using isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol, and wipe the backing thoroughly with a
damp cloth to remove any residual alcohol.
clean the exterior
Use a soft cloth or slightly moistened sponge to wipe dust, smudges, and stains
off the case. The interior of the HP PSC does not require cleaning. Keep fluids
away from the interior of the device as well as the front panel.
Note:
To avoid damage to painted parts of the HP PSC, do not use alcohol
or alcohol-based cleaning products on the front panel or the lid of the
HP PSC.

check the ink levels
You can easily check the ink supply level to determine how soon you might need
to replace a print cartridge. The ink level supply shows an approximation of the
amount of ink remaining in the print cartridges. Checking the ink levels can only
