Follow these tips to help maintain HP print cartridges and ensure consistent print quality:

When you remove a print cartridge from the printer, store it in a print cartridge protector to prevent the ink from drying out.

In some countries/regions the cartridge protector is not included with the printer, but comes with the HP Gray Photo cartridge that can be purchased separately. In other countries/regions, the protector is included with the printer.

Keep all unused print cartridges in their original sealed packages until they are needed. Store print cartridges at room temperature (15–35 degrees C or 59–95 degrees F).

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 print cartridge.

Maintaining the quality of photo paper

For best results with photo paper, follow the guidelines in this section.

Storing photo paper

Store the photo paper in its original packaging or in a resealable plastic bag.

Store the packaged photo paper on a flat, cool, and dry surface.

Return unused photo paper to the plastic bag. Paper left in the printer or exposed to the elements may curl.

Handling photo paper

Always hold photo paper by the edges to avoid fingerprints.

If the photo paper has curled edges, place it in its plastic storage bag and gently bend it in the opposite direction of the curl until the paper lies flat.

Transporting the printer

It's easy to transport and set up the printer almost anywhere. Take it with you on vacations and to family gatherings and social events to instantly print and share photos with family and friends.

To make it even easier to print on the go, you can purchase these accessories:

HP Photosmart Internal Battery: Power the printer with a rechargeable battery so you can print anywhere.

HP Photosmart Automobile DC Adapter: Power the printer from the cigarette lighter in a car.

HP Photosmart Carrying Case for compact photo printers: Carry the printer and printing supplies together in this convenient travel case.

To transport the printer:

1.Turn off the printer.

2.Remove any memory cards from the memory card slots.

3.Remove all paper from the In and Out trays, then close the In and Out tray doors.
