Photo Tray

The HP DeskJet 950C uses HP’s exclusive PhotoREt technology to enhance your color photos, giving you exceptional quality pictures when you print on HP Premium Plus Photo Paper, Glossy 4 x 6 in., 102 x 152 mm (with tear-off tab).

You can place up to 24 sheets of HP Photo Paper into the photo tray. The first time 4 x 6 in. photo paper is used, the printer will calibrate the Photo Tray by feeding through a blank sheet. You can save the blank sheet for future use. See pages 10 and 11 for specific instructions on printing photos.

Printer Maintenance Tips

Because the printer ejects ink onto the paper in a fine mist, ink smudges will eventually appear on the printer case. To remove smudges, stains, and/or dried ink from the exterior of the printer, use a soft cloth moistened with water.

When cleaning your printer, keep these tips in mind:

Do not clean the interior of the printer. Keep all fluids away from the interior.

Do not use household cleaners or detergent. In the event that a household cleaner or detergent is used on the printer, wipe the printer’s exterior surfaces with a soft cloth moistened with water.

Do not lubricate the print cartridge support rod. Noise is normal when the print cartridge cradles slide back and forth.

For information on cleaning print cartridges and the print cartridge cradle, see page 30.
