Chapter 3 Ink tips • Use genuine HP ink cartridges. • Install both the black and tri-color cartridges correctly. For more information, see Replace the cartridges. • Check the estimated ink levels in the cartridges to make sure there is sufficient ink. For more information, see Check the estimated ink levels. • For more information, see Improve print quality. • If you are seeing ink smears on the back of the pages that you printed, use the Tools menu on the printer display to clean. ◦ From the home screen, which displays Copy, Scan, and Quick Forms, press the Setup button. NOTE: If you do not see the home screen, press the Back button until you can see it. ◦ Scroll through the Tools menu until you see Clean Ink Smear, then select OK. ◦ Follow the onscreen instructions. Paper loading tips • Load a stack of paper (not just one page). All of the paper in the stack should be the same size and type to avoid a paper jam. • Load paper with side to be printed on facing up. • Ensure that paper loaded in the paper tray lays flat and the edges are not bent or torn. • Adjust the paper-width guides in the paper tray to fit snugly against all paper. Make sure the paper-width guide does not bend the paper in the paper tray. • For more information, see Load media. Printer settings tips • On the Paper/Quality tab of the print driver, select the appropriate paper type and print quality from the Media drop-down list. • Select the appropriate size from the Paper Size drop-down list on the Paper/Quality tab. • Click the HP All-in-One desktop icon to open the Printer Software. In the Printer Software, click Printer Actions and then click Set Preferences to access the print driver. NOTE: You can also access the Printer Software by clicking Start > Programs > HP > HP Deskjet 3050A J611 series > HP Deskjet 3050A J611 series Notes • Genuine HP ink cartridges are designed and tested with HP printers and papers 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 • Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. NOTE: 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. • Software settings selected in the print driver only apply to printing, they do not apply to copying or scanning. 12 Print
