Ok, try to peel the chip off, and replace it with one of the chips from the toner casettes.

you might be able to fool the machine so that it thinks there is a new non hp imaging drum installed

in the hp 2840 (internally the same machine) you will be able to choose "ok continue with non hp material" on the display

You will need to replace the image drum. This is either due to the face that you have exceeded the number of pages/cycles that the drum supports or the drum has damage. If this is the drum that came with the printer, it is likely they shipped it with "starter" supplies which last a fraction of the time as the regular "full retail" replacement supplies. A URL for HP's instructions on how to replace tn image drum on the HPCLJ 2550 series follows:

Yellow light is blinking?
If the bottom amber colored light is blinking, the imaging drum needs replaced.

If the yellow print cartridge light is blinking, then replace the print cartridge (yellow toner).

Imaging drum LED stays on continuously
When the Imaging Drum LED stays solid on, it means your imaging drum is running low and will soon need to be replaced. You can unseat, then reseat it and see if that solves the problem.

If everything is printing fine, don't do anything until the LED starts flashing. HP will tell you to replace the drum immediately, but mine was on for a year, with moderate printing, before going to the flashing, "empty" state. This is the same advice as for toner cartridges, which are sometimes as much as 50% full when the light comes on.

However, I suggest sourcing a new drum so you can be prepared for when the existing one goes out. Also, despite HP's warnings of gloom and doom, aftermarket products work acceptably.

Page count unreasonable
Re you using genuine HP NEW cartridges? If not, you must make sure that whoever has re manufactured the ones you are using has replaced the chip on the cartridge. This tells the machine how many copies are on the cartridge.
