HP Officejet J5740 All-in-One Printer - Manual (Page 139)

To change the copy quality
1. Make sure you have paper loaded in the input tray.
2. Load your original print side down on the right front corner of the glass or print
side up in the document feeder tray.
If you use the document feeder tray, place the pages so that the top edge of the
document goes in first.
3. In the Copy area, press Quality until the appropriate quality setting is lit.
4. Press Start Copy Black or Start Copy Color.
Cause: The print cartridges need to be cleaned or might be out of ink.
Solution: Check the estimated ink levels remaining in the print cartridges. If the
print cartridges are low or out of ink, you might need to replace the print cartridges.
If there is ink remaining in the print cartridges, but you are still noticing a problem,
print a self-test report to determine if there is a problem with the print cartridges. If the
self-test report shows a problem, clean the print cartridges. If the problem persists,
you might need to replace the print cartridges.

Cause: There might be fiber or dust built up around the ink nozzle area on the print
cartridges.
Solution: Check the print cartridges. If it looks as though there are fibers or dust
around the ink nozzles, clean the ink nozzle area of the print cartridge.
To clean the area around the ink nozzles
1. Turn on the HP All-in-One and open the print cartridge door.
The print carriage moves to the far right side of the HP All-in-One.
2. Wait until the print carriage is idle and silent, and then unplug the power cord from
the back of the HP All-in-One.
NOTE: Depending how long the HP All-in-One is unplugged, the date and
time might be erased. You might need to reset the date and time later, when
you plug the power cord back in.
3. Lightly press down on the print cartridge to release it, and then pull it toward you
out of the slot.
NOTE: Do not remove both print cartridges at the same time. Remove and
clean each print cartridge one at a time. Do not leave a print cartridge outside
the HP All-in-One for more than 30 minutes.
4. Place the print cartridge on a piece of paper with the ink nozzles facing up.
5. Lightly moisten a clean foam rubber swab with distilled water.
