Tips on Inserting HP Cartridges

Many HP printers come with a monitoring software that tells you how much ink is remaining. As long as there is ink present, you may use the printer as much as you like; but this software will notify you when your ink levels are running low or have emptied entirely. This is where you need prepare for an HP cartridge replacement.

Before you can insert a new cartridge in, you must take out the old cartridge so you can identify it. There are different families of HP printers sold in the UK and each use different cartridges and may have slightly varied replacement instructions.

Usually, the process starts with the printer door that you need to open. The door usually folds downwards towards the tray and should then expose the internals of the printer. Do not touch any of these delicate components in an attempt to look for the cartridge.

Instead, look for a "change cartridge" button that is normally found on the top of HP printers or right next to the power button. Press this button while the printer door is open and you should see the cartridge holder move in a position where you can grab the cartridge with ease. Pull the green top that holds the cartridge and gently remove it so you won't damage other components by accident. Observe the cartridge and take note of any serial number placed on the cartridge. This will signify which replacement cartridge to get. For safety, bring the cartridge along with you so you can show to the store which cartridge you really need, or if you're ordering online get the serial number and quote this to ensure it is a like for like swap.

Once you managed to purchase a new ink cartridge, putting the new one in place should be relatively straightforward. Just repeat the process by pressing the "change cartridge" button once again. Pull the tape that protects the new cartridge before inserting it into the holder. Ensure that the cartridge stands firmly in the same orientation as the old one before sending the holder back in place. Close the printer door and try printing a test page or check your ink monitor levels to see if they are updated.

If you are ever in doubt because your HP model looks different, you can always consult your printer manual to see the exact step-by-step instructions. These instructions are often accompanied with diagrams so you have an exact idea on what you should do and what you should not do. If you are using the HP monitoring software, you may see a software tutorial that guides you throughout the ink replacement process.

If you cannot find the manual, check the CD and see if there are help documents there. Otherwise, visit the HP support website and search for the exact model of your printer. You may find some useful resources including compatible ink cartridges and PDF copies of the instruction manual. Just be sure you are in the UK support site if you purchased your printer locally. In general, replacing HP cartridges should not give you a very difficult time if you follow instructions.
