Leave the printer off for less than two weeks

CAUTION If you need to leave the printer unattended for any reason, ensure that the printer is on, the ink cartridges are full, and the waste ink bottle is empty, so that automatic maintenance (performed after the first 20 hours without printing and every 3 days) can be completed successfully for the time you are not present. If needed, install new ink cartridges. The ink cartridges that you replace can be reused when you return to your printer, if they still contain ink.

To clean the ink system you will need the HP 790 Ink System Cleaning Kit (part number CB296A). This kit includes:

●Six ink system purging cartridges

●Six cleaning liquid cartridges

Clean ink system

This option allows you to clean dry ink from the ink system with cleaning liquid after the printer is powered on after being stored for less than two weeks.

CAUTION Do not open or close the rear covers or change the position of levers while the Service Clean process is being performed, or the operation may have to be restarted from the beginning. This will result in the waste of the cleaning liquid. If the Service Clean has to be restarted, new cleaning liquid cartridges will be needed.
