HP Deskjet Ink Advantage D730 Printer - Manual (Page 57)

NOTE: Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different
ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the device and cartridges
for printing, and in printhead servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing
smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used. For more
information, see
www.hp.com/go/inkusage .
To check the ink levels
1. Open the printer
Toolbox .
2. Click the Estimated Ink Levels tab.
The Estimated Ink Levels tab also contains print cartridge ordering information. To
view this information, click the Print Cartridge Information button.
NOTE: If the print cartridges were used before being installed in the printer, or have
been refilled, the estimated ink levels on the Estimated Ink level tab may be
inaccurate or unavailable.
Maintain the printer body
Because the HP Deskjet ejects ink onto the paper in a fine mist, ink smudges will
eventually appear.
CAUTION: Do not use any type of cleaning solution. Household cleaners and
detergents might damage the printer finish. Keep all fluids away from the interior. Do
not lubricate the metal rod on which the print cartridge carriage slides. Noise is normal
when the carriage moves back and forth.
To remove smudges, stains, or dried ink from the exterior
1. Turn off the product, and then disconnect the power cord.
2. Wipe the outside of the product with a soft cloth that has been lightly moistened with
water.
