How to replace the new cartridge in the printer

Hi @pkajjan,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

Replacing ink cartridges in a printer is a straightforward process, though the exact steps can vary depending on your printer model. Here's a general guide to help you:

General Steps to Replace an Ink Cartridge

Turn On the Printer:

• Make sure your printer is turned on so that the print head moves to the cartridge replacement position.

Open the Printer’s Cartridge Access Door:

• This is usually located at the front or top of the printer. Consult your printer’s manual if you’re unsure where this is.

Wait for the Cartridges to Settle:

• The print head will move to a central position. Wait for it to stop moving before proceeding.

Remove the Old Cartridge:

• Gently press down on the cartridge or its latch to release it. Carefully remove the old cartridge from its slot.

Prepare the New Cartridge:

• Unbox the new cartridge and remove any protective tape or plastic. Be careful not to touch the copper-colored contacts or the nozzle area.

Insert the New Cartridge:

• Align the new cartridge with the slot and insert it gently. Press down until it clicks into place. Ensure it’s securely seated.

Close the Cartridge Access Door:

• Once the new cartridge is installed, close the access door.

Align the Cartridges (if necessary):

• Some printers may prompt you to align the cartridges. Follow the on-screen instructions or refer to your printer’s manual for this step.

Print a Test Page:

• Printing a test page can ensure that the new cartridge is installed correctly and working properly.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
