HP (Hewlett-Packard) 370 Series Photo Printer User Manual


 
Follow these tips to help maintain HP print cartridges and ensure consistent print
quality:
When you remove a print cartridge from the printer, store it in a print cartridge
protector to prevent the ink from drying out.
In some countries/regions the cartridge protector is not included with the printer,
but comes with the Gray Photo cartridge that can be purchased separately. In
other countries/regions, the protector might be included with the printer.
Keep all unused print cartridges in their original sealed packages until they are
needed. Store print cartridges at room temperature (15–35 degrees C or 59–95
degrees F).
Do not remove the plastic tape covering the ink nozzles until you are ready to
install the print cartridge in the printer. If the plastic tape has been removed from
the print cartridge, do not attempt to reattach it. Reattaching the tape damages
the print cartridge.
Maintaining the quality of photo paper
For best results with photo paper, follow the guidelines in this section.
Storing photo paper
Store the photo paper in its original packaging or in a resealable plastic bag.
Store the packaged photo paper on a flat, cool, and dry surface.
Return unused photo paper to the plastic bag. Paper left in the printer or exposed
to the elements may curl.
Handling photo paper
Always hold photo paper by the edges to avoid fingerprints.
If the photo paper has curled edges, place it in its plastic storage bag and gently
bend it in the opposite direction of the curl until the paper lies flat.
Transporting the printer
It's easy to transport and set up the printer almost anywhere. Take it with you on
vacations and to family gatherings and social events to instantly print and share
photos with family and friends.
To make it even easier to print on the go, you can purchase these accessories:
HP Photosmart Internal Battery: Power the printer with a rechargeable battery
so you can print anywhere
HP Photosmart Automobile DC Adapter: Power the printer from the cigarette
lighter in a car.
HP Photosmart Carrying Case for compact photo printers: Carry the printer and
printing supplies together in this convenient travel case.

1 Turn off the printer.
2 Remove any memory cards from the memory card slots.
3 Remove all paper from the In and Out trays, then close the In and Out tray doors.
4 Push the printer screen down into the flat position.
