Cartridge 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.

Paper loading tips

•Load a stack of paper (not just one page). All of the paper in the stack should be the same size and type to avoid a paper jam.

•Load paper with side to be printed on facing up.

•Ensure that paper loaded in the input tray lays flat and the edges are not bent or torn.

•Adjust the paper-width guide in the input tray to fit snugly against all paper. Make sure the paper-width guide does not bend the paper in the input tray.

•For more information, see Load media.

Printer settings tips

•On the Paper/Quality tab of the print driver, select the appropriate paper type and quality from the Media drop down menu.

•Click the Advanced button, and select the appropriate Paper Size from the Paper/ Output drop-down menu.

•Click the HP All-in-One desktop icon to open the Printer Software.

NOTE: You can also access the Printer Software by clicking Start > Programs

Notes

•Genuine HP ink cartridges are designed and tested with HP printers and papers to help you easily produce great results, time after time.

NOTE: HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP supplies. Product service or repairs required as a result of using a non-HP supply will not be covered under warranty.

If you believe you purchased genuine HP ink cartridges, go to:

•Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only.

NOTE: When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable.

•Software settings selected in the print driver only apply to printing, they do not apply to copying or scanning.
