Common Questions and Answers

• How do I fix printing issues?

  • If the printer is not printing, make sure it is turned on and has paper in the tray. Check for any error messages on the control panel.

  • For HP+ printers, verify that the printer is connected to the internet and that you are using Original HP cartridges.

  • To troubleshoot print quality issues, clean the printhead if your printouts have streaks or missing colors. If the problem persists, try aligning the printhead.

• What do I do about paper jams?

  • The manual provides detailed instructions on how to remove jammed paper from various locations.

  • To avoid paper jams, make sure the paper guides are aligned with the edges of the paper and that the tray is not overloaded.

• How can I fix network connection problems?

  • Wi-Fi connection: If your printer is not connecting, you can restore the network settings and reconnect. You can also print a Wi-Fi test report to diagnose the issue.

  • Wi-Fi Direct connection: Ensure Wi-Fi Direct is turned on on the printer and connect your device to the printer’s Wi-Fi Direct name and password.

  • Ethernet connection: Check that the network is operational, the router is on, and the Ethernet cable is properly connected.

• How do I check the estimated ink levels?

  • You can check the estimated ink levels from the printer’s control panel, using the HP software, or the embedded web server (EWS).

  • The manual notes that these alerts are estimates, and you don’t have to replace cartridges until prompted.

• What should I know about my cartridges?

  • This printer is designed to work with cartridges that have an HP chip. Firmware updates may block cartridges with non-HP chips.

  • Cartridges should be kept in the printer to prevent print quality issues. Do not turn off the printer if a cartridge is missing.
