About cookies of HP DeskJet 2700 All-in-One

The embedded Web server (EWS) places very small text files (cookies) on your hard drive when you are browsing. These files let the EWS recognize your computer the next time you visit. For example, if you have configured the EWS language, a cookie helps remember which language you have selected so that the next time you access the EWS, the pages are displayed in that language. Some cookies (such as the cookie that stores customer-specific preferences) are stored on the computer until you clear them manually.

You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, or you can configure it to alert you every time a cookie is offered, which allows you to decide which cookies to accept or refuse. You can also use your browser to remove unwanted cookies.

Depending on your printer, if you disable cookies, you also disable one or more of the following features:

Tips for print success

  • Ink tips
  • Paper loading tips
  • Printer settings tips (Windows)

To print successfully, the HP cartridges should be functioning properly with sufficient ink, the paper should be loaded correctly, and the printer should have the appropriate settings.

Ink tips

  • Use original HP cartridges.
  • Install both the black and tri-color cartridges correctly.
    For more information, see Replace cartridges.
  • Check the estimated ink levels in the cartridges to make sure there is sufficient ink.
    For more information, see Check estimated ink levels.
  • If the print quality is not acceptable, see Fix print quality issues for more information.

NOTE: Original HP cartridges are designed and tested with HP printers and papers to help you easily produce great results, time after time.

HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP supplies. Product service or repairs required as a result of using a non-HP supply will not be covered under warranty.

If you see a ‘Non-HP Cartridge’ message displayed from the printer software and you believe you purchased original HP cartridges, go to: www.hp.com/go/anticounterfeit .

Paper loading tips

  • Load a stack of paper (not just one page). All of the paper in the stack should be in the same size and type to avoid a paper jam.
  • Load the paper with the side to be printed on facing up.
  • Make sure that paper loaded in the input tray lays flat, and the edges are not bent or torn.
  • Adjust the paper-width guides in the input tray to fit snugly against all paper. Make sure the paper-width guides do not bend the paper in the input tray.

For more information, see Load media. Printer settings tips (Windows)

  • To change default print settings, open the HP printer software, click Print & Scan , and then click Set Preferences. For information how to open the printer software, see Open the HP printer software (Windows).
  • To understand paper and paper tray settings:
    * Paper Size: Select the paper size you loaded in the input tray.
    * Media: Select the paper type you are using.
  • To understand color or black and white settings:
    • Color: Uses ink from all cartridges for full color prints.
    • Black & White or Black Ink Only: Uses the black ink only for normal or lower quality black and white prints.
    • High Quality Grayscale: Uses ink from both the color and black cartridges to produce a wider range of black and grey tones for high quality black and white prints.
  • To understand print quality settings:

The print quality is measured in print resolution dots per inch (dpi). Higher dpi produces clearer and more detailed prints, but slows print speed and might use more ink.

    • Draft: Lowest dpi typically used when ink levels are low or when high quality prints are not needed.
    • Better: Suitable for most print jobs.
    • Best: Better dpi than Better.
    • Max DPI Enabled: Highest dpi setting available for print quality.
  • To understand page and layout settings:
    • Orientation: Select Portrait for vertical prints or Landscape for horizontal prints.
    • Print on Both Sides: Manually flip the pages after one side of the paper prints out so that you can print on both sides of the paper.

○ Flip on Long Edge: Select it if you want to flip pages by the long edge of the paper when printing on both sides of the paper.

○ Flip on Short Edge: Select it if you want to flip pages by the short edge of the paper when printing on both sides of the paper.

    • Pages per Sheet: Helps you specify the order of the pages if you print the document with more than two pages per sheet.

Information on cartridges and the printhead

The following tips help maintain HP cartridges and ensure consistent print quality.

  • The instructions in this guide are for replacing cartridges and are not intended for first-time installation.
  • Keep all cartridges in the original sealed packages until they are needed.
  • Be sure to turn off the printer properly.
  • Store cartridges at room temperature (15-35° C or 59-95° F).
  • Do not clean the printhead unnecessarily. This wastes ink and shortens the life of the cartridges.
  • Handle cartridges carefully. Dropping, jarring, or rough handling during installation can cause temporary printing problems.
  • If you are transporting the printer, do the following to prevent ink leaking from the printer or other damage from occurring to the printer:
  • Make sure you turn off the printer by pressing Graphic - Power icon (the Power button). Wait until all sounds of internal motion stop before unplugging the printer.
  • Make sure you leave the cartridges installed.
  • The printer must be transported sitting flat; it should not be placed on its side, back, front, or top.

Check estimated ink levels

You can check the estimated ink levels from the printer software, printer control panel or HP Smart.

NOTE: If you have enrolled in the HP Instant Ink service, the printer automatically checks the ink levels and orders new ink when necessary. For more information about HP Instant Ink, go to hpinstantink.com.

To check the ink levels from the printer control panel

● The Ink Level icons on the printer display show an estimate of ink remaining in the cartridges.

To check the ink levels from the HP printer software (Windows)

  1. Open the HP printer software. For more information, see Open the HP printer software (Windows).
  2. In the printer software, click the Estimated Levels tab.

To check the ink levels from the HP Smart app

  • Open HP Smart. Check the estimated ink levels at the right side of the printer image.

NOTE:

  • If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.
  • Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not have to replace the cartridges until the print quality is unacceptable.
  • Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the printer and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used. For more information, see www.hp.com/go/inkusage.

Check estimated ink levels

Order ink supplies

Before ordering cartridges, locate the correct cartridge number.

To locate the cartridge number on the printer

  • The cartridge number is located inside the cartridge access door.

HP DeskJet 2700 All-in-One - cartridge number

To locate the cartridge number from the HP Smart app

  • Open HP Smart. On the Home screen, click or tap the printer image, and then click or tap Supported Supplies or Supply Status.

To locate the cartridge number from the printer software (Windows)

  1. Open the HP printer software. For more information, see Open the HP printer software (Windows).
  2. In the printer software, click Shop, click Shop For Supplies Online and then follow the onscreen instructions.

To order original HP supplies for the HP DeskJet 2700 series, go to www.hp.com/buy/supplies . If prompted, choose your country/region, and then follow the prompts to find the right cartridges for your printer.

NOTE: Ordering cartridges online is not supported in all countries/regions. If it is not available in your country/ region, you may still view supplies information and print a list for reference when shopping at a local HP reseller.

HP Instant Ink

Your printer is eligible for the HP Instant Ink replacement service, which can reduce your printing costs and save you time. After you enroll in the service, your printer automatically keeps track of your ink levels and orders more ink for you when the ink is running low. HP ships the new cartridges straight to your door before your ink runs out, so you’ll always have ink on hand when you need it. Additionally, the cartridges that you receive contain more ink than HP XL cartridges, so you’ll need to replace cartridges less frequently. To learn more about how HP Instant Ink can save you time and money, go to hpinstantink.com.

NOTE: HP Instant Ink service is not available in all countries. To check availability, visit hpinstantink.com.

Use single-cartridge mode

Use the single-cartridge mode to operate the printer with only one cartridge. The single-cartridge mode is initiated when one of the following occurs.

  • There is only one cartridge installed in the carriage.
  • A cartridge is removed from the carriage if there are two cartridges installed previously.

NOTE: If the printer enters the single-cartridge mode when two cartridges are installed in the printer, verify that the protective piece of plastic tape has been removed from each cartridge. When the plastic tape covers the cartridge contacts, the printer cannot detect that the cartridge is installed. If there is no plastic tape on the cartridges, try cleaning the cartridge contacts. For information about cleaning cartridge contacts, see Cartridge issues.

To exit the single-cartridge mode

  • Install both the black and tri-color cartridges in the printer.

Cartridge warranty information

The HP cartridge warranty is applicable when the cartridge is used in its designated HP printing device. This warranty does not cover HP cartridges that have been refilled, remanufactured, refurbished, misused, or tampered with.

During the warranty period, the cartridge is covered as long as the HP ink is not depleted and the end of warranty date has not been reached. The end of warranty date, in YYYY/MM/DD format, may be found on the cartridge as indicated:

Tips for working with cartridges

Use the following tips to work with cartridges:

  • To protect the cartridges from drying out, always turn the printer off using the Power button.
  • Do not open or untape cartridges until you are ready to install them. Leaving tape on the cartridges reduces ink evaporation.
  • Insert the cartridges into the correct slots. Match the color of each cartridge to the color of the cartridge latch. Make sure the cartridges snap into place.
  • Align the printer for best print quality. See Printing issues for more information.
  • When the Estimated Cartridge Levels screen in the HP Smart app or the Estimated Levels screen in the printer software shows one or both cartridges in a low state, consider getting replacement cartridges to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable. See Replace cartridges for more information.
  • If you remove a cartridge from the printer for any reason, try to replace it again as soon as possible. If a cartridge is left unprotected outside the printer, its nozzles might dry out and clog up.

Cartridge issues

Identify whether a cartridge has a problem

To identify whether a cartridge has a problem, check the status of the Ink Alert light and the corresponding Ink Level icon. For more information, see Control panel error codes and status.

If you get a cartridge problem message from the printer software or the HP Smart app that states at least one of the cartridges has a problem, do the following to identify whether a cartridge has a problem.

  1. Remove the black cartridge and then close the cartridge access door.
    • If the Ink Level icon for the tri-color cartridge blinks, the tri-color cartridge has a problem.
    • If the Ink Level icon for the tri-color cartridge does not blink, the tri-color cartridge does not have a problem.
  2. Install the black cartridge back in the printer, remove tri-color cartridge, and then close the cartridge access door.
    • If the Ink Level icon for the black cartridge blinks, the black cartridge has a problem.
    • If the Ink Level icon for the black cartridge does not blink, the black cartridge does not have a problem.

Fix cartridge problems

If an error occurs after a cartridge is installed, or if a message indicates a cartridge problem, try removing the cartridges, verifying the protective piece of plastic tape has been removed from each cartridge, and then reinserting the cartridges. If this does not work, clean the cartridge contacts. If the problem is still not resolved, replace the cartridges. For information about replacing cartridges, see Replace cartridges.

To clean cartridge contacts

CAUTION: The cleaning procedure should take only a few minutes. Make sure that the cartridges are reinstalled in the printer as soon as possible.

To improve print quality (Windows)

  1. Make sure you are using original HP cartridges.
  2. Check the paper type.
    For best print quality, use high-quality HP paper, or papers that adhere to the ColorLok® standard. For more information, see Paper basics.
    Always make sure the paper you are printing on is flat. For best results when printing images, use HP Advanced Photo Paper.
    Store specialty paper in its original packaging inside a resealable plastic bag on a flat surface in a cool, dry place. When you are ready to print, remove only the paper you plan to use immediately. When you have finished printing, return any unused photo paper to the plastic bag. This prevents the photo paper from curling.
