To clean the print cartridge contacts
1. Turn on the product and open the print cartridge door.
The print carriage moves to the center of the product.
2. Wait until the print carriage is idle and silent, and then unplug the power cord from
the back of the product.
3. Lightly press down on the print cartridge to release it, and then pull it toward you out
of the slot.
NOTE: Do not remove both print cartridges at the same time. Remove and clean
each print cartridge one at a time. Do not leave a print cartridge outside the HP All-
in-One for more than 30 minutes.
4. Inspect the print cartridge contacts for ink and debris buildup.
5. Dip a clean foam rubber swab or lint-free cloth into distilled water, and squeeze any
excess water from it.
6. Hold the print cartridge by its sides.
7. Clean only the copper-colored contacts. Allow the print cartridges to dry for
approximately ten minutes before reinserting.
1 Copper-colored contacts
