Check the estimated ink levels
You can check the estimated ink levels from the printer software or from the printer control panel.
To check the estimated ink levels from the printer control panel
From Home screen, touch (Ink) to check the estimated ink levels.
NOTE: Ink level alerts and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low-
ink alert, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not have
to replace the cartridges until prompted to do so.
NOTE: If you have installed a relled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in
another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.
NOTE: Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of dierent ways, including in the
initialization process, which prepares the printer and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which
keeps print nozzles clear and ink owing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after
it is used. For more information, see www.hp.com/go/inkusage .
Replace the cartridges
NOTE: For information on recycling used ink supplies, see HP inkjet supplies recycling program.
If you do not already have replacement cartridges for the printer, see Order cartridges .
NOTE: At this time, some portions of the HP website are available in English only.
NOTE: Not all cartridges are available in all countries/regions.
CAUTION: Whenever you remove a cartridge, you should replace it as quickly as possible. Leaving an ink
cartridge slot empty exposes the printhead to the air, and can result in print quality issues or printhead
damage. Never turn the printer o while an ink cartridge is missing.
To replace the cartridges
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and the scanner lid is closed.
2. Open the cartridge access door.
NOTE: Wait until the print carriage stops moving before proceeding.
