Can you play DVD region 1 on a Blu-ray player?
A region 1 DVD is intended to be used in North America. Any BluRay player purchased in North America should play the disc. Bluray players from other regions such as Europe will be expecting to play discs marked with a different region code so are unlikely to pay a region 1 DVD.

North American blu-ray player play region 2 bluray discs?
North America is classed as region 1 for DVD, Bluray and games coding. The codes are there specifically to prevent discs from one region being used in another. Region 2 covers Europe. There have been a handful of DVD players that did not check the region code and would play discs from any region. Bluray players appear to be far more tightly controlled and it is very unlikely that any commercially available player will allow the coding to be bypassed. It is possible that players can be modified to remove the coding restrictions but these are unofficial modifications, void warranties and cannot be guaranteed to work continuously. As frustrating as the region coding is, the easiest and lowest cost route to take is to buy discs intended for use on your own player. Note that as the region coding is a commercial protection, non commercial DVD and Bluray discs do not have the code and can be handled by any player. That is subject to the player and the television handling European 50Hz content. The US normally uses 60Hz video so there is still no guarantee that your specific setup will work. It's a case of studying the manuals to make sure.

How do you change the region setting on an HP Officejet 7210 from US to European region?
The region setting on HP printers is not user configurable. In some cases, HP technical support can walk you through the process over the phone. It requires entering several lines of code that are specific to your printer model and serial number. You cannot normally use ink purchased from a region other than where you purchased the printer from. If you cannot change the region setting with the help of HP, you can purchase ink from the area that you obtained the printer, it will work in your printer. Refilling your working cartridges is a short-term solution as well.
