Introduction
Use HP Cartridge Policy and Cartridge Protection to control which cartridges are installed in the printer and
protect the cartridges that are installed from theft. These features are available with HP FutureSmart versions 3
and later.
●
Cartridge Policy: This feature protects the printer from counterfeit toner cartridges by allowing only genuine
HP cartridges to be used with the printer. Using genuine HP cartridges ensures the best possible print
quality. When someone installs a cartridge that is not a genuine HP cartridge, the printer control panel
displays a message that the cartridge is unauthorized and it provides information explaining how to
proceed.
●
Cartridge Protection: This feature permanently associates toner cartridges with a specic printer, or eet of
printers, so they cannot be used in other printers. Protecting cartridges protects your investment. When
this feature is enabled, if someone attempts to transfer a protected cartridge from the original printer into
an unauthorized printer, that printer will not print with the protected cartridge. The printer control panel
displays a message that the cartridge is protected, and it provides information explaining how to proceed.
CAUTION: After enabling cartridge protection for the printer, all subsequent toner cartridges installed in
the printer are automatically and permanently protected. To avoid protecting a new cartridge, disable the
feature before installing the new cartridge.

Both features are o by default. Follow these procedures to enable or disable them.
