Information on ink cartridges

The following tips help maintain HP ink cartridges and ensure consistent print quality.

●Keep all ink cartridges in the original sealed packages until they are needed.

●Turn off the HP All-in-One from the control panel. Do not turn off the device by turning off a power strip or unplugging the power cord from the HP All-in-One. If you improperly turn off the HP All-in-One, the print head assembly might not return to the correct position.

●Store ink cartridges at room temperature (15.6°-26.6° C or 60°-78° F).

●HP recommends that you do not remove the ink cartridges from the HP All-in-One until you have replacement cartridges available to install. If you are transporting the HP All-in-One make sure you leave the ink cartridges installed to avoid ink leakage from the print head assembly.

●Clean the print head when you notice a significant decrease in print quality.

●Do not clean the print head unnecessarily. This wastes ink and shortens the life of the cartridges.

●Handle ink cartridges carefully. Dropping, jarring, or rough handling during installation can cause temporary printing problems.

If you are experiencing problems with printing, you might have a problem with one of the print cartridges.
