● If you remove a cartridge from the printer for any reason, try to replace it as soon as possible. If a cartridge is left unprotected outside the printer, its nozzles might dry out and clog up. ● Check the estimated ink levels in the cartridges to make sure there is sufficient ink. See Check the estimated ink levels. ● To protect the cartridges from drying out, turn off the printer using the Power button. ● If the print quality is not acceptable, see Fix print quality issues. ● Do not clean the printhead unnecessarily. This wastes ink and shortens the life of the cartridges. ● If you are moving the printer, follow these guidelines to prevent printer damage or ink leaks. - Keep the cartridges installed. - Turn off the printer by pressing the Power button. Wait until all sounds of internal motion stop before unplugging the printer. - While moving the printer, keep the printer flat; do not place the printer on its side, back, front, or top. Check the estimated ink levels Learn how to check estimated ink levels. ● If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in another printer, the ink level indicators might not be accurate or available. ● 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. ● Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the printer 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, and some ink evaporates. See hp.com/go/inkusage. You can check the estimated ink levels from the printer control panel or HP software. ● Printer control panel: Check the Ink Level icons on the printer display. ● Open HP Smart, and then check the estimated ink levels on the right of the printer image. ● From the Windows Start menu, open the HP printer software, and then click the Estimated Levels tab. Order ink supplies Find the cartridge number from the printer control panel or HP software. ● Open the front door and cartridge access door. Check the cartridge installation label. 28 Chapter 7 Manage cartridges
