care and maintenance

This chapter contains information about changing print cartridges, maintaining your HP Fax,
the menu settings, error messages, and troubleshooting.

print cartridge information

The print cartridge life is very sensitive to the content of the received fax or a copy you
made. To increase its life, we recommend you follow the instructions below:
• Always use hp no. 20 (C6614) ink cartridge.
Note: Your HP Fax was shipped with a starter ink cartridge. You must replace it with
the hp no. 20.
• DO NOT unpack the cartridge until you are ready to use it.
• Store it in the same environment as the fax machine.
• If you have unpacked the cartridge but are not using it, store it in a storage unit. If you
do not have a storage unit, store the cartridge in an airtight plastic bag.
• DO NOT leave it exposed for an extended period.
• DO NOT refill the cartridge. The warranty will not cover damage caused by using
refilled cartridges.

view ink level

When using the 28ml print cartridge, your machine allows you to check the amount of ink
remaining. To view the current ink level:
1
Press Menu repeatedly until MAINTENANCE appears and press Start/Enter.
2
Scroll to View Ink Level by pressing
The machine displays a fractional number. For examples, 1/8 means that ink is low
and you need to replace the cartridge. 8/8 means that a new cartridge is installed.
Important: If the HP Fax is low on ink (ink level is 1/8), new faxes that come in will not be
printed. You must manually print the faxes from memory (see reprinting faxes on page 29)
until you replace the ink cartridge (see replace the print cartridge on page 34).
Tip! If memory become full before the print cartridge is replaced, the HP Fax will stop
answering the phone. Be sure to print the faxes out of memory regularly if you do not
immediately replace the ink cartridge.
