8. Allow the print cartridge to dry for approximately ten minutes.
9. Slide the print cartridge back into the slot. Push the print cartridge forward until it
clicks into place.
10. Repeat if necessary for the other print cartridge.
11. Gently close the print-carriage access door and plug the power cord into the back
of the HP All-in-One.
Clean the area around the ink nozzles
If the HP All-in-One is used in a dusty environment, a small amount of debris might
accumulate inside the device. This debris can include dust, hair, carpet, or clothing
fibers. When debris gets on the print cartridges, it can cause ink streaks and smudges
on printed pages. Ink streaking can be corrected by cleaning around the ink nozzles
as described here.
Note Clean the area around the ink nozzles only if you continue to see
streaks and smudges on your printed pages after you have already cleaned
the print cartridges by using the control panel or the HP Image Zone software.
For more information, see
Clean the print cartridges .
Make sure you have the following materials available:
●
Dry foam rubber swabs, lint-free cloth, or any soft material that will not come
apart or leave fibers.
Tip Coffee filters are lint-free and work well for cleaning print cartridges.
● Distilled, filtered, or bottled water (tap water might contain contaminants that can
damage the print cartridges).
Warning Do not touch the copper-colored contacts or ink nozzles. Touching
these parts can result in clogs, ink failure, and bad electrical connections.
