Replace the print cartridges

When a print cartridge approaches the estimated end of its useful life, you can continue printing with the current print cartridge until it no longer yields acceptable print quality.

Once an HP print cartridge has reached “very low’, the HP Premium Protection Warranty on that supply has ended. All print defects or print cartridge failures incurred when an HP supply is used in continue at very low mode will not be considered to be defects in materials or workmanship in the supply under the HP Print Cartridge Warranty Statement.

1.Some error messages or status messages

cause the product to rotate the print cartridge carousel to the affected cartridge automatically. If the print cartridge that needs to be replaced is not in the correct position, press the Cartridge button to rotate the print cartridge carousel to the cartridge color that you want to replace.

Understand paper use

This product supports a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines in this user guide. Paper or print media that does not meet these guidelines might cause poor print quality, increased jams, and premature wear on the product.

For best results, use only HP-brand paper and print media designed for laser printers or multiuse. Do not use paper or print media made for inkjet printers. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of other brands of media because HP cannot control their quality.

It is possible for paper to meet all of the guidelines in this user guide and still not produce satisfactory results. This might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and/or humidity levels, or other variables over which Hewlett-Packard has no control.

CAUTION: Using paper or print media that does not meet Hewlett-Packard's specifications might cause problems for the product, requiring repair. This repair is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard warranty or service agreements.
