Moisture
NOTE: This product dissipates heat by using convective
cooling. The heat and moisture generated by the printing
process escape through vents in the product exterior or
through the output bin area.
Verify normal product operation
The release of moisture is a result of normal product operation.
However, HP recommends using the following steps to verify
that the product is releasing steam and does not have a
functional problem.
1. Turn the product off, and then on.
2. Send a print job to the product, and then verify that the
product is operating correctly.
3. When printing a job and vapor is visible, immediately
reprint the job using the same sheet of paper. There
should be either no visible vapor, or much less vapor
during the printing process.
