Change the ink absorber
An alert appears on the printer front panel when the ink absorber is reaching its maximum saturation and
again when the absorber should be changed.
NOTE: The absorber can become excessively dry and fail to function correctly in climates where the relative
humidity is consistently below 25%.
CAUTION: A saturated or excessively dry ink absorber can cause severe damage to the printheads and other
parts of the printer. HP strongly recommends that you promptly change the ink absorber when alerted.
