Do not open the print carriage access door of the HP Fax unless
necessary. This uncaps the nozzles and exposes them to air. The print
cartridges have microscopic nozzles that can clog when exposed to the
air for more than a few minutes. The HP Fax is designed to prevent
nozzles from drying out under normal use.
• Turn off the HP Fax from the front panel and not from a power strip.
• Clean the print cartridges when you notice a significant decrease in print
quality or when the print cartridges have not been used for a long time.
Caution! Do not clean the print cartridges unnecessarily. This
wastes ink and shortens the life of the cartridges.
