Dynamic security enabled printers
This printer is intended to work only with cartridges that have new or reused HP electronic circuitry. Reused
HP electronic circuitry enables the use of reused, remanufactured, and refilled cartridges.
The printer uses dynamic security measures to block cartridges using modified or non-HP circuitry. Periodic
firmware updates delivered over the internet will maintain the effectiveness of the dynamic security measures
and block cartridges that previously worked.
Updates can improve, enhance, or extend the printer’s functionality and features, protect against security
threats, and serve other purposes, but these updates can also block cartridges using modified or non-HP
electronic circuitry from working in the printer, including cartridges that work today. Unless you are enrolled in
certain HP programs such as Instant Ink or use other services that require automatic online firmware updates,
most HP printers can be configured to receive updates either automatically or with a notification that allows
you to choose whether to update or not. For more information on dynamic security and how to configure
online firmware updates, please go to www.hp.com/learn/ds .
Information on cartridges and the printhead
The following tips help maintain HP cartridges and ensure consistent print quality.
● The instructions in this guide are for replacing cartridges, and are not intended for first time installation.
● Keep all cartridges in the original sealed packages until they are needed.
● Be sure to turn off the printer properly. For more information, see Turn the printer off .
● Store cartridges at room temperature (15-35° C or 59-95° F).
● Do not clean the printhead unnecessarily. This wastes ink and shortens the life of the cartridges.
● Handle cartridges carefully. Dropping, jarring, or rough handling during installation can cause temporary
printing problems.
● If you are transporting the printer, do the following to prevent ink leaking from the printer or other
damage from occurring to the printer:
– Make sure you turn off the printer by pressing the Power button . Wait until all sounds of internal
motion stop before unplugging the printer.
– Make sure you leave the cartridges installed.
– The printer must be transported sitting flat; it should not be placed on its side, back, front, or top.
