1 Safety precautions General safety guid elines WARNING! Inte rnal circ uits use haz ardous voltag e capabl e of causing death or seri ous personal injury .
Fire haz ard CAUTION: The dryi ng and curi ng subsystem s of the printer ope rate at high tem perature s. To avoid the risk of fir e, take the following pr ecautions when operatin g the printer: ● Do not manipulate the heati ng modul es. ● Load subs trates that withsta nd temperature s of 125°C.
Labe l Explanation Identifies the main earth terminal Danger of electric shock. Do not touch. Danger of electric shock. Do not touch. Danger of elect ric shock. In case of operation of the fuse, parts of the printer that remain energiz ed may represent a hazard during servicing.
Labe l Explanation When the printer is printing , the printhead carriage travels back and fort h across the substrate. Beware of this moving par t. Emergenc y stop buttons There ar e four e mergency s top bu ttons distr ibuted ar ound the printer.
2 Printer status Check p rinter status You ca n check th e current s tatus of the prin ter in the fo llowing ways: ● The HP Internal Pr int Serv er displa ys the s tatus of t he printe r, the lo aded sub strate and the ink system. The latest a lerts are summari zed at th e bottom o f the mai n window ( see Prin ter alert s on page 5 ).
3 Printer calibration Align the printhea ds Preci se alignm ent between pr intheads i s essenti al for colo r accur acy, smoo th color tra nsitions and sharp edges in gr aphical el ements. To ali gn the prin theads, go to the HP Internal Print Ser ver and select Pr inter > Printhead alignm ent .
Troubleshoot printhead alignment Automati c printh ead alignm ent may fail oc casiona lly. In som e cases, you may see th e front panel error messag e "Automatic Pr inthead Alignm ent is cancelle d because of sc anning error s". In other cas es, there i s no error message bu t the p rint quality is not sati sfactory .
You ca n view and chang e the substr ate-advan ce compe nsation of the cur rently loa ded subst rate at any time fr om the H P Intern al Prin t Server by select ing the print job and then the Printing Adj. button, or by selec ting Pr inter > Printing adjustments .
The c alibration process i s fully automat ic and can be pe rformed unattended after you hav e loaded substrate of the ty pe you wi sh to c alibrate. The proc ess take s about 1 8 minutes a nd consi sts of t he followi ng steps.
Color c alibration is base d on the color meas urement of printed co lor patc hes, usin g the HP Embe dded Spectr ophotometer. So me charac terisitics of su bstra tes, such as surfac e roughnes s or transpar ency, may ma ke reflective c olor measure ment of some substrate ty pes very i naccurate.

4. Standin g at th e front of the print er, clean th e front ra il using a lint-free c loth damp ened with is opropyl alcoho l. You can acces s the rail from abo ve. NOTE: If you are in Calif ornia, instead of isopr opyl alcohol please use a VOC-certifi ed cleaner such as a properl y diluted 'Sim ple Green ® All- Purpose Cle aner'.
9. Select Carriage beam position > Move to printing (normal) from t he front p anel's Substrate menu to low er the ca rriage bea m into its normal positio n, close to the sub strate. T his proce ss takes about two mi nutes to complete. 10. Replace the carriage o iler foa ms (see Replace the ca rriage oi ler foams o n page 21 ).
3. Clean th e interio r of each ink deposit with a cotto n swab or c loth damp ened with distille d water.

5 Softw are maintenance Maintain the HP In ternal Print Server The HP In ternal P rint Serv er runs un der Microso ft Window s on the computer supplied with the prin ter. In that o perating environ ment, ther e are var ious thin gs you can check in order to mainta in op timum perfor mance.
Update the firmware The prin ter's var ious fun ctions are controlled by softwar e that r esides in the printer, otherwi se known as firmw are. From time to ti me firmwar e updates will be available from Hewl ett-Packar d. These updates inc rease the printer' s functi onality and enha nce its features.
6 Troubleshoot s ubstrate issues The substrate c annot be loaded success fully ● A substrate cannot b e loaded unless all pri nter subsy stems (e.g. the ink syste m) are r eady.
3. If fe asible, man ually mo ve the c arriage s lowly and c arefully to the side, a way from the su bstrate. If thi s is not fea sible becau se of the severit y of the jam , try rais ing the car riage beam to it s maxi mum hei ght.
The substrate sticks to the p laten When the sub strate sticks to the platen, the most lik ely cause s are exce ssive heat and ex cessiv e vacuum . Therefore, try decreasing the dr ying tempe rature or the va cuum. For info rmation on how to adjust printer s ettings, see the User 's guide .
7 Troubleshoot print-quality issues Gene ral advi ce When you hav e any print-qu ality prob lem: ● To achi eve the best performan ce from your prin ter, use onl y genuine HP supplies an d accesso ries, whose re liability and performanc e have been thor oughly test ed to give trouble -free per formance and best- quality pr ints.
If the re are thi n white li nes across the width of the su bstrate: 1. From the HP In ternal Print Se rver, clean and check the pr intheads , and check for b locked nozzles . ● If there are bloc ked noz zles, incr ease the numb er of pa sses. ● If there is a s ubstrate-ad vance p roblem, decrease the substr ate-adva nce sett ing.
If the back s ide of the subs trate varies in c olor or sh ade (for in stance, if so mething has been printed on it), you may see ban ding in p arts of your print be cause th e substr ate-adv ance se nsor ha s becom e confuse d.
Colors are misaligned h orizontally 1. Ensure that the s ubstrate is not skew ed. If there is any skew, r eload the substra te to cor rect it. 2. Check th e carriage beam po sition. I f it i s high and the s ubstrate ty pe doesn 't requi re a hig h positio n, lower it.
a. Incr ease the number of passe s. b. Increase the dr ying tempe rature. c. Decrease t he ink l imit. For informatio n on how to a djust printer s ettings, see the User's guide . The print is smudged This indi cates t hat the ink i s not dry. The characteri stics of t he substr ate may have ch anged.
Colors are inaccurate 1. Check tha t the sub strate ha s been correctly loaded. 2. Check tha t the load ed subst rate is the same as the s ubstrate s elected i n the HP Intern al Prin t Server. 3. Check that the ICC pr ofile us ed by the R IP is correct for the load ed substrate .
8 Troubleshoot ink cartridge and printhead issues Cannot insert an in k cartridge 1. Use the correct procedure to change ink cartridges , through the fron t panel. See the User 's gui de . 2. Check that th ere is no obstruct ion in th e ink car tridge connector.
a. Turn off the printer. b. Place a piece o f paper u nderneath the car riage to collect any dir t that falls through. c. Use the b rush fro m the Clean ing Kit to cle an the elec trical conn ections g ently but th oroughly. d. Use the pne umatic air gun (prov ided for in flating the spindles ) to dislodge any rema ining dirt .
9 Troubleshoot other issues The pri nte r does no t print If all is in order (substrate loaded, all ink com ponents ins talled and no file erro rs), ther e are stil l reasons why a fi le you have sent from your c omputer may not sta rt print ing when e xpected: ● You ma y have an electric al power proble m.
