Printer maintenance 6 Maintaining the printer 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 non-abrasive 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 Using your printer. Update the firmware The printer's various functions are controlled by software that resides in the printer, otherwise known as firmware. From time to time firmware updates will be available from Hewlett-Packard. These updates increase the printer's functionality and enhance its features. Firmware updates can be downloaded from the Internet and installed in your printer in the following ways; you can choose whichever you find most convenient. ● Using the HP Printer Utility for Windows, select your printer, the Support tab and then Firmware Update. ● Using the HP Printer Utility for Mac OS, select Firmware Update in the Support group. ● Using your printer's Embedded Web Server, select the Setup tab and then Firmware update.
