Using HP print cartridges

HP policy on non-HP print cartridges

Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of non-HP print cartridges, either new, refilled, or remanufactured. Since they are not HP products, Hewlett-Packard cannot influence their design or control their quality. Service or repair that is required as a result of using non-HP print cartridges will not be covered under the printer warranty.

Note

The warranty does not apply to defects resulting from software, interfacing, or parts not supplied by

 

Hewlett-Packard.

 

 

Storing print cartridges

Do not remove the print cartridge from its package until you are ready to use it. The shelf life of a print cartridge in an unopened package is approximately 2.5 years. The shelf life of a print cartridge in an opened package is approximately 6 months.

CAUTION To prevent damage to the print cartridge, do not expose it to light.

Print cartridge life expectancy

The life of the print cartridge depends on the amount of toner that your print jobs require. When printing text at 5% coverage, the standard print cartridge (C7115A) lasts an average of 2,500 pages. This assumes that you set the print density to 3 and disable EconoMode. (These are the default settings.)

Recycling print cartridges

To reduce landfill waste, Hewlett-Packard has adopted a recycling program for empty print cartridges. A postage-paid shipping label is inside the new HP LaserJet print cartridge box. Since 1990, the HP Printing Supplies Environmental Program has collected more than 48 million used HP LaserJet print cartridges that otherwise might have been discarded in the world’s landfills. To join this recycling effort, follow the instructions provided in the new print cartridge box.

To install a new HP print cartridge, see Changing the print cartridge or follow the instructions included in the print cartridge box. See the recycling information on the print cartridge box and the HP Printing Supplies Environmental Program included in the print cartridge box.

Saving toner

While in EconoMode, the printer uses less toner on each page. Selecting this option will extend the life of the print cartridge and reduce your cost per page, but it will reduce print quality. See Using EconoMode (Save Toner) for more information.
