We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

If you notice that your HP 805 ink cartridge is leaking from the bottom where the ink passes out for printing, follow these steps:

Stop Using the Leaking Cartridge Immediately:

• Do not continue to use the printer if you notice significant ink leakage.

Remove the Cartridge:

• Turn on the printer and open the cartridge access door.
• Wait for the carriage to move to the center and stop.
• Carefully press the front of the leaking cartridge to release it and gently remove it from its slot.

Inspect the Cartridge:

• Check for visible signs of damage or defects on the cartridge. Even if it's not broken externally, internal issues could cause leakage.

Replace the Cartridge:

• Replace the leaking cartridge with a new one.
• It is recommended to use genuine HP ink cartridges to ensure compatibility and avoid future issues.

Clean Up:

• Clean any spilled ink inside the printer with a damp cloth. Be cautious not to touch any electrical contacts or get ink on your skin.

Check Ink Levels:

• Ensure that the new cartridge is properly seated and check the estimated ink levels through the printer’s control panel or software.

Recap and Store the Leaking Cartridge:

• Cap the leaking cartridge securely to avoid any further leakage.  

Hope this helps!
