How to fit ink cartridges

Back to Cartridge City

Please see opposite for your HP Designjet printer for step-by-step instructions on how to fit an Ink Cartridge.  If you'd like to watch a short video clip about how to install ink cartridges, please refer to our video section 

There are two reasons to replace an ink cartridge, namely:

  • When your ink cartridge is low on ink and you want to replace it with a full cartridge for unattended printing - in this case you simply retain your partially used ink cartridge and then use it at another, more convenient time
  • When  your ink cartridge is empty or faulty and you must replace it in order to continue printing

HP provide the following CAUTION notes:  

  • Do not try to remove an ink cartridge while printing
  • Remove an ink cartridge only if you are ready to insert another one
  •  If your printer is on a stand, make sure the printer wheels are locked (the brake lever is pressed down) to prevent the printer from moving.
