Ink Cartridges

The printer's six ink cartridges provide yellow, magenta, black, cyan, light cyan and light magenta ink to the printheads. Ink cartridges require no maintenance or cleaning. As long as each ink cartridge is inserted correctly into its slot, the ink will flow to the printheads.

NOTE Using non-HP inks may cause poor print quality, printer malfunction, printer failure, or a safety hazard.

The valid period of ink is 3 months from the install by date.

Do not shake ink cartridges before use.

All six color cartridges must be installed. If one of the cartridges is removed, a new one must be installed.

Ink cartridges must be installed in all six slots. The positions of ink cartridges are specified by color. See the figure below.
