Solutions to Fix HP Printer Error 10.00.10
To fix the HP printer error 10.00.10, try any of the solutions below:
1. Remove the Toner Cartridge Packing and the Protective Stripes
New toner cartridges come with orange strips as well as plastic clips that protect the item from getting damaged. These strips and clips have to be removed once you are about to install the toner cartridge into your HP printer. If you fail to remove them, your printer will be unable to detect the cartridge. This will lead to the error under discussion.
The clips can be easily located as they stick out and are visible to see. The protective strip, on the other hand, can be found at the side of your toner cartridge. The strip comes with an orange ring which has to be pulled if you want the strip removed. In some cases, the strip comes with a cellophane piece.

2. Pull out any Compressed Metal Contact
As we said earlier, the contacts on your cartridge must connect correctly with those in your printer for your device to function properly. Therefore, if the metal connector inside your printer is compressed backward, your printer will not function well.
To resolve this, locate the compressed contact and pull it out gently. Ensure that you turn off your printer and unplug it completely before doing this to avoid electric shock.
Once you have pulled out the contact or contacts as the case may be, reinstall your toner cartridge. Ensure that it connects properly with the contacts within the printer.
3. Replace the Cartridge if it is Broken or Damaged
If your toner cartridge is damaged or broken at either of its sides especially in the slots that slide into the printer, then your printer might not work.
Therefore, take out your cartridge and examine the sides; check if any piece is broken. If you find any damage, the only solution is to replace the cartridge.
4. Update your HP Printer Software
If your firmware is outdated, it could also lead to this HP printer error 10.00.10. Therefore, you need to update your printer’s firmware.

HP Printer Error 10.00.10 FAQs
Why does my HP printer Says Used Supply in Use?

What does it mean when Printer Says Memory is Low?
When your printer says the memory is low, it is a result of the Microsoft Window’s printer driver memory setting being too low.
