Inserting ink cartridges
The first time you set up and use your HP Photosmart printer, make sure to install the
ink cartridges that were shipped with your printer. The ink in these ink cartridges is
specially formulated to mix with the ink in the print head assembly.
Purchasing replacement ink cartridges
When purchasing replacement cartridges, refer to the cartridge numbers that appear
on the back cover of this guide. These cartridge numbers may vary by country/region.
Note If you have already used the printer several times and you have
installed the HP Photosmart printer software, you can also find the cartridge
numbers in the printer software. Windows users: Right-click the HP Digital
Imaging Monitor icon in the Windows taskbar, and select Launch/Show
HP Solution Center. Select Settings, then Print Settings, and then Printer
Toolbox. Click the Estimated Ink Levels tab, and then click Ink Cartridge
Information. To order ink cartridges, click Shop Online. Macintosh users:
Click HP Image Zone in the Dock. Choose Maintain Printer from the Settings
pop-up menu. Click Launch Utility, and then choose Supplies Status from
the pop-up menu.
