I'm unboxing my new printer but I can't lift the scanner unit to install the cartridges. I don't want to force it in case I break it. Does anyone know if there is any hidden packaging that may be preventing this? Or does it sound faulty?

That's correct.
I would contact HP support as it should not be this difficult to open the lid.
