Maintenance

Replacing Ink Cartridges

When an ink cartridge runs low or is empty, replace it promptly to ensure optimal print quality. Refer to the "Installing Ink Cartridges" section in Setup for detailed steps. Use genuine HP ink cartridges for best results.

Cleaning the Printer

• Exterior: Wipe the exterior surfaces of the printer with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
• Scanner Glass: Clean the scanner glass with a soft cloth lightly dampened with glass cleaner. Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the glass.
• Printhead Cleaning: If print quality issues (streaks, faded colors) occur, use the printer software to initiate a printhead cleaning cycle. This helps clear clogged nozzles.
