Tips for print success
To print successfully, the HP cartridges should be functioning properly with sufficient ink, the paper
should be loaded correctly, and the printer should have the appropriate settings. Print settings do not
apply to copying or scanning.
Ink tips
●
Use Original HP ink cartridges.
●
Install both the black and tri-color cartridges correctly.

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 up.
●
Ensure that paper loaded in the input tray lays flat, and the edges are not bent or torn.
●
Adjust the paper-width guide in the input tray to fit snugly against all paper. Make sure the
paper-width guide does not bend the paper in the input tray.
