Step 7 — Align Your Print Cartridges

 

Before you start using your HP OfficeJet, you need to align the print

 

cartridges to ensure the best copy and print quality.

 

When you turn on your HP OfficeJet for the first time, you will see the

 

message “Initializing,” followed by the message “Press Resume to Align

 

Cartridges” on the front-panel display.

NOTE

 

If the messages are not in your language, you can change the language before

 

aligning your cartridges. Follow the instructions provided later under “Changing the

 

Front-Panel Language.”

 

 

1If “Press Resume to Align Cartridges” or “Align Cartridges” appears on the front-panel display of your HP OfficeJet, press the Select/Resume button on the front panel of the unit.

The HP OfficeJet prints a page with three sets of paired lines on it. A set of numbered, horizontal lines appears at the top of the page, and two sets of vertical lines, each with a unique letter, appear in the middle and at the bottom of the page.

2Follow the instructions on the page above each set of paired lines.

Congratulations! You have finished setting up your HP OfficeJet. Now you are ready to start using it.
