Paper troubleshooting

To help avoid paper jams, only use paper types that are recommended for your HP All-in-One. For a list of recommended papers, see the onscreen HP Image Zone Help, or go to www.hp.com/support.

Do not load curled or wrinkled paper, or paper with bent or torn edges, into the paper tray. For more information, see Avoid paper jams.

If paper does become jammed in your device, follow these instructions to clear the paper jam.

1.Press in the tab on the left side of the rear clean-out door and pull it toward you to remove it.

Caution Trying to clear a paper jam from the front of the HP All-in-One can damage the print mechanism. Always clear paper jams through the rear clean-out door.

2.Gently pull the paper out of the rollers.

Caution If the paper tears when you are removing it from the rollers, check the rollers and wheels for torn pieces of paper that might be remaining inside the device. If you do not remove all the pieces of paper from the HP All-in-One, more paper jams are likely to occur.

3.Replace the rear clean-out door. Gently push the door forward until it snaps into place.

4.Press On / Resume to continue the current job.

Print cartridge troubleshooting

If you are experiencing problems with printing, you might have a problem with one of the print cartridges. Try the following:

1.Remove and reinsert the print cartridges and verify that they are fully inserted and locked in place.

2.If the problem persists, print a self-test report to determine if there is a problem with the print cartridges.

3.If the self-test report shows a problem, clean the print cartridges.

4.If the problem persists, clean the copper-colored contacts of the print cartridges.
