HP 2210 Cartridges ?????

My HP 2210 recognizes refilled
cartridges as "alien." The first two cartridges weren't accepted by
the printer. The third cartridge ran the alignment routine and printed
a good test page.

My suspicion is that fierce competition has wrung all the profit from
the hardware, transferring that burden to their grossly-overpriced
proprietary ink cartridges. HP appears to have found a way to
discourage replacement with anything but a virgin cartridge from them.
I'm in awe of how they could recognize that I tampered with their
cartridge.

I have tried to reach the vendor when I couldn't find my directions. I
think I shall try again to reach them to pose this question.

I'm only working with the black cartridge, which gets most of my use.
The tri-color cartridge may be more difficult, even if one refills
only one color at a time.

I had anticipated a fussy, messy process to reload a cartridge. This
led me to the strategy to fill multiple cartridges at a time. Maybe
the old cartridges dried out. Maybe the cartridge that worked was the
one last removed.

Anyone have any advice on all this?
Thanks

I would say that you're posting to the wrong group. Suggest you repost to
