    E["Printer"] -->|Wireless Signal| R

Ad-hoc wireless network

The product communicates directly with other wireless devices without using a wireless router.

HP LaserJet Pro Color CM1415FNW - Wireless communication modes - 2

text_image Diagram showing three connected devices: a laptop, a desktop computer, and a printer with signal waves.

All devices on the ad hoc network must have the following:

802.11b/g compatibility
The same SSID
• The same subnet and channel
• The same 802.11b/g security settings

Wireless security

To make your wireless network easy to distinguish from other wireless networks, use a unique network name (SSID) for your wireless router. Your wireless router might have a default network name, which is typically the manufacturer's name. For information on how to change the network name, see the documentation that came with the wireless router.

To prevent other users from accessing your network, turn on WPA or WEP data encryption.

  • Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP): WEP is the original native security mechanism in the 802.11 standard. You create a unique key containing hexadecimal or alphanumeric characters, which other users must provide before they can access your network.
  • Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA): WPA uses the temporal key integrity protocol (TKIP) for encryption and employs 802.1X authentication. It addresses all known weaknesses of WEP. You create a unique passphrase containing a combination of letters and numbers, which other users must provide before they can access your network.
    WPA2 provides the advanced encryption standard (AES), and is an improvement over WPA.

Manual color options

Use manual color options to adjust the Neutral Grays, Halftone, and Edge Control options for text, graphics, and photographs.

Table 8-1 Manual color options

Setting description Setting options
Edge ControlOff turns off both trapping and adaptive halftoning.
The Edge Control setting determines the rendering of edges. Edge control has two components: adaptive halftoning and trapping. Adaptive halftoning increases edge sharpness. Trapping reduces the effect of color-plane misregistration by overlapping the edges of adjacent objects slightly.Light sets trapping at a minimal level. Adaptive halftoning is on.Normal sets trapping at a medium level. Adaptive halftoning is on.Maximum is the most aggressive trapping setting. Adaptive halftoning is on.
HalftoneSmooth provides better results for large, solid-filled print areas and enhances photographs by smoothing color gradations. Select this option when uniform and smooth area fills are important.
Halftone options affect color output clarity and resolution.Detail is useful for text and graphics that require sharp distinctions among lines or colors, or images that contain a pattern or a high level of detail. Select this option when sharp edges and small details are important.
Neutral GraysBlack Only generates neutral colors (grays and black) by using only black toner. This guarantees neutral colors without a color cast. This setting is best for documents and grayscale viewgraphs.
The Neutral Grays setting determines the method for creating gray colors used in text, graphics, and photographs.4-Color generates neutral colors (grays and black) by combining all four toner colors. This method produces smoother gradients and transitions to other colors, and it produces the darkest black.

Use the HP EasyColor option for Windows

If you are using the HP PCL 6 printer driver for Windows, the HP EasyColor technology automatically improves mixed-content documents that are printed from Microsoft Office programs. This technology scans documents and automatically adjusts photographic images in .JPEG or .PNG format. HP EasyColor technology enhances the entire image at one time, rather than dividing it into several pieces, which results in improved color consistency, sharper details, and faster printing.

In the following example, the images on the left were created without using the HP EasyColor option. The images on the right show the enhancements that result from using the HP EasyColor option.

text_image Bring your photos to LIFE powered by hp EasyColor and the UPD

The HP EasyColor option is enabled by default in the HP PCL 6 printer driver, so you do not need to make manual color adjustments. To disable the option so you can manually adjust the color settings, open the Color tab, and click the HP EasyColor check box to clear it.

Match colors

For most users, the best method for matching colors is to print sRGB colors.

The process of matching printer output color to your computer screen is complex, because printers and computer monitors use different methods of producing color. Monitors display colors by using light pixels that use an RGB (red, green, blue) color process, but printers print colors by using a CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) process.

Several factors can influence your ability to match printed colors to those on your monitor:

Print media
• Printer colorants (inks or toners, for example)
- Printing process (inkjet, press, or laser technology, for example)
Overhead lighting
• Personal differences in perception of color
- Software programs
Printer drivers
• Computer operating systems
Monitors
• Video cards and drivers
• Operating environment (humidity, for example)

Keep these factors in mind when colors on your screen do not perfectly match your printed colors.

Scan methods

Perform scan jobs in the following ways.

  • Scan to a USB flash drive from the product control panel.
  • Scan from the computer by using HP Scan software
  • Scan from TWAIN-compliant or Windows Imaging Application (WIA)-compliant software

NOTE: To learn about and use text-recognition software, install the Readiris program from the software CD. Text-recognition software is also known as optical character recognition (OCR) software.

Scan to a USB flash drive

  1. Load the document onto the scanner glass or into the document feeder.
  2. Insert a USB flash drive into the port on the front of the product.
  3. From the Home screen, touch the Scan button.
  4. Touch the Scan to USB Drive screen.
  5. Touch the Scan button to scan and save the file. The product creates a folder named HP on the USB drive, and it saves the file in .PDF or .JPG format using an automatically generated file name.
    NOTE: When the summary screen opens, you can touch it to adjust settings.

Scan by using HP Scan software (Windows)

  1. Double-click the HP Scan icon on the computer desktop.
  2. Select a scanning shortcut, and adjust the settings if necessary.
  3. Click Scan.

NOTE: Click Advanced Settings to gain access to more options.

Click Create New Shortcut to create a customized set of settings and save it in the list of shortcuts.

Scan by using other software

The product is TWAIN-compliant and Windows Imaging Application (WIA)-compliant. The product works with Windows-based programs that support TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant scanning devices and with Macintosh-based programs that support TWAIN-compliant scanning devices.

While you are in a TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant program, you can gain access to the scanning feature and scan an image directly into the open program. For more information, see the Help file or the documentation that came with your TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant software program.

Scan from a TWAIN-compliant program

Generally, a software program is TWAIN-compliant if it has a command such as Acquire, File Acquire, Scan, Import New Object, Insert from, or Scanner. If you are unsure whether the program is compliant or you do not know what the command is called, see the software program Help or documentation.

When scanning from a TWAIN-compliant program, the HP Scan software program might start automatically. If the HP Scan program starts, you can make changes while previewing the image. If the program does not start automatically, the image goes to the TWAIN-compliant program immediately.

Start the scan from within the TWAIN-compliant program. See the software program Help or documentation for information about the commands and steps to use.

Scan from a WIA-compliant program

WIA is another way to scan an image directly into a software program. WIA uses Microsoft software to scan, instead of the HP Scan software.

Generally, a software program is WIA-compliant if it has a command such as Picture/From Scanner or Camera in the Insert or File menu. If you are unsure whether the program is WIA-compliant, see the software program Help or documentation.

Start the scan from within the WIA-compliant program. See the software program Help or documentation for information about the commands and steps to use.

-Or-

From the Windows control panel, in the Cameras and Scanner folder (located inside the Hardware and Sound folder for Windows Vista and Windows 7), double-click the product icon. This opens the standard Microsoft WIA Wizard, which enables you to scan to a file.

Scan by using optical character recognition (OCR) software

To import scanned text into your preferred word-processing program for editing, open the HP Scan software and select the shortcut named Save as Editable Text (OCR).

You can also use third-party OCR software. The Readiris OCR program is included on a separate CD that shipped with the product. To use the Readiris program, install it from the appropriate software CD, and then follow the instructions in the online Help.

Cancel a scan

To cancel a scan job, use one of the following procedures.

  • On the product control panel, touch the Cancel ✗ button.
  • Click the Cancel button in the on-screen dialog box.

Scan settings

Scanner resolution and color

If you are printing a scanned image, and the quality is not what you expected, you might have selected a resolution or color setting in the scanner software that does not match your needs. Resolution and color affect the following features of scanned images:

• Image clarity
• Texture of gradations (smooth or rough)
- Scan time
File size

Scanning resolution is measured in pixels per inch (ppi).

NOTE: Scanning ppi levels are not interchangeable with printing dpi (dots per inch) levels.

Color, grayscale, and black and white define the number of colors possible. You can adjust the scanner hardware resolution to up to 1200 ppi.

The resolution and color guidelines table lists simple tips that you can follow to meet your scanning needs.

NOTE: Setting the resolution and color to a high value can create large files that take up disk space and slow the scanning process. Before setting the resolution and color, determine how you are going to use the scanned image.

Resolution and color guidelines

The following table describes the recommended resolution and color settings for different types of scan jobs.

  2. Touch the Fax Setup menu.
  3. Touch the Advanced Setup menu.

  4. Scroll to and touch the Redial if Busy button, and then touch the On button.

Use this procedure to change the default resolution for all fax jobs to one of the following settings:

• Standard: This setting provides the lowest quality and the fastest transmission time.
- Fine: This setting provides a higher resolution quality than Standard that is usually appropriate for text documents.
- Superfine: This setting is best used for documents that mix text and images. The transmission time is slower than the Fine setting but faster than the Photo setting.
• Photo: This setting produces the best images, but greatly increases the transmission time.

The factory-set default resolution setting is Fine.

If the billing codes feature is on, the product prompts you to enter a billing code for each fax. The product increases the billing code count for each sent fax page. This includes all types of faxes except for poll-received, fax-forwarded, or computer-downloaded faxes. For an undefined group or a group-dial fax, the product increases the billing code count for each successful fax that is sent to each destination.

The factory-set default for the billing-code setting is Off. The billing code can be any number from 1 through 250.

Set the billing-code setting

  1. From the Home screen, touch the Setup button.
  2. Touch the Fax Setup menu.
  3. Touch the Advanced Setup menu.

  2. Touch the Fax Menu button.
  3. Touch the Fax Reports button.
  4. Scroll to and touch the Print Billing Report button.

Receive fax settings

Set fax forwarding

You can set your product to forward incoming faxes to another fax number. When the fax arrives at your product, it is stored in the memory. The product then dials the fax number that you have specified and sends the fax. If the product cannot forward a fax because of an error (for example, the number is busy) and repeated redial attempts are unsuccessful, your product prints the fax.

If the product runs out of memory while receiving a fax, it terminates the incoming fax and only forwards the pages and partial pages that have been stored in the memory.

When it is using the fax-forwarding feature, the product (rather than the computer) must be receiving the faxes, and the answer mode must be set to Automatic.

  1. From the Home screen, touch the Fax button.
  2. Touch the Fax Menu button.
  3. Touch the Receive Options button.
  4. Touch the Forward Fax button, and touch the On button.
  5. Use the keypad to enter the fax-forwarding number, and then touch the OK button.

Set the answer mode

Depending on the situation, set the product answer mode to Automatic, TAM, Fax/Tel, or Manual. The factory-set default is Automatic.

  • Automatic: The product answers incoming calls after a specified number of rings or upon recognition of special fax tones.
  • TAM: The product does not automatically answer the call. Instead, it waits until it detects the fax tone.
  • Fax/Tel: The product answers incoming calls immediately. If it detects the fax tone, it processes the call as a fax. If it does not detect the fax tone, it creates an audible ring to alert you to answer the incoming voice call.
  • Manual: The product never answers calls. You must start the fax-receiving process yourself, either by touching the Start Fax button on the control panel or by picking up a telephone that is connected to that line and dialing 1-2-3.

To set or change the answer mode, complete the following steps:

  1. From the Home screen, touch the Setup button.
  2. Touch the Fax Setup menu.
  3. Touch the Basic Setup menu.

  4. Scroll to and touch the Answer Mode button, and then touch the name of the option that you want to use.

Block or unblock fax numbers

If you do not want to receive faxes from specific people or businesses, you can block as many as 30 fax numbers by using the control panel. When you block a fax number and someone from that number sends you a fax, the control-panel display indicates that the number is blocked, the fax does not print, and the fax is not saved in memory. Faxes from blocked fax numbers appear in the fax activity log with a “discarded” designation. You can unblock blocked fax numbers individually or all at one time.

NOTE: The sender of a blocked fax is not notified that the fax failed.

  1. From the Home screen, touch the Fax button.
  2. Touch the Fax Menu button.
  3. Touch the Receive Options button.

  4. Touch the Block Junk Faxes button.

  5. Touch the Add Number button.
  6. Use the keypad to enter the fax number that you want to block, and then touch the OK button.

Set the number of rings-to-answer

When the answer mode is set to Automatic, the product rings-to-answer setting determines the number of times the telephone rings before the product answers an incoming call.

If the product is connected to a line that receives both fax and voice calls (a shared line) and that also uses an answering machine, you might need to adjust the rings-to-answer setting. The number of rings-to-answer for the product must be greater than the rings-to-answer on the answering machine. This allows the answering machine to answer the incoming call and record a message if it is a voice call. When the answering machine answers the call, the product listens to the call and automatically answers it if it detects fax tones.

The default setting for rings-to-answer is five for the U.S. and Canada, and two for other countries/regions.

Use the following table to determine the number of rings-to-answer to use.

Type of telephone line Recommended rings-to-answer setting
Dedicated fax line (receiving only fax calls)Set to a number of rings within the range shown on the control-panel display. (The minimum and maximum number of rings allowed varies by country/region.)
One line with two separate numbers and a ring-pattern serviceOne or two rings. (If you have an answering machine or computer voicemail for the other telephone number, make sure that the product is set to a greater number of rings than the answering system. Also, use the distinctive-ring feature to differentiate between voice and fax calls.)
Shared line (receiving both fax and voice calls) with only an attached telephoneFive rings or more.
Shared line (receiving both fax and voice calls) with an attached answering machine or computer voicemailTwo rings more than the answering machine or computer voicemail.

To set or change the number of rings-to-answer, use the following steps:

  1. From the Home screen, touch the Setup button.
  2. Touch the Fax Setup menu.
  3. Touch the Basic Setup menu.
  4. Touch the Rings to Answer button.
  5. Use the keypad to enter the number of rings, and then touch the OK button.

Set distinctive ring

Ring-pattern or distinctive-ring service is available through some local telephone companies. The service allows you to have more than one telephone number on a single line. Each telephone number has a unique ring pattern, so that you can answer voice calls and the product can answer fax calls.

If you subscribe to a ring-pattern service with a telephone company, you must set the product to answer the correct ring pattern. Not all countries/regions support unique ring patterns. Contact the telephone company to determine if this service is available in your country/region.

HP LaserJet Pro Color CM1415FNW - Set distinctive ring - 1

NOTE: If you do not have ring-pattern service and you change the ring-pattern settings to something other than the default, All Rings, the product might not be able to receive faxes.

The settings are as follows:

• All Rings: The product answers any calls that come through the telephone line.
• Single: The product answers any calls that produce a single-ring pattern.
• Double: The product answers any calls that produce a double-ring pattern.
- Triple: The product answers any calls that produce a triple-ring pattern.
• Double and Triple: The product answers any calls that produce a double-ring or triple-ring pattern.

To change ring patterns for call answering, complete the following steps:

  1. From the Home screen, touch the Setup button.
  2. Touch the Fax Setup menu.
  3. Touch the Basic Setup menu.
  4. Touch the Distinctive Ring button, and then touch the name of an option.

Use autoreduction for incoming faxes

If the fit-to-page option is turned on, the product automatically reduces long faxes up to 75% to fit the information on the default paper size (for example, the fax is reduced from legal to letter size).

If the fit-to-page option is turned off, long faxes print at full size on multiple pages. The factory-set default for incoming fax autoreduction is On.

If you have the Stamp Faxes option turned on, you might also want to turn on autoreduction. This reduces the size of the incoming faxes slightly, and prevents the page-stamp from forcing a fax onto two pages.

HP LaserJet Pro Color CM1415FNW - Use autoreduction for incoming faxes - 1

Use fax on a DSL, PBX, or ISDN system

HP products are designed specifically for use with traditional analog phone services. They are not designed to work on DSL, PBX, ISDN lines, or VoIP services, but they work with the proper setup and equipment.

HP LaserJet Pro Color CM1415FNW - Use fax on a DSL, PBX, or ISDN system - 1

NOTE: HP recommends discussing DSL, PBX, ISDN, and VoIP setup options with the service provider.

The HP LaserJet product is an analog device that is not compatible with all digital phone environments (unless a digital-to-analog converter is used). HP does not guarantee that the product will be compatible with digital environments or digital-to-analog converters.

DSL

A digital subscriber line (DSL) uses digital technology over standard copper telephone wires. This product is not directly compatible with those digital signals. However, if the configuration is specified during DSL setup, the signal can be separated so that some of the bandwidth is used to transmit an analog signal (for voice and fax) while the remaining bandwidth is used to transmit digital data.

HP LaserJet Pro Color CM1415FNW - DSL - 1

NOTE: Not all faxes are compatible with DSL services. HP does not guarantee that the product will be compatible with all DSL service lines or providers.

A typical DSL modem employs a filter to separate the higher frequency DSL modem communication from lower frequency analog phone and fax modem communication. It is often necessary to use a filter with analog phones and analog fax products that are connected to a telephone line used by a DSL modem. The DSL service provider usually provides this filter. Contact the DSL provider for more information or for assistance.

PBX

The product is an analog device that is not compatible in all digital phone environments. Digital-to-analog filters or converters may be needed for faxing functionality. If faxing issues occur in a PBX environment, it might be necessary to contact the PBX provider for assistance. HP does not guarantee that the product will be compatible with digital environments or digital-to-analog converters.

Contact the PBX provider for more information and for assistance.

ISDN

The product is an analog device that is not compatible in all digital phone environments. Digital-to-analog filters or converters may be needed for faxing functionality. If faxing issues occur in an ISDN environment, it might be necessary to contact the ISDN provider for assistance. HP does not guarantee that the product will be compatible with ISDN digital environments or digital-to-analog converters.

Use fax on a VoIP service

Voice over internet protocol (VoIP) services are often not compatible with fax machines unless the provider explicitly states that it supports fax over IP services.

If the product experiences problems getting a fax to work on a VoIP network, verify that all cables and settings are correct. Decreasing the fax-speed setting might allow the product to send a fax over a VoIP network.

If the VoIP provider offers a "Pass through" mode for the connection, that will offer better fax performance on VoIP. Also if the provider has "comfort noise" added to the line, fax performance can be enhanced if this feature is not enabled.

If faxing problems continue, contact the VoIP provider.

Fax memory

Fax memory contents are retained when there is a loss of power

The flash memory protects against data loss when a power failure occurs. Other fax devices store fax pages in either normal RAM or short-term RAM. Normal RAM immediately loses data when power is lost, while short-term RAM loses data about 60 minutes after a power failure occurs. Flash memory can maintain its data for years without power applied.

Change error correction and fax speed

Set the fax-error-correction mode

Usually, the product monitors the signals on the telephone line while it is sending or receiving a fax. If the product detects an error during the transmission and the error-correction setting is On, the product can request that the portion of the fax be resent. The factory-set default for error correction is On.

You should turn off error correction only if you are having trouble sending or receiving a fax, and you are willing to accept the errors in the transmission. Turning off the setting might be useful when you are trying to send a fax overseas or receive one from overseas, or if you are using a satellite telephone connection.

  1. From the Home screen, touch the Setup 8 button.
  2. Touch the Service menu.
  3. Touch the Fax Service menu.

Change the fax speed

The fax-speed setting is the modem protocol that the product uses to send faxes. It is the worldwide standard for full-duplex modems that send and receive data across telephone lines at up to 33,600 bits per second (bps). The factory-set default for the fax-speed setting is Fast(V.34).

You should change the setting only if you are having trouble sending a fax to or receiving a fax from a particular device. Decreasing the fax speed might be useful when you are trying to send a fax overseas, or receive one from overseas, or if you are using a satellite telephone connection.

  1. From the Home screen, touch the Setup

Use the HP Embedded Web Server

This product is equipped with an embedded Web server (EWS), which provides access to information about product and network activities. A Web server provides an environment in which web programs may run, much in the same way that an operating system, such as Windows, provides an environment for programs to run on a computer. The output from these programs can then be displayed by a Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Safari, or Netscape Navigator.

An “embedded” Web server resides on a hardware device (such as an HP LaserJet product) or in firmware, rather than as software that is loaded on a network server.

The advantage of an EWS is that it provides an interface to the product that anyone with a network-connected product and computer can use. There is no special software to install or configure, but you must have a supported Web browser on the computer. To gain access to the EWS, type the IP address for the product in the address line of the browser. To find the IP address, print a configuration page.

NOTE: For Macintosh operating systems, you can use the EWS over a USB connection after installing the Macintosh software included with the product.

Open the HP Embedded Web Server

To open the HP Embedded Web Server, type the IP address or host name of the product in the address field of a supported Web browser. To find the IP address or host name, print a configuration page.

NOTE: If an error occurs while opening the HP Embedded Web Server, confirm that the proxy settings are correct for your network.

TIP: After you open the URL, bookmark it so that you can return to it quickly in the future.

Features

The EWS allows you to view product and network status and manage printing functions from a computer. With the EWS, you can complete the following tasks:

• View product status information
• Determine the remaining life on all supplies and order new ones
• View and change part of the product configuration
• View and print some internal pages
- Select the language in which to display the EWS pages and control panel messages
• View and change network configuration
- Set, change, or clear the product security password.

NOTE: Changing network settings in the EWS might disable some of product software or features.

Supplies messages

Supply-related notifications are communicated on the product control panel and on computers that have the full product software installed. If the full product software is not installed, you might not receive all supply-related notifications in a prominent manner. To install the full product software, insert the CD that came with the product and follow the steps for the full install.

A Low message—where is the color cartridge—appears when a print cartridge is nearing the estimated end of its useful life.
- A Very Low message appears when the print cartridge is at its estimated end of useful life. To ensure optimal print quality, HP recommends replacing a print cartridge when the Very Low message appears.

Print-quality problems can occur when using a cartridge that is at its estimated end of life. The supply does not need to be replaced at this point in time unless the print quality is no longer acceptable.

HP LaserJet Pro Color CM1415FNW - Supplies messages - 1

NOTE: Using the Continue setting allows printing beyond Very Low without customer interaction and can result in unsatisfactory print quality.

When a color print cartridge becomes very low, the product prints in black only to prevent fax interruptions. To configure the product to print in color and use the remaining toner in the print cartridge past very low, follow these steps:

  1. From the Home screen on the control panel, touch the Setup button.
  2. Touch the System Setup button.
  3. Touch the At Very Low button.
  4. Touch the Color Cartridges button, and then touch the Continue button.

When you choose to replace the very low print cartridge, color printing resumes automatically.

Enable or disable the At Very Low settings from the control panel

You can enable or disable the default settings at any time, and you do not have to re-enable them when you install a new print cartridge.

  1. From the Home screen on the control panel, touch the Setup button.
  2. Touch the System Setup button.
  3. Touch the At Very Low button.
  4. Touch the Black Cartridge or the Color Cartridges button.
  5. Select one of the following options:

  6. Select the Continue option to set the product to alert you that the print cartridge is very low, but to continue printing.

  7. Select the Stop option to set the product to stop printing (including printing faxes) until you replace the print cartridge.

  8. Select the Prompt option to set the product to stop printing (including printing faxes) and prompt you to replace the print cartridge. You can acknowledge the prompt and continue printing.

  9. On the Color Cartridges menu only, select Print Black (the default option) to alert you when the print cartridge is very low, but to continue printing in black only.

When the product is set to the Stop option, there is some risk that faxes will not print after the new cartridge is installed if your product has received more faxes than the memory can hold while stopped.

When the product is set to the Prompt option, there is some risk that faxes will not print after the new cartridge is installed if your product has received more faxes than the memory can hold while the product is waiting for the prompt to be acknowledged.

Once an HP supply has reached very low, HP's premium Protection Warranty on that supply has ended. All print defects or cartridge failures incurred when an HP supply is used in Continue at very low mode will not be considered to be defects in materials or workmanship in the supply under the HP Print Cartridge Warranty Statement.

Manage print cartridges

Do not remove the print cartridge from its package until you are ready to use it.

△ CAUTION: To prevent damage to the print cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes.

HP policy on non-HP print cartridges

Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of non-HP print cartridges, either new or remanufactured.

NOTE: Any damage caused by a non-HP print cartridge is not covered under the HP warranty and service agreements.

control panel to check the color alignment. If the blocks of color on that page are not aligned with each other, you need to calibrate the product.

  1. On the product control panel, open the System Setup menu.
  2. Open the Print Quality menu, and select the Color Calibration item.
  3. Select the Calibrate Now option.

Check the print cartridges

Check each print cartridge, and replace it if necessary, if you are having any of the following problems:

The printing is too light or seems faded in areas.
• Printed pages have small unprinted areas.
• Printed pages have streaks or bands.

NOTE: If you are using a draft print setting, the printing might appear light.

If you determine that you need to replace a print cartridge, print the Supplies Status Page to find the part number for the correct genuine HP print cartridge.

Type of print cartridge Steps to resolve the problem
Refilled or remanufactured print cartridgeHewlett Packard Company cannot recommend the use of non-HP supplies, either new or remanufactured. Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence their design or control their quality. If you are using a refilled or remanufactured print cartridge and are not satisfied with the print quality, replace the cartridge with a genuine HP cartridge that has the words “HP” or “Hewlett-Packard” on it, or has the HP logo on it.
Genuine HP print cartridge1. The product control panel or the Supplies Status page indicates Very Low status when the cartridge has reached the end of its estimated life. Replace the print cartridge if print quality is no longer acceptable.2. Print a Print Quality Page from the Reports menu on the control panel. If streaks or marks are in one color on the page, you might have a defect in that color cartridge. See the instructions in this document for interpreting the page. Replace the print cartridge if necessary.3. Visually inspect the print cartridge for damage. See the instructions that follow. Replace the print cartridge if necessary.4. If printed pages have marks that repeat several times at the same distance apart, print a cleaning page. If this does not solve the problem, use the repetitive defects ruler in this document to identify the cause of the problem.

The Supplies Status page indicates the estimated life remaining in print cartridges. It also lists the part number for the correct genuine HP print cartridge for your product so you can order a replacement print cartridge, as well as other useful information.

  1. On the product control panel, open the Reports menu.
  2. Select the Supplies Status page to print it.

Interpret the Print Quality Page

  1. On the product control panel, open the Reports menu.
  2. Select the Print Quality Page item to print it.

This page contains five bands of color, which are divided into four groups as indicated in the following illustration. By examining each group, you can isolate the problem to a particular print cartridge.

  • If dots or streaks appear in only one of the groups, replace the print cartridge that correlates with that group.
  • If dots appear in more than one group, print a cleaning page. If this does not solve the problem, determine if the dots are always the same color; for example, if magenta dots appear in all five color bands. If the dots are all the same color, replace that print cartridge.
  • If streaks appear in multiple color bands, contact HP. A component other than the print cartridge is probably causing the problem.

Inspect the print cartridge for damage

  1. Remove the print cartridge from the product, and verify that the sealing tape has been removed.
  2. Check the memory chip for damage.

  3. Examine the surface of the green imaging drum on the bottom of the print cartridge.

△ CAUTION: Do not touch the green roller (imaging drum) on the bottom of the cartridge. Fingerprints on the imaging drum can cause print-quality problems.
