Caution! Do not remove both ink cartridges at the same time.

Remove and clean them one at a time.

Make sure you have the following materials available:

•A clean, lint-free cloth

•Distilled, filtered, or bottled water (do not use tap water, as it may contain contaminants that can damage the printheads)

Caution! Be careful not to get ink on your hands or clothing.

1Turn the unit on and open the print-carriage access door. The print carriage moves to the center.

2After the print carriage has moved to the center, unplug the power cord from the back of the unit.

Warning! It is very important that you disconnect the printer from its electrical power source before touching the ink cartridge contacts. Electrical shock or severe damage to the printer can occur if you touch the contacts while there is electrical power to the printer. Do not use the On button to turn the printer off.

3Press the gray button to release the ink cartridge, then pull it up and out of its slot.

4Inspect the ink cartridge contacts and the contacts inside the ink cartridge socket for ink and debris buildup.

5Clean any visible ink deposits with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. If necessary, moisten the cloth with one drop of water.

6Place the ink cartridge back into the holder.

7Repeat if necessary for the other ink cartridge.

8Close the door and plug in the unit.

Because you removed an ink cartridge from its holder, the HP Officejet needs to align the printheads.

9After the message appears in the front-panel display, press Enter to align the printheads.

A page is printed to confirm alignment.
