Features and tips

Economical and energy saving

•• Individual ink tanks allow you to replace each cartridge separately.

•• The Energy Save mode and Auto Power-off feature are turned on by default, reducing energy use. You can change these settings from the Setup > Preferences menu on the printer display.

Print photos and documents

•• Print photos directly from a memory card in various sizes and papers. Just insert your memory

card into the memory card slot. Touch View & Print to browse and print photos from the printer display. Use the Edit menu to rotate a photo, crop a photo, or turn Photo Fix on and off.

•• Print documents and photos from software on a connected computer.

•• When receiving a low ink alert message, consider getting replacement cartridges to avoid possible printing delays. You do not have to replace ink cartridges until the print quality is unacceptable.

•• Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in several ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the printer and cartridges for printing, and in the printhead servicing process, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used. For more information, go to: www.hp.com/go/inkusage.

•• When installing new cartridges, make sure to remove the orange plastic pull tab first, and then twist off the orange plastic cap.
