Insert or replace the print cartridge

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 device 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
Use the HP 110 Tri-color Inkjet print cartridge to print black-and-white and color photos. HP Vivera Inks deliver true-to-life photo quality and exceptional fade resistance, resulting
in vivid colors that last. HP Vivera Inks are specially formulated and scientifically tested for quality, purity, and fade resistance.
CAUTION: Check that you are using the correct print cartridges. Also, note that HP
does not recommend modifying or refilling HP cartridges. Damage that results from modifying or refilling HP cartridges is not covered by the HP warranty.
For best print quality, HP recommends that you install all retail print cartridges before the date stamped on the box.
To insert or replace a print cartridge
1. Make sure the power is on and you have removed the cardboard from inside the
printer.
2. Open the print cartridge door of the printer.
