Check the estimated ink levels

You can easily check the ink supply level to determine how soon you might need to replace a cartridge. The ink supply level shows an estimate of the amount of ink remaining in the cartridges.
NOTE: If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that
has been used in another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.
NOTE: Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes
only. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not have to replace the cartridges until the print quality is unacceptable.
NOTE: Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different
ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the product and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used. For more information, see
www.hp.com/go/inkusage.

Work with cartridges

To check the ink levels from the HP Photosmart Software
1. In the HP Solution Center, click Settings, point to Print Settings, and then click

on screen. If the message is displayed and two print cartridges are installed in the product, verify that the protective piece of plastic tape has been removed from each print cartridge. When plastic tape covers the print cartridge contacts, the product cannot detect that the print cartridge is installed.

• Step 3: Clean the print cartridge contacts
Step 1: Make sure you are using genuine HP ink cartridges
Solution: Check to see if your ink cartridges are genuine HP ink cartridges.
HP recommends that you use genuine HP ink cartridges. Genuine HP ink cartridges are designed and tested with HP printers to help you easily produce great results, time after time.
NOTE: HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP supplies. Product
service or repairs required as a result of using a non-HP supply will not be covered under warranty.
If you believe you purchased genuine HP ink cartridges, go to:
www.hp.com/go/anticounterfeit
Cause: Non-HP ink cartridges were being used.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
Step 2: Check the ink levels
Solution: Check the estimated ink levels in the cartridges.
NOTE: Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning
purposes only. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable.
For more information, see:

Make sure you have the following materials available:
Dry foam rubber swabs, lint-free cloth, or any soft material that will not come apart
or leave fibers.
TIP: Coffee filters are lint-free and work well for cleaning print cartridges.
Distilled, filtered, or bottled water (tap water might contain contaminants that can
damage the print cartridges).
CAUTION: Do not use platen cleaners or alcohol to clean the print cartridge
contacts. These can damage the print cartridge or the product.
To clean the print cartridge contacts
1. Turn on the product and open the print cartridge door.
The print carriage moves to the center of the product.
2. Wait until the print carriage is idle and silent, and then unplug the power cord from
the back of the product.
3. Lightly press down on the print cartridge to release it, and then pull it towards you
out of the slot.
NOTE: Do not remove both print cartridges at the same time. Remove and
clean each print cartridge one at a time. Do not leave a print cartridge outside the HP Printer for more than 30 minutes.
4. Inspect the print cartridge contacts for ink and debris buildup.
5. Dip a clean foam rubber swab or lint-free cloth into distilled water, and squeeze
any excess water from it.

Automatically clean print cartridges
Step 1: Check the print settings
Solution: Check the print settings.
Check the print settings to see if the color settings are incorrect.
For example, check to see if the document is set to print in grayscale. Or, check to see if advanced color settings such as saturation, brightness, or color tone, are set to modify the appearance of colors.
Check the print quality setting and make sure it matches the type of paper loaded
in the product. You might need to choose a lower print quality setting, if colors are running into
each other. Or, choose a higher setting if you are printing a high-quality photo, and then make sure photo paper such as HP Advanced Photo Paper, is loaded in the paper tray.
NOTE: On some computer screens, colors might appear differently than they do
when printed on paper. In this case, there is nothing wrong with the product, print settings, or ink cartridges. No further troubleshooting is required.
Cause: The print settings were set incorrectly.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
Step 2: Verify the paper size setting
Solution: Verify that you have selected the proper paper size setting for your
project. Make sure that you have loaded the correct paper size in the paper tray.
Cause: The paper size setting might not have been set correctly for the project you were printing.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
Step 3: Check the printer margins
Solution: Check the printer margins.
Make sure the margin settings for the document do not exceed the printable area of the product.
To check your margin settings
1. Preview your print job before sending it to the product.
In most software applications, click the File menu, and then click Print Preview.
2. Check the margins.
The product uses the margins you have set in your software application, as long as they are greater than the minimum margins the product supports. For more information about setting margins in your software application, see the documentation that came with the software.
3. Cancel the print job if the margins are not satisfactory, and then adjust the margins
in your software application.
Cause: The margins were not set correctly in your software application.
