ENWW Print cartridge conditions 95
Replace the print cartridge
When the print cartridge is empty, a REPLACE CARTRIDGE message appears on the printer control
panel. The printer continues printing (without customer interaction) until it reaches a drum-out
condition, but HP does not guarantee print quality after this message appears. However, if the
REPLACE CARTRIDGE message results from the drum life being exceeded, the user has to replace
the cartridge immediately, and no override is possible. This is done to protect the printer and the
print cartridge.
Recycling
For information about recycling the print cartridge, see Protecting the environment or go to
www.hp.com/recycle .
Using the printer cleaning page
Note To ensure good print quality with certain types of paper, use the cleaning page every time the
print cartridge is replaced. If the cleaning page is frequently needed, try a different type of paper.
If toner specks appear on the front or back side of your print jobs, use the following procedure.
From the printer control panel:
1 Use or to select Configure Device and then press .
2 Use or to select Print Quality and then press .
3 Use or to select Create Cleaning Page and then press .
4 Follow the instructions on the cleaning page.
5 When toner has been cleaned from inside the printer, shiny black spots will appear on the
page black strip. If white spots appear on the black strip, print another cleaning page.
Note In order for the cleaning page to work correctly, print the cleaning page on copier-grade paper
(not bond or rough paper).
Rocking the print cartridge
When you install a print cartridge for the first time, gently rock the cartridge from front to back to
distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge. Because of the new cartridge design, this is the
only time that you need to rock the cartridge.
Configuring alerts
You can use HP Web Jetadmin or the embedded Web server in the printer to configure the
system to alert you to problems with the printer. The alerts take the form of e-mail messages that
are sent to the e-mail account or accounts that you specify.
You can configure the following items:
● the printer(s) that you want to monitor.
● which alerts are to be received (for example, alerts for paper jams, paper out, order
cartridge, replace cartridge, and cover open)
● the e-mail account to which the alerts should be forwarded
