How Do I Perform a Color Calibration?
To ensure that color consistency is maintained, you will need to perform a color calibration at various times (for example, when you change the printheads). For more information on when you should perform a color calibration, refer to “Tell Me About Color Calibration” on page 42.
The calibration is performed for a given combination of printheads and paper type. After you have done the calibration, the calibration data is stored in the printer and is used the next time you print with the same type of paper loaded.
Note that the color calibration is restricted to HP manufactured paper of certain types. Refer to the Using Your Printer CD for more details.
Note that different color calibrations apply for the default printer driver (RGB) and for the optional HP RIP (CMYK). This section describes how to perform a color calibration when using the default printer driver supplied with the printer. If you are using a RIP, to perform a color calibration refer to the documentation for your RIP.
For more general information about color calibration, refer to “Tell Me About Color Calibration” on page 42.
1. Make sure that you have a blank sheet of A4 or Letter paper, or a roll of paper of the relevant type at hand.
2. Double-click the HP Designjet Color Calibration icon on the desktop.
English
3. Choose the appropriate on-screen options.
The color calibration print will be produced. Once the calibration has finished, you do not need to keep the printout.

How Do I Load Sheets of Paper? (General Guidance)
There are three ways of loading sheets of paper into the printer (note that the diagram below shows the printer with the Automatic Roll Feed installed):
rear path (sheet)
rear path (roll)
extensions to support paper
tray
output tray
front path
•The tray at the front of the printer for normal sheets of paper between 76 x 142 mm (3 x 5.6 inches) and 457 x 610 mm (18 x 24 inches) (C+ or A2+); envelopes can also be loaded in the input tray.
•The front path for paper between 110 x 205 mm (4.3 x 8.1 inches) and 625x1625mm (24.6x63.9inches) (D+ or A1+);
•The rear path, for single thick sheets of paper or other media between 110 x 205 mm (4.3 x 8.1 inches) and 625 x 1625 mm (24.6 x 63.9 inches) (D+ or A1+). For printers with the Automatic Roll Feed installed, the upper slot is used for single-sheet input and the lower slot is used for roll input.
The extensions may be used to support large sheets of paper going into the front input path, and also act as supports for paper arriving in the output tray.
Important:If you wish to print to a sheet and there is a roll of paper loaded in the printer, the roll must be unloaded to allow printing to the sheet. This happens automatically when you send your print job to the printer. However, if you wish to print to a single sheet loaded via the front path, we recommend that you unload the roll manually before submitting your print job; see “How Do I Unload a Roll of Paper?” on page 10. The roll is automatically reloaded the next time printing to the roll is requested.

How Do I Load Paper Using the Front Path?
4. Place a piece of paper on the output tray, aligning it on the right of the output tray, with the side that is to be printed facing down. Do NOT stack paper.
5. Push the paper into the printer, pushing it firmly in as far as it will go, while maintaining its alignment to the right. Slide the tab on the left of the paper until it is holding the paper against the right side of the tray.
English
6. Press the OK key (the upper right key) on the front panel. The printer will check the alignment of the paper, and if it is misaligned, it will eject the paper; in that case you will have to reload the paper.
How Do I Unload Paper from the Front Path?
If you want to change or remove the paper that you have loaded before printing, for example to change the type of paper or to use a different input path:
• Press the Cancel and OK keys at the same time, to eject the paper.

How Do I Load Paper in the Input Tray?
1. Remove the tray from the printer.
2. Remove the dust cover from the tray. Adjust the size of the tray if necessary. If the paper you are using is larger than Legal- or A4-size, extend the tray. For Legal- and A4-size or smaller paper, use the tray in its normal size. To adjust the size of the tray, slide the tray extension locking tab to the left until it clicks. This unlocks the tray extension. To lengthen the tray, pull the tray extension out as far as it will go. To make the tray shorter, push the tray extension in as far as it will go. The tray extension locking tab will click back to its normal position, locking the tray size.
3. Place the paper in the tray, to the right and towards the printer.

How Do I Load a Roll of Paper?
This section is only relevant if your printer has the Automatic Roll Feed installed.
Only one source of paper can be used by the printer at any one time, so if a roll of paper is loaded in the printer and you want to print to a sheet of paper, you must first unload the roll. The roll is automatically reloaded the next time printing to the roll is requested.
You can cut a roll without unloading it by pressing the OK key (top right key on the front panel); the paper first advances about 1 cm or 0.4 inch.
1. Set your application to pick paper from the roll feed.
2. Select Print from your application.
3. Load a roll of the required paper onto the spindle. Ensure that the roll is the right way round and that the blue stop on the spindle is pushed in against the paper.
4. Insert the spindle into its retaining slots, with the blue stop on the right and the black stop on the left as seen from the rear of the printer.
If the paper is glossy, we recommend that you wear gloves to avoid smearing the surface of the paper.
5. Make sure that the leading edge of the roll is straight and perpendicular to its side edges and has no irregularities.

7. Rewind any excess paper so that the paper is rolled tightly onto the spindle.
8. Insert the leading edge of the paper into the lower slot in the rear of the printer. Push the paper in until it encounters resistance, keeping the sides of the paper rolled tightly so that the paper is not skewed.
9. After emitting a ‘beep’, the printer will take up the paper.
10.The printer will check the alignment of the paper.
If the paper is properly aligned, the roll icon will appear on the display, indicating that the printer is ready to print.
English
If the paper is misaligned, the printer will eject the paper and the display will show the misaligned and roll icons; you will have to reload the paper.
Repeat Step 7, so that the paper is tightly rolled onto the spindle.

HP Designjet 130/130nr Printer - Quick Reference Guide
How Do I Unload a Roll of Paper?
This section is only relevant if your printer has the Automatic Roll Feed installed.
Important: Do not pull on the roll of paper once it is taken up by the
printer, that is, if there is any resistance.
There are two ways of unloading a roll of paper:
If you want to unload the roll in order to feed a single sheet through the printer, press the Cancel and OK keys on the front panel at the same time (see below). If you later request printing to the roll, the Automatic Roll Feed will then automatically reload the roll.
If you want to unload the roll in order to completely remove it (for example, you no longer wish to use this roll of paper):
1. Push the Eject button on the left roll feed support at the rear of the printer. Avoid pressing the Eject button several times, as this can damage the paper.
2. Pull the roll towards you and remove the paper completely from the rear paper path of the printer. The icons shown below will flash until the paper is completely out, because if the paper is only partially removed, paper jams may subsequently occur. Sometimes the paper may fall away from the rear path by itself.
You do not need to remove the spindle from its supports in the printer.

How Do I Print on Large Sheets?
The printer output system has several adjustable components. When printing on large sheets of paper, it is important that you use the correct printer output configuration. The following diagram shows the adjustable parts of the printer output system:
English
The table on the next page gives the output system configuration required for various paper sizes.
Note the following:
• When using the main tray or roll feedback as source, make the necessary adjustments to the output system to enable output to be stacked.
• If the output tray already has prints stacked in it and you want to print from the roll feed, empty the output tray and adjust it as necessary before printing.

How do I Clean a Printhead?
If a printhead fails or needs attention, the corresponding icon on the front panel will flash.
Make sure the printhead is correctly seated. If this is not the problem, the most likely cause of failure is that the printhead contacts need to be cleaned. You will need the following cleaning materials:
• Clean, soft, lint-free material that will not come apart or leave fibres when damp (a coffee filter, for example)
• Distilled or filtered water
•Paper towels
Make sure the printer is powered on, then do the following:
1. Open the front hinged flap at the right of the printer.
2. Open the second (back) part of the flap and lift it back fully. The print carriage will move to the left and then back to the right. Wait for it to stop. When the carriage has stopped moving, unplug the power cable from the printer.
3. Pull the printhead cover up and towards you, so that the hook at the front unlatches itself, and then push the whole cover back so that the printheads are exposed.
4. Remove the failed printhead by lifting the small handle at the top front and using it to pull the printhead vertically up and out of the printer.

The Problem is the Input Tray Will Not Fit Properly
If you have problems inserting the input tray securely, try inserting and removing the tray two or three times. Normally this should resolve the problem.
However, if it doesn't, check that the latches are correctly positioned.
Inside the slot where the tray goes there are three spring-loaded latches. If they are not in the correct position, the tray won't fit properly.
Make sure that both latches are forward. If necessary, pull them towards you. When you insert the tray, you should hear a click as the latches are pushed
back; when you remove the tray, the latches click as they move forward.
