This brief tutorial teaches you how to use your HP OfficeJet to make a copy, adjust copy settings, and change settings. This is not a comprehensive tutorial; its purpose is to familiarize you with the front panel and the different buttons.

You can copy from originals loaded on the glass or in the automatic document feeder. You can also print and copy onto a variety of paper types, weights, sizes, and transparency films. It is important, however, that you choose the right paper and make sure that it is loaded correctly and not damaged.

Your HP OfficeJet provides two ways to load originals for copying and scanning. You can do the following:

• Load originals on the glass

• Load originals in the automatic document feeder

You can copy or scan any original by placing it on the glass.

Many of the Special Features options, such as Which Size? or Poster, will not work correctly if the glass and lid backing are not clean. For more information, see clean the glass and clean the lid

backing on page 35.

load originals

1 Lift the lid and place the original face down on the glass in the

bottom-right corner with the sides of the originals touching the right and bottom edges.

It is important to use the bottom-right corner when using the copy or scan feature.

Tip! If you are copying from a transparency (that is, your original is printed on transparency film), place a blank piece of paper on top of the transparency.

2 Close the lid.

load originals in the automatic document feeder

Your HP OfficeJet has an automatic document feeder (ADF), which you can use to load up to 30 originals of the following paper types:

• Plain Paper 16 to 36 lb. long grain only

• Specialty Paper – HP Premium Inkjet Paper

– HP Bright White Inkjet Paper

You can also use the ADF to load the following types of originals, but you must load them one sheet at a time:

• Other specialty papers, such as glossy paper

• Overhead transparencies, such as HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Media

• Photo paper, such as Kodak EktaColor Edge-5 (glossy)

• Real Estate paper (single sheet only)

1 Place all originals in the ADF print side up. 2 Adjust the paper-width guide to fit the size of your original.

A message appears on the display indicating that the originals are loaded.

Following is the basic procedure for loading paper. There are specific considerations for loading certain types of paper, transparency film, and envelopes. After you review this procedure, see tips for loading other types of paper in the main tray on page 18 and load envelopes on page 17.

For best results, adjust the paper settings each time you change paper types or paper sizes. For more information, see choose the paper tray and set the paper type on page 20.

If you have the HP 250-sheet plain paper tray, you can load paper into both the main paper tray and the 250-sheet plain paper tray. If you have the 250-sheet plain paper tray, you should use it for plain paper only. Please refer to the Accessories guide that comes with the paper tray for information about installing the tray, loading paper, and adjusting paperwidth and paper-length guides.

Caution! You must also have the two-sided printing accessory installed to use the 250-sheet plain paper tray.

2 Tap the stack on a flat surface to align the edges of the paper, and

then check the paper for the following: – Make sure it is free of rips, dust, wrinkles, and curled or bent

edges.

– Make sure all the paper in the stack is the same size and type,

unless you are working with photo paper.

3 Insert paper into the main tray print-side down until it stops. If you are

using letterhead, insert the top of the page first. Be careful not to use too much or too little paper. Check that the stack

of paper contains several sheets but is no higher than the top of the paper-length guide.

4 Slide the paper-width and paper-length guides in until they stop at the

edges of the paper. Make sure that the paper stack lies flat in the main tray and fits under the tab of the paper-length guide.

5 Lower the output tray. 6 To prevent printed paper from falling off the tray, fully extend the

output-tray extender.

Raise the output tray until it stays in the raised position.

Insert first edge of paper into the main tray.

• If you use non-HP banner paper, use 20-lb. paper and fan the paper before loading it.

• Verify that the stack of banner paper contains at least five pages in the stack.

• Carefully tear off the perforated edge strips from both sides of the paper stack, if any, and unfold and refold the paper to make sure the pages do not stick together.

• Put the paper in the main tray so that the unattached edge is at the top of the stack. Insert the first edge into the main tray until it stops, as shown in the illustration above.

tips for loading other types of paper in the main tray

hp officejet d series

choose the paper tray and set the paper type

If you want to use a different type of paper, such as photo paper, transparency film, banner paper, or envelopes, simply load that paper in the main tray. You should then change the paper type settings to ensure the best print quality.

If you have installed HP 250-sheet plain paper tray, that paper tray is the default paper tray that is used for copying. If you load a different type of paper in the main paper tray, you need to not only change the paper type settings, but also specify the paper tray to use.

Caution! You must also have the two-sided printing accessory installed to use the 250-sheet plain paper tray.

You can change copy settings from the front panel or from the HP Director. When you change settings using the front panel, the copy settings are reset two minutes after the unit completes the copy.

HP recommends paper type settings according to the type of paper you’re using. For more information, see recommended paper-type settings for copying in the onscreen User’s Guide.

1 Press Tray Select/Paper Type.

use the scan features

Scanning is the process of converting text and pictures into an electronic format for your computer. You can scan just about anything:

• Text documents

• Photos

• Magazine articles

• 3D objects (be careful not to scratch the glass) to put into catalogs and flyers

Because the scanned image or text is in an electronic format, you can bring it into your word processor or graphics program and modify it to suit your needs. You can do the following:

• Scan text from an article into your word processor and quote it in a report, saving you a lot of retyping.

• Scan in a logo and use it in your publishing software, allowing you to print business cards and brochures for yourself.

• Scan in photos and e-mail them to coworkers and friends, create a photographic inventory of your office or home, or create an electronic scrapbook.

To use the scan features, your HP OfficeJet and computer must be connected and turned on. The HP OfficeJet software should also be installed on your computer prior to connecting the computer to the HP OfficeJet.

If your HP OfficeJet is connected to a network, you can scan to any of the computers that are on the network from the front panel or computer. The other computers on the network must also have the HP OfficeJet software installed.

increase copy speed or quality

reduce or enlarge a copy

The HP OfficeJet provides three options that affect copy speed and quality.

• Best produces the highest quality for all paper and eliminates the banding (striping) effect that sometimes occurs in solid areas. Best copies more slowly than the other quality settings.

• Normal delivers high-quality output and is the recommended setting for most of your copying. Normal copies faster than Best.

• Fast copies faster than the Normal setting. The text is of comparable quality to the Normal setting, but the graphics may be of lower quality. Using Fast also cuts down on the frequency of replacing your ink cartridges, because it uses less ink.

1 Load your original on the glass or in the ADF. 2 Press Quality until the green light in front of the desired quality is lit. 3 Press Start Copy, Black or Start Copy, Color.

You can reduce or enlarge a copy of an original using either the Reduce/ Enlarge button or the Special Features buttons. This section explains the Reduce/Enlarge features only.

align the printheads

clean the printheads

The HP OfficeJet prompts you to align the printheads every time you install or replace a printhead or ink cartridge. Aligning the printheads ensures high-quality output.

To align the printheads after the message appears on the display, press Enter on the front panel.

To align the printheads at any other time do the following:

1 Press Menu. 2 Press 3, then press 3.

This selects the Status and Maintenance menu, then selects the Align PrintHeads option.

A page prints to confirm printhead alignment. You can either discard or recycle this page. If the page does not appear, see the Troubleshooting help, which you access from the HP Director.

Use this feature when the Self-Test Report shows streaking or white lines through any of the colored bars. Do not clean printheads unnecessarily. This wastes ink and shortens the life of your printheads.

1 Press Menu. 2 Press 3, then press 2.

This selects the Status and Maintenance menu, then selects the Clean PrintHeads option.

If copy or print quality still seem poor after you clean the printheads, replace the printhead that is affected.

clean the ink cartridge contacts

Clean the ink cartridge contacts only if you get repeated front panel messages prompting you to check a cartridge after you already have.

Caution! Do not remove both ink cartridges at the same time. Remove and clean them one at a time.

maintain your hp officejet

Make sure you have the following materials available:

• A clean, lint-free cloth

• Distilled, filtered, or bottled water (do not use tap water, as it may

contain contaminants that can damage the printheads) Caution! Be careful not to get ink on your hands or clothing.

1 Turn the unit on and open the print-carriage access door.

The print carriage moves to the center.

2 After the print carriage has moved to the center, unplug the power

cord from the back of the unit.

Warning! It is very important that you disconnect the printer from its electrical power source before touching the ink cartridge contacts. Electrical shock or severe damage to the printer can occur if you touch the contacts while there is electrical power to the printer. Do not use the On button to turn the printer off.

3 Press the gray button to release the ink cartridge, then pull it up and

out of its slot.

4 Inspect the ink cartridge contacts and the contacts inside the ink

cartridge socket for ink and debris buildup.

5 Clean any visible ink deposits with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth.

If necessary, moisten the cloth with one drop of water.

6 Place the ink cartridge back into the holder. 7 Repeat if necessary for the other ink cartridge. 8 Close the door and plug in the unit.

Because you removed an ink cartridge from its holder, the HP OfficeJet needs to align the printheads.

9 After the message appears in the front-panel display, press Enter to

align the printheads. A page is printed to confirm alignment.

replacement alternatives

To get the best performance from your HP OfficeJet, we recommend using only genuine Hewlett-Packard supplies. See the Support and Specifications booklet for information on ordering replacement ink cartridges and printheads.

Caution! Damage that results from modifying or refilling HP ink cartridges or the use of non-HP in k is specifically excluded from the warranty coverage for the printer and printer supplies.

work with printheads and ink cartridges

hp officejet d series

non-hp ink cartridges

The Ink Level Gauge may not work properly with a non-HP ink cartridge. If you choose to print with a non-HP ink cartridge, you may not know when the cartridge is running low or empty. Printing with an empty ink cartridge may seriously damage the printheads.

Any damage resulting from the use of a non-HP ink cartridge is not the responsibility of Hewlett-Packard.

refilled ink cartridges

To install a refilled HP ink cartridge, you must override the Ink Level Gauge.

override the ink level gauge

Overriding the Ink Level Gauge disables the printer’s ink level tracking feature, but allows you to use a refilled cartridge.

Caution! If you use the override sequence described below, you will disable the Ink Level Gauge for your ink cartridge. If you choose to continue printing with an ink cartridge that has had its Ink Level Gauge disabled, you will not know when the cartridge is running low or empty. Printing with an empty cartridge may seriously damage your printheads. Damage that results from continued use of an ink cartridge with a disabled Ink Level Gauge is not the responsibility of Hewlett-Packard. Damage that results from the use of non-HP ink is not the responsibility of Hewlett-Packard.

The Ink Level Gauge is automatically reset when a different ink cartridge is installed in the printer.

Overriding the Ink Level Gauge does not affect ink cartridge expiration dates. The printer cannot use an expired ink cartridge.

Follow these steps to override the Ink Level Gauge:

to override the ink level gauge for the black ink cartridge

1 Press and at the same time, then release. 2 On the keypad, press in order, 7, 8, 9. 3 When the prompt appears asking if you want to override the ink level

gauge, press 1 for Yes, or 2 for No.

to override the ink level gauge for the tri-color ink cartridge

1 Press and at the same time, then release. 2 On the keypad, press in order, 4, 5, 6. 3 When the prompt appears asking if you want to override the ink level

gauge, press 1 for Yes, or 2 for No.

Always install an ink cartridge before performing an Ink Level Gauge override.
