Note

Do not touch the ink nozzles or the copper-colored contacts, and do not

re-tape the cartridges.

To insert the cartridges
1.

If you are replacing an HP Black, HP Photo, or HP Gray Photo cartridge, push
down and pull outward on the cartridge in the right stall to remove it.

2.

Hold the new cartridge with the label on top. Slide the cartridge at a slight upward
angle into the right stall so the copper-colored contacts go in first. Gently push
the cartridge until it snaps into place.

Caution

To avoid print carriage jams, make sure the print cartridge

snaps securely into place as you insert it.

3.

Repeat the previous steps to install the HP Tri-color cartridge in the left stall.

4.

Lower the main cover.

When you are not using a print cartridge

Whenever you remove a print cartridge from the printer, store it in the print cartridge
protector. The cartridge protector keeps the ink from drying out when the cartridge is
not being used. Failure to properly store your cartridge can cause the cartridge to
malfunction.
➔ To insert a cartridge into the cartridge protector, slide the cartridge into the

protector at a slight angle and snap it securely into place.
