartridge is full.

We cannot bypass cartridge errors for single cartridge in INK-JET printer, because they work in TIJ technology (Thermal Ink Jet) which needs all cartridges to be functional unlike Laser-jet printers.

Hello
according to HP
Each ink cartridge has an expiration date. The purpose of expiration is to protect the printing system and to ensure ink quality. When you receive an ink cartridge(s) are expired message, remove and replace the expired ink cartridge, and then close the message. You can also continue printing without replacing the ink cartridge, by following the instructions on the HP All-in-One or the ink cartridge expiration message on your computer screen. HP recommends replacing the expired ink cartridges. HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of expired ink cartridges. Device service or repairs required as a result of using expired ink will not be covered under warranty.

As the printer operates, it moves ink from the ink cartridges into a printhead reservoir. The printer does not deliver a message when an ink cartridge goes empty, because it still has ink in the reservoir. The printer continues printing until the ink level in the reservoir falls to a first trigger point - then a message appears advising the printer owner to Replace Cartridges Soon . At this point, other cartridges that are empty but have not reached the trigger point are also mentioned in the message, to save trips to the retailer. After the first trigger point, the printer can continue printing until ink levels in the reservoir reach a second trigger point. At the second trigger point there is only enough ink left to perform vital servicing tasks, and a new message appears, saying Ink Cartridges Empty . The options offered depend on the usable inks remaining. If no options are offered, the cartridges indicated must be replaced before printing can continue. Reset the product

One possible problem is that the new cartridge has an expired date. According to the manuel, the printer cannot use an expired cartridge. Check the date on the cartridge. Good luck. I am hoping to get a refund from Staples because I bought an expired cartridge.

You were a bit vague in your report as to what the exact error is that you are plagued with. Perhaps you have more than one. The 9100’s ink cartridges are “smart cartridges.” They each have a chip in them that reports various cartridge statuses directly to the printer. Diagnosing the problem correctly requires the identification of the particular error message. You can find a list of the error messages and what they mean here:

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&taskId=110&prodSeriesId=376170&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=376170&objectID=c00067620

I think that you are experiencing an “INK CARTRIDGE EXPIRED” error. This error is not related to the ‘volume’ of the ink within the cartridge(s) but rather to the actual expiration ‘date(s)’ on the cartridge(s). The expiration date is encoded on the chip that resides on the cartridge. The actual expiration date appears to relate to the date two years after the date that is stamped on the cartridge label. I can’t change the expiration date on the chip—at least not easily or inexpensively—but I have discovered a way around it.

The date on the cartridge corresponds to the date on the printer itself. You just need to send the printer back in time to a period before the expiration date and you should be able to print again. A time machine is probably out of the question. Instead, reset the date on the printer to reflect a suitable date.

This could conceivably have some negative consequences that I haven’t experienced yet. I’ve only just discovered this ‘hack’. Though I haven’t tested it, the newly assigned, incorrect date will probably appear on any subsequently received fax transmissions. I can also conceive of networking issues if your printer is networked. Some network related instructions require that all network nodes (all devices on the network—computers, printers, etc.) report a time (and date) within just a few minutes of each other to communicate. You’ll just have to try it in your network and see if everything functions properly or within acceptable limits.

To change the date on the 9100 printer, you’ll need to access the ‘Maintenance’ menu. Just below the LCD panel on the front of the printer there are a series of buttons as follows:
[Return], [Up] & [Down], [Accept], [Left], and [Right]. They each have their own unique symbol, but I’m sure you can understand my descriptions. Press and hold BOTH, the [Up] and the [Down] buttons at the same time while you press and release the [Accept] button—then release the other two buttons. If you weren’t taken directly to the ‘Maintenance’ menu (# 10), then use the [Up] or [Down] arrow button to navigate to it and then choose the [Accept] button to select it. Similarly select the ‘Set date and time’ option, and follow the prompts to make the necessary changes using the appropriate buttons.

Once you have changed the date and time you may have to turn the printer off and then back on again before the printer will recognize the cartridge(s). In my case, the printer went through an extensive print head alignment.

Good luck!

Change your system date to backward and you can use it again

I had same problem, and i solved it.
I opened my hp 8250 and removed it`s battery. It is located on left side of the printer, on the main board. You need to remove plastic covers , and then remove 3 screws holding board. You can move board just enough to get damn battery out of there. Now it works perfect!
I can send you some piccs if you need help.
