Handling precautions
These precautions are recommended to avoid damage to your printer and its components.
Power supply
●
Only use a 200-240 V AC power supply voltage.
●
Check the printer electrical outlet for proper polarity and grounding before connecting printer. Failure
to do so may result in fire and electric shock hazards.
●
Be sure the printer is well-grounded. Failure to ground the printer may result in electrical shock, fire,
and susceptibility to electromagnetic interference.
●
Avoid overloading the printer’s electrical outlet with multiple devices.
●
Use only the electrical cord supplied by HP with the printer.
Printer
●
Wipe the printer clean with a soft cloth. A cloth moistened with a neutral detergent may be used. Do
not allow liquid to enter the printer. This may create risk of fire and electrical shock and cause a
malfunction. Do not clean the printer with benzene or paint thinner. This may damage the paint.
●
Never touch the printhead nozzles. They can be easily damaged or clogged.
Regular inspection and maintenance
●
Clean the capping unit and wiper blade every day.
●
Check the moisture of the wiper sponge every day.
●
Store the ink system when leaving the printer for a long time (two weeks or more with the power off).
●
Clean and charge the ink system before printing when leaving the printer for a long time.
Consumables
●
Ink inside the ink cartridge is combustible. Do not expose or store near open flames, sparks, or other
sources of ignition.
●
HP ink cartridges must be installed before the “Install By” date printed on the cartridge. Use of the ink
cartridge 3 months beyond the “Install By” date may cause deterioration in print quality or a printer
malfunction.
●
Do not disassemble the ink cartridges. Ink cartridges are intended for single use only.
●
Avoid contact between ink and skin, eyes, and clothing.
●
Immediately wash skin with soapy water.
●
Remove clothing soaked with ink from contact with skin.
●
Use an approved eye wash station if ink is splashed into eyes and consult a doctor if necessary.
If an approved eye wash station is unavailable, flush eyes with cold water and consult a doctor
if necessary.
