[. . . ] Cleaning may also make it easier to diagnose problems. Clean the exterior with a soft cloth moistened with mild detergent and water. Caution: Clean the printer only with water or water mixed with a mild detergent. Using other cleaners or alcohol may damage the printer. Caution:: The ink in the print cartridges has been carefully formulated by HewlettPackard to ensure superior print quality and compatibility with your printer. Damage to the printer or the print cartridge resulting from modifying or refilling the print cartridge is not the responsibility of HP. Selecting and Loading Paper The printer prints on plain paper and most other types of paper. Most plain paper used for photocopying yields good results. Note: Paper does not need to be removed from the main bottom media tray when using the alternative top media feed. The printer checks for paper feeding from the alternative top media feed. If paper is detected, the printer picks paper from there without checking the main bottom media tray. · Always use paper that conforms to the printer specifications. · Do not use media that is damaged, curled, or wrinkled. Do not use paper with cutouts or perforations or paper that is heavily textured or embossed. · Do not use multiple-part forms. If the sample page prints, then the problem is not with the printer. · Check the printer setup Make sure your HP DeskJet printer is selected as the current or default printer and that Pause Printing is not checked. · Check the network setup Make sure that your printer is properly set up in your network environment. See Use the printer on a network on the "How Do I?" 21 Toolbox help, and the documentation provided by your network vendors. A Blank Page is Ejected · Check that the tape is removed from the ink nozzles on the print cartridges. · Check that the media you are using is wide enough The media width must match the page settings in your print settings. · Check for an empty print cartridge If you are printing black text and a blank page is printed, your black print cartridge may be empty. · Check the printer setup Make sure your printer is selected as the current or default printer. · Check the parallel port on your computer If you are using a parallel cable, make sure your printer is connected directly to the parallel port. Do not share the port with other devices such as a Zip drive. Placement of the Text or Graphics is Wrong · The paper size or orientation settings may be incorrect Make sure the paper size and page orientation selected in the software program match the settings in the HP print settings dialog box. · The paper may not be loaded correctly If everything on the page is slanted or skewed, make sure the paper width and length guides fit snugly against the left and bottom edges of the paper stack and that there are no more than 150 sheets of paper loaded in the main tray or 10 sheets of paper in the alternative tray. · The margin settings may be wrong If the text or graphics are cut off at the edges of the page, make sure the margin settings for the document do not exceed the printable area of your printer. Something on the Page is Missing or Incorrect · The margin settings may be wrong Make sure the margin settings for the document do not exceed the printable area of your printer. 22 · Color print settings may be wrong Grayscale might be selected in the HP print settings dialog box.
