Install the HP ink cartridges that came with your printer.

  שים לב:

When you first setup the printer you must install the cartridges that shipped in the box. These cartridges are labeled SETUP, and they calibrate your printer before the first print job. Failure to install the SETUP cartridges during the initial printer setup causes an error.

1. If the printer is off, press the Power button to turn on the printer.
2. Open the cartridge access door. The carriage moves to the access area.
   
3. Remove an ink cartridge from its package, and then pull the orange pull-tab straight back to remove the plastic wrap.

     שים לב:

   Make sure you remove the orange pull-tab and plastic wrap completely before you remove the orange cap in the next step. Otherwise, ink might leak from the ink cartridge. When you remove the plastic wrap, the paper label on the top of the ink cartridge tears slightly, which is necessary to properly vent the ink cartridge.

   
4. Hold the ink cartridge by its sides, and then twist the orange cap counter-clockwise to remove it from the ink cartridge.
   
5. Slide the ink cartridge into its slot, and then press down on the ink cartridge until it snaps into place.
   
6. Repeat these steps to insert the other cartridges.
7. Close the cartridge access door.
