The printer oers innovative, web-enabled solutions that can help you quickly access the Internet, obtain documents, and print them faster and with less hassle—and all without using a computer.
NOTE: To use these web features, the printer must be connected to the Internet. You cannot use these web
features if the printer is connected using a USB cable.
HP ePrint
HP ePrint is a free service from HP that allows you to print to your HP ePrint-enabled printer anytime, from
any location. It's as simple as sending an email to the email address assigned to your printer when you enable Web Services on the printer. No special drivers or software are needed. If you can send an email, you can print from anywhere, using HP ePrint.
NOTE: You can sign up for an account on HP Connected (might not be available in all countries/regions),
and sign in to congure the ePrint settings.
Once you have signed up for an account on HP Connected (might not be available in all countries/regions), you can sign in to view your HP ePrint job status, manage your HP ePrint printer queue, control who can use your printer's HP ePrint email address to print, and get help for HP ePrint.

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.

Check the estimated ink levels
ENWW Information on cartridges and the printhead 57

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 or swipe down the tab at the top of the screen to open the
Dashboard, and then touch (Ink) to check the estimated ink levels.
To check the ink levels from the printer software (Windows)
1. Open the HP printer software.
2. In the printer software, click Estimated Levels at the top of the window.
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 relled 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 dierent 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 .

Learn how to avoid paper jams

To help avoid paper jams, follow these guidelines.
Remove printed papers from the output tray frequently.
Make sure that you are printing with paper that is not wrinkled, folded, or damaged.
Prevent curled or wrinkled paper by storing all unused paper at in a resealable bag.
Do not use paper that is too thick or too thin for the printer.
Make sure that the trays are loaded correctly and are not too full. For more information, see Load paper.
Ensure that paper loaded in the input tray lays at and the edges are not bent or torn.
Do not place too much paper in the document feeder tray. For information on the maximum number of
sheets allowed in the document feeder, see Specications.
Do not mix dierent paper types and paper sizes in the input tray; the entire stack of paper in the input tray
must be the same size and type.
Adjust the paper-width guides in the input tray to t snugly against all paper. Make sure the paper-width
guides do not bend the paper in the input tray.
Do not force paper too far inside the input tray.
If you are printing on both sides of a page, do not print highly saturated images on light weight paper.
Use paper types that are recommended for the printer.
If the printer is about to run out of paper, allow the printer to run out of paper rst, and then add paper. Do
not load paper when the printer is printing.

Solve paper-feed problems

What kind of problem are you having?
Paper is not picked up from a tray
Make sure paper is loaded in the tray. For more information, see Load paper. Fan the paper before
loading.
Make sure the paper-width guides are set to the correct markings in the tray for the paper size you
are loading. Also make sure the paper guides are snug, but not tight, against the stack.
Ensure that the stack of paper is aligned with the appropriate paper size lines on the bottom of the
input tray, and does not exceed the stack height indicated by one or more label on the side or paper­width guide of the input tray.
Make sure paper in the tray is not curled. Uncurl paper by bending it in the opposite direction of the
curl.
Pages are skewing
86 Chapter 9 Solve a problem ENWW
Make sure the paper loaded in the input tray is aligned to the paper-width guides. If needed, pull out the input tray from the printer and reload the paper correctly, making sure that the paper guides are aligned correctly.
Load paper into the printer only when it is not printing.
Multiple pages are being picked up
Make sure the paper-width guides are set to the correct markings in the tray for the paper size you
are loading. Also make sure the paper-width guides are snug, but not tight, against the stack.
Ensure that the stack of paper is aligned with the appropriate paper size lines on the bottom of the input tray, and does not exceed the stack height indicated by one or more label on the side or paper­width guide of the input tray.
Make sure the tray is not overloaded with paper.
Use HP paper for optimum performance and eciency.

Cartridge issues

If an error occurs after a cartridge is installed, or if a message indicates a cartridge problem, try removing the cartridges, verifying the protective piece of plastic tape has been removed from each cartridge, and then reinserting the cartridges. If this does not work, clean the cartridge contacts (see the following for details). If the problem is still not resolved, replace the cartridges. For information about replacing cartridges, see Replace the
cartridges .
To clean cartridge contacts
CAUTION: The cleaning procedure should take only a few minutes. Make sure that the cartridges are
