Cleaning the print cartridge cradle

If you notice vertical streaks or lines on your prints, the print cartridge cradles may need to be cleaned.

Note: Be careful not to get ink on your hands or clothing.

To clean the print cartridge cradles:

1.Remove the print cartridges. If you need more information, see “Replacing or installing print cartridges” on page 9.

Note: To keep the ink from drying out, make sure you replace the print cartridges in the printer within thirty minutes.

2.Place the print cartridges (wide-side down) on a piece of paper to prevent staining any surfaces. Be careful not to touch or cover the print cartridge nozzles (on the bottom of the cartridge).

3.On the printer’s front panel, press Power to turn the printer power OFF.

4.Unplug the power cord from the back of the printer.

5.Position yourself so you can see the underside of the print cartridge holder.

6.Using clean, lightly moistened cotton swabs, gently wipe the underside of the print cartridge cradle where paper fibers, dust, and ink may collect and come in contact with the paper. Repeat this process until you no longer see any ink residue on a clean cotton swab.

7.Replace the print cartridges in the print cartridge cradle. If you need more information, see “Replacing or installing print cartridges” on page 9.

Cleaning the outside of the printer

To clean the outside of the printer, use a cloth that has been lightly moistened with water. Do not use any other type of cleaner, as cleansers may damage the printer’s finish.

1000 specifications

The HP 1000 was a series of minicomputers produced by Hewlett-Packard from the early 1970s through the late 1980s. Originally introduced in 1973, the HP 1000 aimed to provide high-performance computing capabilities within the reach of small to medium-sized businesses and specialized industries. This machine was distinctive not only for its advanced technology but also for the versatility it offered in various applications.

One of the standout features of the HP 1000 was its architecture. The system utilized a 16-bit word size, which allowed for efficient processing and execution of instructions. The HP 1000 employed a unique architecture known as the "Hewlett-Packard 1000 Microprogrammed System," which enabled it to execute a broad range of instructions efficiently. This made the HP 1000 particularly well-suited for data processing applications, scientific calculations, and high-level computing tasks.

The HP 1000 series was fully modular, allowing users to customize and expand their systems as needed. It supported various input/output devices, memory sizes, and even offered options for solid-state disk drives, which were cutting-edge for that time. The system’s modularity not only provided flexibility but also enhanced maintainability, enabling users to swap out components without significant downtime.

Another key aspect of the HP 1000 was its support for a wide range of programming languages, including FORTRAN, COBOL, and BASIC. This made it appealing to a variety of users, from engineers who needed to perform complex calculations to business analysts focused on data management. Additionally, the HP 1000 was designed to run multiple jobs simultaneously, making it a precursor to modern multitasking operating systems.

Networking capabilities were also an essential characteristic of the HP 1000. The system could be connected to various peripherals and terminals, increasing its functionality in a networked environment. This helped businesses leverage the power of shared resources, facilitating collaborative projects and data sharing across departments.

In conclusion, the HP 1000 series played a significant role in the evolution of computing technology. Its modular design, robust architecture, support for multiple programming languages, and networking capabilities made it a versatile tool for a wide range of applications. For over a decade, the HP 1000 series marked an important chapter in the history of computing, laying the groundwork for advancements in minicomputer technology that would follow.
