Supported ink cartridges
Ordering cartridges online is not supported in all countries/regions. However, many
countries have information on ordering by telephone, locating a local store and printing
a shopping list. In addition, you can select the How to Buy option at the top of the
www.hp.com/buy/supplies page to obtain information about purchasing HP products in
your country.
You can find the ink cartridge number in the following places:
On the Information page of the embedded Web server (see
Embedded Web
server).
Windows: From the HP Toolbox, if you have bidirectional communication, click
the Estimated Ink Levels tab, scroll to display the Cartridge Details button, and
then click Cartridge Details.
Mac OS X: From the HP Printer Utility, click Supply Info from the Information
and Support panel, and then click Retail Supplies Information.
On the label of the ink cartridge you are replacing.
Solution Center: From the Solution Center you can view supplies information from
the Shopping tab or the estimated ink level screen.
On the configuration page (see
Understand the self-test diagnostic page).
NOTE: Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of
different ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the device and
cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear
and ink flowing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after
it is used. For more information see
