Chapter 3 Ink tips • Use genuine HP ink cartridges. • Don't open or uncap cartridges until you are ready to install them. Leaving caps on the cartridges reduces ink evaporation. • Install the yellow, magenta, cyan, and black 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 to clean. ◦ From the home screen, which displays Copy, Scan, and Quick Forms, select Settings. NOTE: If you do not see the home screen, press the Back button until you can see it. ◦ From the Settings menu, select Tools. ◦ Scroll through the Tools menu until you see Clean Ink Smear, then press 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 down. • 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. • Double-click the HP Deskjet 3520 series desktop icon to open the Printer Software. In the Printer Software, click Print and Scan and then click Set Preferences to access the print driver. NOTE: You can also access the Printer Software by clicking Start > All Programs > HP > HP Deskjet 3520 series > HP Deskjet 3520 series • You can print your document on both sides of the paper, instead of just one side. ◦ On the Layout tab, select Flip on Long Edge or Flip on Short Edge from the Print on Both Sides dropdown menu. ◦ Click OK to print. After one page of the document has been printed, you will be prompted to wait for a few seconds. Then the printer will automatically load the paper back to print on the other side.
