install or replace a print cartridge
To get the best performance from your printer, use only genuine HP factory-filled
print cartridges.
To get maximum use from your print cartridges, turn off the printer when it is not
in use. Do not unplug the printer or turn off the power source (such as a power
strip) until the Printer Status light is off. Waiting to turn off the printer allows it to
store the print cartridges properly.
1 If the printer is off, press the O
N button on the printer’s control panel to
turn on the printer.
2 Lift the main cover of the printer. The print cartridge cradle moves to the
middle of the printer.
3 If you are replacing a print cartridge, push down and pull outward on the
print cartridge to unsnap it from the print cartridge cradle. Remove the
print cartridge and store, recycle, or discard it. For information about
recycling print cartridges, go to www.hp.com/recycle.
4 Take the new print cartridge out of its package.
