Can the HD on the formatter board be replaced with an SSD?

If so, what would be the procedure for formatting or cloning if needed?

You cannot install an SSD drive, the controller on  HP printers does not support SSD, even most current ones. As well, the drive has custom formatting and you typically will need to purchase a drive preformatted by HP.
