Printer maintenance Check printer status You can check the current status of the printer in various ways: ● If you start the HP Utility and select your printer, you see a page of information describing the status of the printer and its paper and ink supplies. ● If you access the Embedded Web Server, you see information about the general status of the printer. The Supplies page in the Main tab describes the status of the paper and ink supplies. ● At the front panel, you can press for information about paper, ink levels, ink cartridges, and printheads. If there is a current problem, you are taken automatically to the area with the most urgent problem. If there are any current alerts, the upper row of the home screen shows the top-priority alert. Press the alert message to see a list of all current alerts. Clean the exterior of the printer Clean the outside of the printer and all other parts of the printer that you regularly touch as part of normal operation with a damp sponge or a soft cloth and a mild household cleaner such as nonabrasive liquid soap. WARNING! To avoid an electric shock, make sure that the printer is turned off and unplugged before you clean it. Do not let water get inside the printer. CAUTION: Do not use abrasive cleaners on the printer. Maintain the ink cartridges During the normal lifetime of a cartridge, no specific maintenance is required. However, in order to maintain the best print quality, replace a cartridge when it reaches its expiration date. The printer's front panel notifies you when any cartridge reaches its expiration date. You can also check a cartridge's expiration date at any time: see Check printer status on page 126. See also Handling ink cartridges and printheads on page 114. Move or store the printer If you need to move or store the printer, prepare it correctly to avoid possible damage to it. To prepare the printer, follow the instructions below. 1. Do not remove the ink cartridges or printheads. 2. Make sure that no paper is loaded. 3. Make sure that the printer is idle. 4. Disconnect any cables connecting the printer to a network or a computer. 126 Chapter 13 Maintaining the printer ENWW
