Using and Caring for Your Print Cartridges

2

If You See Ink Streaks...

Clean the print cartridges and the print cartridge cradle by following
the instructions below.

1

Double-click the

HP DeskJet Toolbox

icon on the computer

screen.

2

Click

Clean the print cartridges

and follow the on-screen directions. If this

does not prevent streaks, follow the instructions for manually cleaning the
print cartridges on page 35.

Be careful not to get ink on your hands or clothing.

Manually Cleaning the Print Cartridges and Print Cartridge Cradle

In order to properly clean the print cartridges and cradle, you will need distilled or
bottled water and cotton swabs or a similar lint-free absorbent material that will
not stick to the cartridges.

1

Press the Power Button to turn the printer on, then lift the top cover.

2

After the print cartridges move, unplug the power cord from the back of the
printer.

Keep new and used print cartridges out of the reach of children.

3

Remove the print cartridges and place them wide side down on a piece
of paper.

Do NOT touch the print cartridge ink nozzles or copper contacts. Touching
these parts will result in clogs, ink failure, and bad electrical connection. Also,
do NOT remove the copper strips; these are required electrical contacts.
