STEP 4: Installing a Print Cartridge

Note: Use the black print cartridge (HP part no.

print cartridge (HP part no. 51625A) which you
can purchase separately. You can use only one
of these print cartridges at one time.

1. Press the Power button ( ) to turn the printer on.

2. Open the printer door.

CAUTION: The star wheels on the printer door
have sharp edges. Make sure your hand does not
come in contact with the star wheels.

3. Remove the print cartridge from its box.

4. Gently remove the

tape(s) covering the
ink nozzles. Be
careful not to touch
the ink nozzles or the
copper contacts.

5. Insert the print cartridge into the holder at an

angle such that the green top is tilted toward you.

The arrow on the print cartridge should be
pointing toward the inside of the printer.

6. Push the green top in until the print cartridge

snaps into place.

7. Close the printer door.

8. Press the Change Cartridge button ( ).

Note: If you did not install a recommended print

cartridge, the print cartridge holder will move

carefully formulated by Hewlett-Packard to
ensure superior print quality and compatibility
with your printer. Damage to the printer or the
print cartridge resulting from modifying or refilling
the print cartridge is not the responsibility of
Hewlett-Packard.
