Tips for copy and scan success
Use the following tips to copy and scan successfully:
●Keep the glass and the back of the lid clean. The scanner interprets anything it detects on the glass as
part of the image.
●Load your original print-side down on the scanner glass and align it with the marking on the rear left
corner of the glass.
●To make a large copy of a small original, scan the original into the computer, resize the image in the
scanning software, and then print a copy of the enlarged image.
●If you want to adjust scan size, output type, scan resolution, or le type, and so on, start scan from the
printer software.
●To avoid incorrect or missing scanned text, make sure the brightness is set appropriately in the
software.
●If you want to scan a document with several pages into one le instead of multiple les, start the scan
with the printer software instead of selecting Scan from the printer display, or use document feeder to
scan.
●If you scan from a mobile camera, make sure to scan in a well-lit area so that the original has good
contrast with the surface it is lying on.

Information on cartridges and the printhead
The following tips help maintain HP cartridges and ensure consistent print quality.
●The instructions in this guide are for replacing cartridges, and are not intended for rst time installation.
●Keep all cartridges in the original sealed packages until they are needed.
●Be sure to turn o the printer properly. For more information, see Turn the printer o.
●Store cartridges at room temperature (15-35° C or 59-95° F).
●Do not clean the printhead unnecessarily. This wastes ink and shortens the life of the cartridges.
●Handle cartridges carefully. Dropping, jarring, or rough handling during installation can cause temporary
printing problems.
●If you are transporting the printer, do the following to prevent ink leaking from the printer or other
damage from occurring to the printer:
–Make sure you turn o the printer by pressing (the Power button). Wait until all sounds of
internal motion stop before unplugging the printer.
–Make sure you leave the cartridges installed.
–The printer must be transported sitting at; it should not be placed on its side, back, front, or top.
CAUTION: HP recommends that you replace any missing cartridges as soon as possible to avoid print quality
issues and possible extra ink usage or damage to the ink system. Never turn o the printer when cartridges
are missing.
NOTE: This printer is not designed to use continuous ink systems. To resume printing, remove continuous
ink system and install original HP (or compatible) cartridges.
NOTE: This printer is designed for ink cartridges to be used until they are empty. Relling cartridges prior to
depletion might cause your printer to fail. If this happens, insert a new cartridge (either genuine HP or
compatible) to continue printing.
ENWWInformation on cartridges and the printhead59
Some color ink is used even when printing with black cartridge
only
Ink is used in a number of ways throughout the inkjet printing process. In general, ink in a cartridge is used for
printing documents, photographs and other such materials. Some ink, however, must be used to maintain the
health of the printhead; some ink is residual; and some ink evaporates. For more information on ink usage,
visit www.hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies and click HP Ink. (You might need to select your country/region
using the Select Country button on the page.)
60Chapter 5 Work with cartridgesENWW
Check the estimated ink levels
You can check the estimated ink levels from the printer software or from the printer control panel.
To check the estimated ink levels from the printer control panel
●From the printer control panel, touch (Ink) to check the estimated ink levels.
NOTE: Ink level alerts and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low-
ink alert, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not have
to replace the cartridges until prompted to do so.
NOTE: If you have installed a relled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in
another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.
NOTE: Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of dierent ways, including in the
initialization process, which prepares the printer and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which
keeps print nozzles clear and ink owing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after
it is used. For more information, see www.hp.com/go/inkusage .
ENWWCheck the estimated ink levels61

Anonymous usage information storage
The HP cartridges used with this printer contain a memory chip that assists in the operation of the printer. In
addition, this memory chip stores a limited set of anonymous information about the usage of the printer,
which might include: the number of pages printed using the cartridge, the page coverage, frequency of
printing, and the printing modes used.
This information helps HP design future printers to meet our customers' printing needs. The data collected
from the cartridge memory chip does not contain information that can be used to identify a customer or user
of the cartridge or their printer.
HP collects a sampling of the memory chips from cartridges returned to HP's free return and recycling
program (HP Planet Partners: www.hp.com/recycle ). The memory chips from this sampling are read and
studied in order to improve future HP printers. HP partners who assist in recycling this cartridge might have
access to this data, as well.
Any third party possessing the cartridge might have access to the anonymous information on the memory
chip. If you prefer to not allow access to this information, you can render the chip inoperable. However, after
you render the memory chip inoperable, the cartridge cannot be used in an HP printer.
If you are concerned about providing this anonymous information, you can make this information inaccessible
by turning o the memory chip's ability to collect the printer's usage information.
To disable the usage information function
1.From the printer control panel, touch ( Setup ).
2.Touch Preferences .
3.Touch On next to Store Anonymous Usage Information to turn it o.
NOTE: To turn the usage information function on, restore the factory defaults. For more information about
how to restore the defaults, see Restore original factory defaults and settings.
NOTE: You can continue to use the cartridge in the HP printer if you turn o the memory chip's ability to
collect the printer's usage information.
