HP Photosmart A310 Compact Photo Printer - Manual (Page 43)

Caution Make sure the printer completes its
power-down cycle before you unplug the power
cord or remove the internal battery. This allows
the printer to store the print cartridge properly.
Follow these tips to help maintain HP print cartridges and
ensure consistent print quality:
● Keep all unused print cartridges in their original
sealed packages until they are needed. Store print
cartridges at room temperature (15–35° C or 59–95°
F).
● Do not remove the plastic tape covering the ink
nozzles until you are ready to install the print
cartridge in the printer. If the plastic tape has been
removed from the print cartridge, do not attempt to
reattach it. Reattaching the tape damages the print
cartridge.
