For more detailed information about environmental guidelines, HP follows during the manufacturing process, see Environmental product stewardship program. For more information about HP's environmental initiatives, visit www.hp.com/ecosolutions. This section contains the following topics: • • Manage Power Conserve Printing Supplies Manage Power To conserve electricity, the printer comes with the following features: • • Sleep mode Power usage is reduced while in Sleep mode.
Chapter 1 Conserve Printing Supplies To conserve printing supplies such as ink and paper, try the following: • • Change the print mode to a draft setting. Draft setting uses less ink. Do not clean the printhead unnecessarily. This wastes ink and shortens the life of the cartridges. Reduce paper usage by printing on both sides of the paper. You can first print just the odd pages, flip the pages over, and then print just the even pages.

4 Work with ink cartridges To ensure the best print quality from the printer, you need to perform some simple maintenance procedures. This section provides guidelines for handling the ink cartridges, instructions for replacing the ink cartridges, and aligning and cleaning the printhead. TIP: If you have problems printing documents, see Print quality troubleshooting.
Chapter 4 • • Handle ink cartridges carefully. Dropping, jarring, or rough handling during installation can cause temporary printing problems. If you are transporting the printer, do the following to prevent ink leaking from the printer or other damage from occurring to the printer: ◦ Make sure you turn off the printer by pressing (Power) button. Wait until ◦ ◦ all sounds of internal motion stop before unplugging the printer. For more information, see Turn the printer off.
NOTE: Not all cartridges are available in all countries/regions. CAUTION: While ink cartridges are not damaged when left outside of the printer, the printhead does need to have all cartridges installed at all times after the printer is set up and in use. Leaving one or more cartridge slots empty for an extended period may lead to print quality problems and possibly damage the printhead.
Chapter 4 6. 7. Repeat steps 3 through 5 for each ink cartridge you are replacing. Close the ink cartridge access door. Related topics HP supplies and accessories Store printing supplies Ink cartridges can be left in the printer for extended periods of time. However, to assure optimal ink cartridge health, be sure to turn off the printer properly. For more information, see Turn the printer off.
5 Solve a problem The information in General troubleshooting tips and resources suggests solutions to common problems. If your printer is not operating correctly and those suggestions did not solve your problem, try using one of the following support services to obtain assistance.

Chapter 5 • • • • • • The printer is not responding (nothing prints) The printer prints slowly The printer is making some unexpected noises Blank or partial page printed Something on the page is missing or incorrect Placement of the text or graphics is wrong The printer shuts down unexpectedly Check the power and power connections Make sure the printer is connected firmly to a functioning alternating current (AC) power outlet. For voltage requirements, see Electrical specifications.
Check the cable connections • Make sure both ends of the USB cable or Ethernet cable are secure. • If the printer is connected to a network, check the following: ◦ Check the Link light on the back of the printer. ◦ Make sure you are not using a phone cord to connect the printer. Check any personal firewall software installed on the computer The personal software firewall is a security program that protects a computer from intrusion.
Chapter 5 Cause: The ink cartridges might have insufficient ink. Insufficient ink may cause the printhead to overheat. When the printhead overheats, the printer slows down to allow it to cool. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution. Solution 3: Contact HP support Solution: Contact HP support for service. Go to: www.hp.com/go/customercare. This website provides information and utilities that can help you correct many common printer problems.
More than one page is being picked For more information, see Solve paper-feed problems. There is a blank page in the file Check the file to make sure there is no blank page. Something on the page is missing or incorrect Check the Print Quality Diagnostic page Print a Print Quality Diagnostic page to help you decide whether to run any maintenance tools to improve the print quality of your printouts.
Chapter 5 Check the page-orientation setting Make sure the media size and page orientation selected in the application match the settings in the printer driver. For more information, see Print. Check the printer location and length of USB cable High electromagnetic fields (such as those generated by USB cables) can sometimes cause slight distortions to printouts. Move the printer away from the source of the electromagnetic fields.
Solution 2: Check the ink levels Solution: Check the estimated ink levels in the ink cartridges. NOTE: Ink level alerts and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low-ink alert, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the ink cartridges until prompted to do so.
Chapter 5 Store specialty media in its original packaging inside a resealable plastic bag on a flat surface in a cool, dry place. When you are ready to print, remove only the paper you plan to use immediately. When you have finished printing, return any unused photo paper to the plastic bag. This prevents the photo paper from curling. NOTE: For this issue, there is not a problem with your ink supplies. Therefore, replacing the ink cartridges is not necessary.
Solution 6: Print and evaluate a print quality report Solution: To print a print quality report • Control panel: Press and hold the button seven times, press the • • (Power) button, press the (Cancel) (Resume) button two times, and then (Power) button. release the Embedded web server: Click the Tools tab, click Print Quality Toolbox under Utilities, and then click the Print Quality Report button.

Clean the printhead If your printed output is streaked or has any incorrect or missing colors, the printhead might need to be cleaned. There are two stages of cleaning. Each stage lasts about two minutes, uses one sheet of paper, and uses an increasing amount of ink. After each stage, review the quality of the printed page. You should only initiate the next phase of cleaning if the print quality is poor. If print quality still seems poor after you complete both stages of cleaning, try aligning the printer.

For information about replacing ink cartridges, see Replace the ink cartridges.
Appendix F Paper Mismatch The paper size or type selected in the printer driver does not match the paper loaded in the printer. Make sure that the correct paper is loaded in the printer, and then print the document again. For more information, see Load media. NOTE: If the paper loaded in the printer is the correct size, change the selected paper size in the printer driver, and then print the document again.
Door or cover open Before the printer can print documents, all doors and covers must be closed. TIP: When completely closed, most doors and covers snap into place. If the problem persists after you’ve securely closed all doors and covers, contact HP support. For more information, see HP support. Previously used ink cartridge installed The ink cartridge identified in the message was previously used in a different printer.
Appendix F Non-HP ink cartridges installed HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP supplies.
