Tips for print success

To successfully print, the HP cartridges should be functioning properly with sufficient ink, the paper should be loaded correctly, and the product should have the appropriate settings.

Ink tips

Use genuine HP ink cartridges.

Install both the black and tri-color cartridges correctly. For more information, see Replace the cartridges.

Check the estimated ink levels in the cartridges to make sure there is sufficient ink. For more information, see Check the estimated ink levels.

For more information, see Improve print quality.

If you are seeing ink smears on the back of the pages that you printed, use the Tools menu on the printer display to clean.

NOTE: If you do not see the home screen, press the Back button until you can see it.

From the Settings menu, select Tools.
