replacing print cartridges
Before buying replacement print cartridges, verify the correct part numbers. When a print cartridge is empty, leave the empty print cartridge in the print cartridge cradle until it is replaced. The printer requires both print cartridges to operate.
Warning! Keep both new and used print cartridges out of the reach of children.
To replace a print cartridge: 1. Verify that the In tray is down. 2. Press the Power button to turn on the printer. 3. Open the top cover. The cradle moves to the center of the printer. 4. Raise the cradle latch. 5. Lift the print cartridge out of the print cartridge cradle and discard it.
1. press Power button 2. open top cover 3. raise cradle latch 4. lift print cartridge out of cradle
6. Remove the replacement print cartridge from its packaging and carefully remove the plastic tape.
1. black cartridge 2. color cartridge 3. ink nozzles 4. copper contacts 5. plastic tape Caution! Do not touch the print cartridge ink nozzles or copper contacts. Touching these parts will result in clogs, ink failure, and bad electrical connections. Do not remove the copper strips. They are required electrical contacts.
7. Push the print cartridge firmly into the cradle.
1. copper contacts
8. Secure the cradle latch. 9. Close the top cover.
10. Print a calibration page to align the print cartridges.
Caution! If you are in the middle of printing, and stop to change a print cartridge, your current print job will be cancelled.
If the Print Cartridge Status light continues to blink after installing a new print cartridge, verify the part number on the cartridge. For information on how to recycle your empty print cartridge, see print cartridge recovery.
calibrating print cartridges
After installing a print cartridge, calibrate the print cartridges to ensure great print quality. Calibrating the print cartridges takes about two minutes and requires you to examine two test pages. To calibrate print cartridges: 1. Go to printer maintenance. 2. Click the calibrate printer button. 3. Click calibrate, then follow the onscreen instructions.
automatically cleaning print cartridges
If your printed pages are missing lines or dots, or if they contain ink streaks, the print cartridges need to be cleaned. Follow the steps below to clean the print cartridges automatically: 1. Go to printer maintenance. 2. Click the clean cartridges button. 3. Click clean, then follow the onscreen directions. If your printouts are still missing lines or dots after cleaning, one of the print cartridges may be low on ink. If ink streaks still appear on your printouts after cleaning, the print cartridges and cradle may need to be cleaned manually.
Caution! Clean print cartridges only when it is necessary. Unnecessary cleaning wastes ink and shortens the life of the cartridge.
manually cleaning print cartridges
If the printer is used in a dusty environment, a small amount of debris may accumulate inside the case. This debris can include dust, hair, carpet, or clothing fibers. When debris gets on the print cartridges and cradle, it can cause ink streaks and smudges on printed pages. Ink streaking is easily corrected by manually cleaning the cartridges and cradle.
gathering cleaning supplies
You will need the following items to clean the print cartridges and cradle:
q
Clean water. Cotton swabs or other soft, lint-free material that will not stick to the cartridges.
q
Be careful not to get ink on your hands or clothing as you clean.
preparing to clean
1. Press the Power button to turn on the printer, then raise the top cover. The cradle moves to the center of the printer. 2. Disconnect the power cord from the back of the printer. 3. Remove the print cartridges and place them on a piece of paper with the nozzle plate facing up. Do not leave the cartridges outside the printer for more than 30 minutes.
Caution! Do not touch the print cartridge ink nozzles or copper contacts. Touching these parts will result in clogs, ink failure, and bad electrical connections. Do not remove the copper strips. They are required electrical contacts.
cleaning the print cartridges and print cartridge cradle
1. Lightly moisten a cotton swab with distilled water. 2. Clean the face and edges of the first print cartridge with the swab, as shown in the following illustration.
Do Not wipe the nozzle plate.
1. nozzle plate 2. face and edges of print cartridge
3. Inspect the face and edges of the print cartridge for fibers. Repeat steps 1 and 2 above if fibers are still present. 4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for the second print cartridge. 5. Wipe the underside of the print cartridge cradle walls using clean, moistened cotton swabs. Repeat this process until no ink residue appears on a clean swab.
1. print cartridge cradle 2. print cartridge cradle walls
6. Insert the print cartridges and close the printer's top cover. 7. Connect the power cord to the back of the printer.
8. Print a calibration page. 9. Repeat the cleaning procedure if ink streaks continue to appear on printed pages.
maintaining print cartridges
The following suggestions will help maintain HP print cartridges and ensure consistent print quality:
q
Keep all print cartridges in their sealed packages in an upright position until they are needed. Print cartridges should be stored at room temperature (6078 degrees F or 15.626.6 degrees C). Do not remove the plastic tape covering the ink nozzles until you are ready to install the print cartridge in the printer. If the plastic tape has been removed from the print cartridge, do not attempt to reattach it. Reattaching the tape damages the ink nozzles. If print cartridges are removed from their sealed containers, store them in an airtight container. For best results, store the black cartridge with the nozzle side up and the color cartridge with the nozzle side down. Do not allow anything to touch the nozzle plate. Once the print cartridges are installed in the printer, leave them in the print cartridge cradle unless they are being manually cleaned. This prevents ink from evaporating or clogging the print cartridges. Do not unplug the printer until printing is complete and the printer is turned off. Use the Power button to turn off the printer.

environmental statement
Hewlett-Packard continuously improves the design processes of its Deskjet printers to minimize the negative impact on the office environment and on the communities where printers are manufactured, shipped, and used.
reduction and elimination
Paper use: The printer's manual two-sided printing capability reduces paper usage and the resulting demands on natural resources. This printer is suited for the use of recycled papers in accordance with DIN 19309. Recycled paper: All paper documentation for this printer is printed on recycled paper. Ozone: Ozone-depleting chemicals such as CFCs have been eliminated from HewlettPackard's manufacturing processes.
recycling
Design for recycling has been incorporated into this printer. The number of materials has been kept to a minimum while ensuring proper functionality and reliability. Dissimilar materials have been designed to separate easily. Fasteners and other connections are easy to locate, access, and remove using common tools. High priority parts have been designed to access quickly for efficient disassembly and repair. Printer packaging: The packaging materials for this printer have been selected to provide maximum protection for the least cost possible, while attempting to minimize environmental impact and facilitate recycling. The rugged design of the HP Deskjet printer assists in minimizing both packaging materials and damage rates. Plastic parts: All major plastics and plastic parts are marked according to international standards. All plastic parts used in the printer housing and chassis are technically recyclable and all use a single polymer. Product longevity: To ensure the longevity of your HP Deskjet printer, HP provides the following:
q
Extended warranty: See limited warranty. Replacement parts and consumables are available for three (3) years (five [5] years in Europe) after production has stopped. Product take-back: To return this product to HP at the end of its useful life, go to www.hp.com/go/recycle. To return empty print cartridges to HP, see hp print cartridge recovery program.

energy consumption
This printer was designed with energy conservation in mind. This printer averages 4 watts in standby mode. Not only does this save natural resources, but it also saves money without affecting the high performance of the printer. The default activation period for standby mode is less than five (5) minutes. This product qualifies for the ENERGY STAR® Program (U.S. and Japan). ENERGY STAR is a voluntary program established to encourage the development of energyefficient office products.
ENERGY STAR is a US registered service mark of the USEPA. As an ENERGY STAR partner, Hewlett-Packard Company has determined that this product meets ENERGY STAR Guidelines for energy efficiency. Energy consumption in off-mode: When the printer is off, a minimal amount of energy is still being consumed. Energy consumption can be prevented by turning the printer power off, then disconnecting the end of the printer power cord from the electrical source.
print cartridge recovery
Customers interested in recycling their genuine HP print cartridges can participate in HP's empty print cartridge return and recycle program. HP offers this program in the United States, Puerto Rico, France, Germany, and Singapore, more countries than any other print cartridge manufacturer in the world. This program is provided as a free service to HP customers as an environmentally sound solution for these products at end-of life. To participate, simply request postage-paid return envelopes or bulk boxes via the Web at www.hp.com/go/recycle. Customers will be asked for their name, phone number, address, and how many bulk boxes or envelopes they would like. Postagepaid envelopes and/or bulk boxes will be shipped within two days. Because HP's unique recycling processes are very sensitive to material contamination, we cannot take back and recycle cartridges from other manufacturers. The end products of the recycling process are used in the manufacture of new products, and HP must ensure the composition of the material is consistent. To do that, we recycle only HP original cartridges. This program does not extend to refilled cartridges. Returned cartridges are separated for purification into raw materials for use in other industries to manufacture new products. Examples of products made from recycled HP print cartridge materials include automobile parts, trays used in microchip fabrication processes, copper wire, steel plates, and the precious materials used in electronics. Depending on the model, HP is able to recycle up to 65% of the print cartridge by weight. The remaining parts that cannot be recycled (ink, foam and composite parts) are disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner.
