I'm not sure what you mean by "reset" and whether you are speaking of ink jet or laser cartridges. From my experience all HP laser cartridges have a small chip (with a little circuitry) that counts down your pages and when it decides your cartridge is out of toner you cannot "reset" that chip, you can only replace it, so like when you refill the cartridge. Some of the HP laser printers let you override these toner level chips (my HP 1518ni does) but in many laser printers you are stuck when the chip counts down to '0' pages. Some printers will run if you remove the chip from the cartridge but from my experience most will not.
Ink jet cartridges are somewhat similar but I gave up on ink jet printers several years ago. I know for some brands (Epson?) you can buy a small tool that somehow resets the cartridge chip (so if you refill cartridges yourself); possibly there is something similar for HP ink jet cartridges.

Printing off computer

Most likely your new cartridge has a damaged head. The tiny bit of electronics could have a fault, and therefore not be read properly by the printer. Try taking the cartridge out and cleaning the head with rubbing alcohol - both on the cartridge and the printer - then put it back in. If that doesn't work, try a different cartridge.

I bought HP 940 XL some months ago and my printer says the date has expired

What date has expired? Are you talking about the cartridge date? If yes then thats what HP is known best for: Making people buy cartridges all the time. Its said that most cartridges work fine even after their expiration date so you should try resetting the date on the cartridge. This explains it: http://www.ehow.com/how_7354802_reset-hp-940-chip.html

Is it possible to use non HP ink in ths printer? Tried using "remanufactured ink", and concluded that this printer may be programed to block the use of NON HP INK.

It is always recommended to use genuine HP cartridges.
As if we will use the non HP or refilled cartridges, it will reduce the life of the printer.
And we will get an error "cartridge problem".
Plaese use the below cartridges, which are compatible with this printer.

HP 02 Black Twin Pack 1320 pages
HP 02 Color Combo See single 02 inks
HP 02 Cyan 400 pages

After refilling i attached the cartridge but not printing printer showing "check cartridge" i have done refilling like this 3 times without any problem but this time i am facing this problem .Kindly...

search for the specific cartridge you have and keywords such as "refill, reset expiration, contacts" for instructions on how to fool the printer into thinking the cartridge isnt expired yet. This works for most HPs:  http://www.refill4.com/refillinstructons/cartridges/hp-56-27-21-57-28-22.htm

Reset HP 7110 to factory settings

usually setting your computer to a date before the expiration date of the cartridge. If your printer has a date function try this first on your printer.

Won't work displays Right Cartridge incorrect. Re inserted a few times.

It seems that printer expires the cartridges after about 18 months even if it's finished or not ,you will have to buy another cartridge to reset it.

http://blog.loaz.com/timwang/index.php/2006/02/11/error_right_cartridge_incorrect_printer

A quick reset without buying a new cartridge is to use a discarded empty cartridge in the printer to reset the printer and then reinsert the cartridge you have now.

Expired HP printer cartridges BEWARE SPAM ALERT 1-800-532-4187

I have the identical problem with an HP Business Inkjet 1100.

Once cartridges were past date, the printer would no longer print from Windows XP. It would however work perfectly from Linux.

I did not find an ini file as mentioned in other posts, and I really did not want to open the printer as it worked fine in Linux.

The following fixed the problem:

1) Click on Start button, run
2) Type in regedit, enter
3) Navigate to HKLM/software/Hewlett-Packard/HP Printers/HPWH Toolbox/Common
4) In the right panel, right click on Ink, pick modify
5) Change 0100 to 0000
6) Save and reboot

Top Solution thanks - Take that HP!

Slight amendment as battery is hard to remove:

The battery is accessed by opening top then can be seen on extreme left at front. No need to take it out, slip a strip of plastic like an old credit card under the clip on top of battery to insulate it. Then do a soft reset (# and 6 and power down) with the battery insulated. Power up - Power down, remove insulator power up. Eureka!
