Piracy adjacent here. We have a printer, colour laserjet, that is from another ‘region’, was a really nice printer and we bought it just before moving and decided to bring it. There is an equivalent printer here with the same cartridges but we’ve found out they’re ‘region locked’. Brand is HP/Samsung.

I was wondering if anyone knows if third party cartridges which work around the chip also work around the region protection? We can actually region reset our printer, however 2/4 toner cartridges still have quite a bit in them so we’d like to use those up completely before switching.

Anyone know much about this?

    I am curious about this myself am interested in bypassing their region and cartridge locks. It’s not that I want to use their printers, I just want to cause mischief.
