Set up a brand new printer from the box
  1. 1

    Remove all orange tape and locks

    Check inside the cartridge area and behind the rear door. Leftover tape causes instant jam errors.

  2. 2

    Install cartridges or fill tanks

    Push each cartridge until it clicks. On tank models fill to the upper line and run the initial charge.

  3. 3

    Load paper and set the tray

    Set the guides and confirm the paper size on the panel so the driver matches.

  4. 4

    Run the initial alignment

    Let the printer finish its alignment page before printing anything else.

  5. 5

    Connect and add to your devices

    Use the wireless wizard or USB, then add the printer on every computer and phone.
