You can remove it but HP is infamous for making them smaller than even Epson and Canon are now (even with chipped pads). Yours isn't terrible - yours uses the service station assembly so you do not have to touch waste ink (yay!!!) but your also costs more to repair because HP has the service cap and motors in it and it adds cost (BOO!!!). The HP P/N is ***CM751-40001***.

However, HP machines are a proper predicament to repair - unlike even the Epsons and Canons of the world with weak pad capacity, the procedures are ***KNOWN*** well enough we know the common ways, or we can get a leaked copy of the Canon/Epson service tools to repair the printers. HP doesn't have this and the procedure to reset is unknown. They skirt having to disclose this by replacing the printer and taking advantage of RtR laws that exempt the Amazons of the world from giving us the info by "replacing the product", so you also have a hard time finding the part. Unless it can be reset in the manufacturing mode or you can do home>? ~7 times (? 7 times brings up the support menu to do things like cartridge region swapping) you can't reset it due to the Amazon sized loophole HP has used for years. Yours nay never shut down but it’s a risk you run unless you reset the counter.
***It may also be triggered by the following:***
***Home 3x (reads like a support menu, may not be useful)***
***Cancel>Resume>Cancel>Resume (support or diagnostic?)***
iFixit has some guides for this but there's no info on how to bypass the ink system shutdown as HP has a real counter on these, whereas previous 564/920 machines were just allowed to flood with waste ink and you didn't have to mess with the WIC counter. It's not looking good in terms of finding a service manual.

You can remove it but HP is infamous for making them smaller than even Epson and Canon are now (even with chipped pads). The other issue is you need to gut the printer down to the base to even get to it. It’s a proper job on these HP inkjets that aren’t tricolor Deskjet machines.Some do have a maintenance assembly and you don’t need to do a full teardown but it’s a lot on HP machines. It’s bad enough I generally only recommend it if you can swap the service station out (anddon’t need to handle the pads) and you’re dedicated enough to deal with the teardown involved on the HP machines.

HP really doesn’t like to sell the pads piecemeal so you either have to buy a bottom base with the pads (if it isn’t done by swapping the service station) or clean them out and do so more frequently as every cleaning reduces their capacity as you can’t ever get all of the ink out.Ever. The other issue is the WIC counter — Epson and Canon have relatively defined procedures but HP doesn’t have one - you might be able to reset it in factory mode and clear it that way but it will probably erase the serial data and page counter in the process. There’s not really a good way to reset the WIC count on the HP inkjets sadly. Finding the manual is also notoriously hard for the inkjet machines and they usually lack the information to reset the counter or what tool is actually needed if you find one.
