Cleaning the print cartridge and surrounding areas
If your printing is smeared, it could be caused by a buildup of debris
on the print cartridge. To correct this problem, clean the print car-
tridge, cartridge holder, and the inside area of the HP Fax.
1 Make sure you have the following materials at hand:
Cotton swabs or any soft material that will not come apart or
leave fibers.
Distilled, filtered, or bottled water.
Scrap paper to set the print cartridge on while you are working.
2
Remove the print cartridge:
Turn on the HP Fax and lift the top cover. The print cartridge
moves to the center.
With the print cartridge in the center, unplug the power cord.
Remove the print cartridge and place it on its side on a scrap
piece of paper.
Caution:
Don't leave the print cartridge outside the fax more than 30
minutes.
Keep the print cartridge out of reach of children.
Be careful not to get ink on your hands or clothing.
3 Clean the print cartridge:
Dip a clean cotton swab into distilled water and squeeze out any
excess water.
Hold the print cartridge by the colored cap.
Clean the face and edges of the print cartridge. DO NOT wipe the
nozzle plate.
Hold the print cartridge up to the light to look for fibers on the
face and edges. If fibers remain, clean the cartridge again.
