The HP Officejet 8100 and 8600 printers have a cartridge protection feature. There is a tab named ‘HP Cartridge Protection’ in the toolbox, where you can choose if you want to enable or disable this function. The default setting here is enabled, which results in the cartridges only working in this particular printer. If you install the cartridges treated with this protection feature in another printer, they will not work, and a message pops up.
