Handle the print cartridges

Before you replace or clean a print cartridge, you should know the part names and
how to handle the print cartridges.

1 Copper-colored contacts
2 Plastic tape with pink pull tab (must be removed before installing)
3 Ink nozzles under tape

Hold the print cartridges by their black plastic sides, with the label on top. Do not
touch the copper-colored contacts or the ink nozzles.

Warning

Be careful not to drop the print cartridges. This can damage them,

making them unusable.

Replace the print cartridges

When the ink level for the print cartridge is low, a message appears on the control
panel display.

Note

You can also check the estimated amount of ink remaining in your

cartridges by using the HP Image Zone software that came with your HP All-in-
One. For information, see

Check the estimated ink levels

.

When you receive a low-ink warning message on the control panel display, make sure
you have a replacement print cartridge available. You should also replace the print
cartridges when you see faded text or if you experience print quality issues related to
the print cartridges.

Tip

You can also use these instructions to replace the black print cartridge

with a photo print cartridge for printing high-quality color photos.
