4. Software Installation and Connectivity

For initial setup and full functionality, it is recommended to download and install the HP Smart app on your computer or mobile device. The app will guide you through the network setup (Wi-Fi) or USB connection process.

• Wireless Setup: Follow the instructions in the HP Smart app to connect your printer to your Wi-Fi network. This enables wireless printing from multiple devices.
• USB Setup: If connecting via USB, connect the USB cable (not included) from the printer to your computer only when prompted by the HP Smart app or driver installation.

Operating the Printer

1. Loading Paper

Open the input tray and extend the paper guides. Load up to 150 sheets of standard A4 paper into the tray. Adjust the paper guides to fit the paper stack snugly without bending the paper. The printer supports various media types, including envelopes.

2. Printing Documents

Once the printer is connected and drivers are installed, you can print documents from your computer or mobile device. For mobile printing and scanning, use the HP Smart app.

• From a Computer: Open the document you wish to print, select "Print" from the application's menu, choose the HP LaserJet M110w, and adjust print settings as needed (e.g., number of copies, paper size, duplex printing).
• From a Mobile Device: Use the HP Smart app to select documents or photos from your device's storage or cloud services, then send them to the printer.

The printer supports automatic duplex (two-sided) printing, which can be enabled through your print settings.

Maintenance

1. Toner Cartridge Replacement

When the toner level is low, the printer's status lights or the HP Smart app will indicate that the cartridge needs replacement. To replace the cartridge:

1. Open the toner access door.
2. Carefully pull out the old toner cartridge.
3. Unpack the new HP original toner cartridge and gently shake it side-to-side to distribute the toner.
4. Insert the new cartridge into the printer until it locks into place.
5. Close the toner access door.

Consider enrolling in HP Instant Ink for Toner service to automatically receive new toner cartridges when yours run low, potentially saving up to 50% on toner costs. This service includes recycling of used cartridges.

2. Cleaning the Printer

Regular cleaning helps maintain print quality and extends the life of your printer.

• Exterior: Wipe the exterior surfaces of the printer with a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with water. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Interior: Refer to the HP Smart app or the online support documentation for specific instructions on cleaning internal components if print quality issues persist. Avoid touching the transfer roller or other sensitive internal parts.
