Refilled and non-HP ink cartridges
HP recommends that you replace an empty cartridge with a new HP cartridge.
The use of refilled or non-HP ink cartridges has several disadvantages.
●
If printer failure or damage is attributable to the use of a non-HP or refilled ink cartridge, HP will
charge its standard time and materials charges to service the printer for the particular failure or
damage.
●
If failure or damage to printheads, ink cartridges, or other ink supplies is attributable to the use of
non-HP, expired or refilled ink cartridge, HP is not responsible for the cost of replacement.
●
Print quality may be impaired.
●
The printer will be unable to estimate the ink level in the cartridge, and will report it as empty.
If you decide to use refilled or non-HP ink cartridges, you will need to follow these instructions to make
the printer use a cartridge that it believes to be empty.
CAUTION:
Running completely out of ink can damage the printheads. Damage attributable to
printing with empty ink cartridges is not covered under warranty. Forcing the printer to accept empty
cartridges will empty the ink delivery system as well. Once emptied, ink must be used to refill the system
and reprime the printhead when a new ink cartridge is installed.
