So you happen to install new
replacement HP 131A toners in your HP LaserJet Pro 200 M251nw or HP LaserJet Pro 200 M276nw but
after your did, your machine doesn’t stop notifying you that it’s toner level
is still low or that the cartridges are missing. Hold your horses and don’t
dial the phone yet to rant the customer service of the online shop you bought
your hp toner cartridges.
First and foremost, let me
explain that this type of error happens most of the time especially when you’re
installing alternative printer cartridges such as remanufactured or compatible
toners. This doesn’t mean though that the product is defective, it just happens
that the HP LaserJet Pro 200 M251nw or HP LaserJet Pro 200 M276nw are programmed
to recognize HP genuine supplies only or the OEM HP toner cartridges. That’s
why when you try to install new alternative cartridges into it, the printer will
not recognize it immediately. So you have to do a troubleshooting technique
that involves resetting your machine. And that’s what we’re going to provide
you for this day, here’s an instruction on how to reset your HP LaserJet Pro
200 M251nw or HP LaserJet Pro 200 M276nw during this type of error.
The following procedures are from

By resetting your printer, you
might also resolve certain errors or issues when printing, scanning, or faxing,
such as: (1) the printer does not turn off, (2) the printer does not respond to
any button presses and (3) you cannot close any other error message or error
code that displays on the printer control panel.

- Step 1 - Press the Power button to turn on the product.

there are no problems in it. Just maintain your calm and you can solve this
problem.
