Many HP all-in-one functions can be accessed directly, without turning on your  
computer. Tasks such as making a copy, sending a fax, or printing photos from a  
memory card can be accomplished quickly and easily from your HP all-in-one. This  
chapter describes the HP all-in-one hardware features, control panel functions, and how  
to access the HP Image Zone software.  
Note The HP Officejet 7300 series and HP Officejet 7400 series all-in-ones have  
slightly different features. Some of the features described in this guide might not  
apply to the model you purchased.  
Tip You can do more with your HP all-in-one by using the HP Image Zone software  
installed on your computer. The software includes enhanced copy, fax, scan, and  
photo functionality, as well as troubleshooting tips and product-specific help. For  
more information, see the onscreen HP Image Zone Help and Use the HP Image

Use the HP Image Zone to do more with your HP all-in-  
one  
The HP Image Zone software is installed on your computer when you set up your  
HP all-in-one. For further information, see the Setup Guide that came with your device.  
Access to the HP Image Zone software differs by operating system (OS). For example,  
if you have a PC and are running Windows, the HP Image Zone software entry point is  
the HP Director. If you have a Macintosh and are running OS X V10.1.5 or later, the  
HP Image Zone software entry point is the HP Image Zone window. Regardless, the  
entry point serves as the launching pad for the HP Image Zone software and services.  
You can quickly and easily expand the functionality of your HP all-in-one by using the  
HP Image Zone software. Look for boxes like this throughout the guide that provide  
topic-specific tips and helpful information for your projects.  
Access the HP Image Zone software (Windows)  
Open the HP Director from the desktop icon, system tray icon, or from the Start menu.  
The HP Image Zone software features appear in the HP Director.  
To open the HP Director

Do one of the following:  
On the Windows desktop, double-click the HP Director icon.  
In the system tray at the far right of the Windows taskbar, double-click the  
Hewlett-Packard Digital Imaging Monitor icon.

device that is selected. If the selected device is not equipped with a particular  
feature or function, then the icon for that feature or function does not display in  
the HP Director.  
Tip If the HP Director on your computer does not contain any icons, an error might  
have occurred during the software installation. To correct this, use the Control  
Panel in Windows to completely uninstall the HP Image Zone software; then  
reinstall the software. For more information, see the Setup Guide that came with  
your HP all-in-one.

or on the glass. Originals that are loaded in the automatic document feeder will  
automatically be fed into the HP all-in-one.  
Load an original in the automatic document feeder  
You can copy, scan, or fax a multiple-page letter-, A4-, or legal-size document (up to 50  
pages) by placing it in the document feeder tray.  
Warning Do not load photos in the automatic document feeder; this might  
cause damage to your photos.  
Note Some features, such as the Fit to Page and Fill Entire Page copy features, do  
not work when you load your originals in the automatic document feeder.  
Additionally, if you are scanning a proof sheet to print photos from a memory  
card, you must load the proof sheet on the glass. For more information, see Load

You can copy, scan, or fax up to letter-, A4-, or legal-size single-page originals by  
loading them on the glass, as described here. If your original contains multiple full-size  
pages, load it in the automatic document feeder. For more information, see Load an  
You should also follow these instructions when loading a proof sheet on the glass for  
photo printing. If your proof sheet contains multiple pages, load each page on the glass

Choose papers for printing and copying  
You can use many types and sizes of paper in your HP all-in-one. Review the following  
recommendations to get the best printing and copying quality. Whenever you change  
paper types or sizes, remember to change those settings.  
Recommended papers  
If you want the best print quality, HP recommends using HP papers that are specifically  
designed for the type of project you are printing. If you are printing photos, for example,

Chapter 5  
load glossy or matte photo paper in the input tray. If you are printing a brochure or  
presentation, use a type of paper specifically designed for that purpose.  
For more information about HP papers, see the onscreen HP Image Zone Help, or go  
Papers to avoid  
Using paper that is too thin, paper that has a slick texture, or paper that stretches easily  
can cause paper jams. Using paper that has a heavy texture or does not accept ink can  
cause printed images to smear, bleed, or not fill in completely.  
We do not recommend printing to the following papers:  
Paper with cutouts or perforations (unless specifically designed for use with  
HP inkjet devices).  
Highly textured stock, such as linen. It may not print evenly, and the ink can bleed  
into these papers.  
Extremely smooth, shiny, or coated papers not specifically designed for your  
HP all-in-one. They can jam the HP all-in-one or repel the ink.  
Multi-part forms (such as duplicate and triplicate forms). They can wrinkle or get  
stuck. The ink is also more likely to smear.  
Envelopes with clasps or windows.  
We do not recommend copying to the following papers:  
Any size paper other than letter, A4, 10 by 15 cm (4 by 6 inch), 5 by 7 inch,  
Hagaki, L, or legal. Depending on your country/region, some of these papers might  
not be available to you.  
Paper with cutouts or perforations (unless specifically designed for use with HP  
inkjet devices).  
Photo paper other than HP Premium Photo Paper or  
HP Premium Plus Photo Paper.  
Envelopes.  
Banner paper.  
Transparency film other than HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film or  
HP Premium Plus Inkjet Transparency Film.  
Multiple-part forms or label stock.  
Load paper  
This section describes the procedure for loading different types and sizes of paper into  
your HP all-in-one for your copies, printouts, or faxes.  
Tip To help prevent rips, wrinkles, and curled or bent edges, store all paper flat in a  
resealable bag. If the paper is not stored properly, extreme changes in  
temperature and humidity might result in curled paper that does not work well in  
the HP all-in-one.  
Load full-size paper  
You can load many types of letter, A4, or legal paper into the main input tray of your  
HP all-in-one.  
Tip If you have the optional HP 250 Sheet Plain Paper Tray installed, you can load an  
additional 250 sheets of plain letter or A4 paper into the lower tray.

Tips  
HP papers  
HP Premium Paper: Locate the gray arrow on the nonprinting side  
of the paper, and then slide the paper into the input tray with the  
arrow side facing up.  
HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film: Insert the film so that the  
white transparency strip (with arrows and the HP logo) is on top and  
is going into the input tray first.  
Note The HP all-in-one might not automatically detect  
transparency film if it is loaded incorrectly, or if you use  
transparency film other than HP transparency film. For best  
results, set the paper type to transparency film before printing  
or copying onto transparency film.  
HP Iron-On Transfers: Flatten the transfer sheet completely before  
using it; do not load curled sheets. (To prevent curling, keep transfer  
sheets sealed in the original package until you are ready to use  
them.) Locate the blue stripe on the nonprinting side of the transfer  
paper and then manually feed one sheet at a time into the input tray  
with the blue stripe facing up.  
HP Matte Greeting Cards, HP Photo Greeting Cards, or  
HP Textured Greeting Cards: Insert a small stack of HP greeting  
card paper into the input tray with the print side down; slide the stack  
of cards forward until it stops.  
Labels  
Always use letter or A4 label sheets designed for use with HP inkjet  
devices (such as Avery inkjet labels), and make sure that the labels are  
not more than two years old.

Slide the paper into the input tray so that the unattached edge is at  
the top of the stack.  
6
Insert the first edge into the input tray until it stops, as shown below.  
Avoid paper jams  
To help avoid paper jams, follow these guidelines:  
Prevent curled or wrinkled paper by storing all unused paper flat in a resealable  
bag.  
Remove printed papers from the output tray frequently.  
Ensure that paper loaded in the input tray lays flat and the edges are not bent or  
torn.  
Do not combine different paper types and paper sizes in the input tray; the entire  
stack of paper in the input tray must be the same size and type.  
Adjust the paper guides in the input tray to fit snugly against all paper. Make sure  
the paper guides do not bend the paper in the input tray.  
Do not force paper too far forward in the input tray.  
Use paper types that are recommended for your HP all-in-one. For more  
Do not leave originals on the glass. If you load an original in the automatic  
document feeder while there is already an original on the glass, the original can jam  
in the automatic document feeder.

Use a memory card or PictBridge  
camera  
6
The HP all-in-one can access the memory cards used in most digital cameras so you  
can print, store, manage, and share your photos. You can insert the memory card into  
the HP all-in-one, or connect your camera directly, letting the HP all-in-one read the  
contents of the memory card while it is still in the camera.  
This chapter contains information on using memory cards or a PictBridge camera with  
your HP all-in-one. Read this section for information on transferring photos to your  
computer, setting photo print options, printing photos, editing photos, viewing slide  
shows, and sharing photos with your family and friends.  
The memory card slots and camera port  
If your digital camera uses a memory card to store photos, you can insert the memory  
card in your HP all-in-one to print or save your photos.  
You can print a proof sheet, which might be several pages long and shows thumbnail  
views of photos stored on the memory card, and print photos from the memory card,  
even if your HP all-in-one is not connected to a computer. You can also connect a  
digital camera that supports PictBridge to the HP all-in-one through the camera port and  
print directly from the camera.  
Your HP all-in-one can read the following memory cards: CompactFlash (I, II), Memory  
Sticks, MultiMediaCard (MMC), Secure Digital, SmartMedia, and xD-Picture Card.  
Note You can scan a document and send the scanned image to an inserted memory  
card. For more information, see Send a scan to a memory card.  
Your HP all-in-one features four slots for memory cards, shown in the following  
illustration, with the memory cards that correspond to each slot.  
User Guide  
39  
   
Chapter 6  
The slots are configured as follows:  
Top left slot: CompactFlash (I, II)  
Top right slot: Secure Digital, MultiMediaCard (MMC)  
Bottom left slot: SmartMedia, xD-Picture Card (fits in top right of the slot)  
Bottom right slot: Memory Stick, Magic Gate Memory Stick, Memory Stick Duo (with  
user-supplied adapter), Memory Stick Pro  
Camera port (below the memory card slots): compatible with any USB-equipped  
digital camera that supports PictBridge  
Note The camera port only supports USB-equipped digital cameras that support  
PictBridge. It does not support other types of USB devices. If you attach a USB  
device that is not a compatible digital camera to the camera port, an error  
message appears on the color graphics display. If you have an older HP-brand  
digital camera, try using the USB cable that came with the camera. Plug it into  
the USB port on the back of the HP all-in-one and not into the camera port near  
the memory card slots.  
Tip By default, Windows XP will format a memory card of 8 MB or less and 64 MB or  
more with the FAT32 format. Digital cameras and other devices use the FAT  
(FAT16 or FAT12) format and cannot operate with a FAT32 formatted card. Either  
format your memory card in your camera or select FAT format to format your  
memory card in a Windows XP PC.  
Control memory card security on a network  
Your HP all-in-one, if networked, lets computers on your network access the contents  
of memory cards. When used on a wireless network that does not have wireless  
encryption enabled, anyone within wireless range who knows your network name and  
the HP all-in-one network ID can access the contents of your memory card while it is  
inserted in the HP all-in-one.  
40  
HP Officejet 7300/7400 series all-in-one  
 
You can increase the privacy of data on your memory cards by establishing a WEP  
(Wired Equivalent Privacy) key or WPA/PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access/Pre-Shared Key) )  
on your wireless network or by setting the HP all-in-one so it never shares an inserted  
memory card with networked computers, wireless or not. This means that other  
computers on your network will also not be able to access the files on the memory  
card.  
For more information on adding encryption to a wireless network, see the Network  
Guide.  
Note The HP all-in-one never shares the contents of a memory card in a digital  
camera that is connected to the HP all-in-one through the camera port.

Transfer digital images to your computer  
After you take photos with your digital camera, you can print them immediately or save  
them directly to your computer. To save them to your computer, you need to remove the  
memory card from the camera and insert it in the appropriate memory card slot on the  
HP all-in-one.  
Note You can only use one memory card in your HP all-in-one at a time.  
1
Insert the memory card into the appropriate slot on your HP all-in-one.  
When the memory card is inserted correctly, the status light next to the memory  
card slots begins to blink. Reading photos... appears on the color graphics  
display. The status light next to the memory card slots blinks green when the card  
is being accessed.  
If you insert a memory card incorrectly, the status light next to the memory card  
slots blinks amber and the color graphics display shows an error message such as  
Card is in backwards or Card is not fully inserted.  
Warning Never attempt to remove a memory card while it is being  
accessed. Doing so can damage files on the card. You can safely remove a  
card only when the status light next to the memory card slots is not blinking.

Chapter 6  
For Windows: by default, files are saved in month and year folders depending on  
when the photos were taken. The folders are created under the C:\Documents and  
Settings\username\My Documents\My Pictures folder in Windows XP and  
Windows 2000.  
For Macintosh: by default, files are saved to the computer at Hard Drive:  
Documents:HP All-in-One Data:Photos folder (OS 9) or Hard Drive:Users:User  
Name:Pictures:HP Photos folder (OS X).  
Tip You can also use the control panel to transfer memory card files to an  
attached computer. In the Photo area, press Menu, and then press 3 to select  
Transfer to computer. Follow the prompts on the computer. In addition, the  
memory card appears as a drive on your computer. You can move the photo  
files from the memory card to the desktop.  
When the HP all-in-one finishes reading the memory card, the status light next to  
the memory card slots stops blinking and stays lit. The first photo on the memory  
card appears on the color graphics display.  
To navigate through the photos on the memory card, press or to move  
backward or forward through the photos, one photo at a time. Press and hold or  
to move rapidly backward or forward through the photos.  
Print photos from a proof sheet  
A proof sheet is a simple and convenient way to select photos and make prints directly  
from a memory card without the need for a computer. A proof sheet, which might be  
several pages long, shows thumbnail views of photos stored on the memory card. The  
file name, index number, and date appear under each thumbnail. Proof sheets are also a  
quick way to create a printed catalog of your photos. In order to print photos using a  
proof sheet, you need to print the proof sheet, complete it, and then scan it.  
Printing photos from a proof sheet is done in three steps: printing a proof sheet,  
completing the proof sheet, and scanning the proof sheet. This section contains detailed  
information on all three steps.  
Tip You can also improve the quality of the photos you print with the HP all-in-one by  
purchasing a photo or gray photo print cartridge. With the tri-color print cartridge  
and photo print cartridge installed, you have a six-ink system, which provides  
enhanced quality color photos. With the tri-color print cartridge and the gray photo  
print cartridge installed, you can print a full range of gray tones, which provides  
enhanced quality black-and-white photos. For more information on the photo print  
cartridge, see Use a photo print cartridge. For more information on the gray photo  
print cartridge, see Use a gray photo print cartridge.

Print a DPOF file  
The Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) is an industry-standard file that can be created  
by some digital cameras. Camera-selected photos are photos you marked for printing  
with your digital camera. When you select photos with your camera, the camera creates a  
DPOF file that identifies which photos have been tagged for printing. Your HP all-in-one  
can read the DPOF file from the memory card so you do not have to reselect the photos  
to print.  
Note Not all digital cameras allow you to tag your photos for printing. See your digital  
camera documentation to see if it supports DPOF. Your HP all-in-one supports  
DPOF file format 1.1.  
When you print camera-selected photos, the HP all-in-one print settings do not apply;  
the settings in the DPOF file for photo layout and number of copies override those of  
your HP all-in-one.  
The DPOF file is stored by the digital camera on a memory card and specifies the  
following information:  
Which photos to print  
The quantity of each photo to print  
Rotation applied to a photo  
Cropping applied to a photo

The HP all-in-one allows you to produce high-quality color and black-and-white copies  
on a variety of paper types, including transparencies. You can enlarge or reduce the  
size of an original to fit a specific paper size, adjust the darkness and color intensity of  
the copy, and use special features to make high-quality copies of photos, including 10  
by 15 cm (4 by 6 inch) borderless copies.  
This chapter provides instructions for increasing copy speed, enhancing copy quality,  
setting the number of copies to print, guidelines for choosing the best paper type and  
size for your job, making posters, and making iron-on transfers.  
Tip For the best copy performance on standard copy projects, set the paper size to  
Letter or A4, the paper type to Plain Paper, and the copy quality to Fast.  
For more information on how to set the paper size, see Set the copy paper size.  
For information on how to set the paper type, see Set the copy paper type.  
For information on setting the copy quality, see Increase copy speed or quality.  
You can learn how to perform photo copy projects, such as making borderless copies  
of photos, enlarging and reducing the copies of photos to suit your preference, making  
multiple copies of photos on a page, and making quality enhancements to copies of  
faded photos.  
Set the copy paper size  
You can set the paper size on your HP all-in-one. The paper size you select should  
match what is loaded in your input tray. The default paper size setting for copying is  
Automatic, which causes the HP all-in-one to detect the size of paper in the input tray.

Increase copy speed or quality  
The HP all-in-one provides three options that affect copy speed and quality.  
Best produces the highest quality for all paper and eliminates the banding  
(striping) effect that sometimes occurs in solid areas. Best copies more slowly than  
the other quality settings.  
Normal delivers high-quality output and is the recommended setting for most of  
your copying. Normal copies faster than Best.  
Fast copies faster than the Normal setting. The text is comparable to the quality of  
the Normal setting, but the graphics might be lower quality. The Fast setting uses  
less ink and extends the life of your print cartridges.

Select an input tray for copying  
If you have one of the supported paper tray accessories installed, you can specify which  
input tray to use for making copies:  
You can load all types of supported paper types and sizes, such as photo paper or  
transparencies, in the main paper tray (Upper Tray).  
You can load up to 250 sheets of plain white full-size paper in the optional 250  
Sheet Plain Paper Tray (Lower Tray).  
You can load small paper such as photo paper or Hagaki cards in the optional  
HP Auto Two-sided Print Accessory with Small Paper Tray (Rear Tray).  
For example, if you copy a lot of photos, you might load the main paper tray with photo  
paper and load the optional lower tray with letter or A4 paper. You could also load the  
optional rear tray with 10 by 15 cm (4 by 6 inch) photo paper and the main input tray  
with full-size paper. Using the optional input trays saves time because you don't have to  
remove and reload paper each time you make copies on different sizes and types of  
paper.  
Note For information on loading paper in an accessory, read and follow the  
instructions that came with the accessory.

Use the scan features  
8
Scanning is the process of converting text and pictures into an electronic format for  
your computer. You can scan just about anything: photos, magazine articles, text  
documents, and even 3D objects, as long as you are careful not to scratch the glass on  
your HP all-in-one. Scanning to a memory card makes your scanned images even more  
portable.  
You can use the scanning features of your HP all-in-one to do the following:  
Scan text from an article into your word processor and quote it in a report.  
Print business cards and brochures by scanning a logo and using it in your  
publishing software.  
Send photos to friends and relatives by scanning your favorite prints and including  
them in e-mail messages.  
Create a photographic inventory of your house or office, or archive treasured  
photos in an electronic scrapbook  
Note Scanning text (also known as optical character recognition or OCR) lets you  
bring the content of magazine articles, books, and other printed matter into your  
favorite word processor (and many other programs) as fully editable text.  
Learning to do OCR right is important if you want to obtain the best results. Do  
not expect scanned text documents to be letter-perfect the first time you use  
your OCR software. Using OCR software is an art that takes time and practice to  
master. For more information about scanning documents, especially documents  
containing both text and graphics, see the documentation that came with your  
OCR software.  
To use the scan features, your HP all-in-one and computer must be connected and  
turned on. The HP all-in-one software must also be installed and running on your  
computer prior to scanning. To verify that the HP all-in-one software is running on a  
Windows PC, look for the HP all-in-one icon in the system tray at the lower right side of  
the screen, near the time. On a Macintosh, the HP all-in-one software is always  
running.  
Note Closing the HP Windows system tray icon can cause your HP all-in-one to lose  
some of its scan functionality and result in the No Connection error message. If  
this happens, you can restore full functionality by restarting your computer or by  
starting the HP Image Zone software.  
For information about how to scan from the computer, and how to adjust, resize, rotate,  
crop, and sharpen your scans, see the onscreen HP Image Zone Help that came with  
your software.  
This chapter contains information on scanning to an application, to an HP Instant Share  
destination, and to a memory card. It also contains information about scanning from the  
HP Director, and adjusting the preview image.

10 Fax setup  
After completing all steps in the Setup Guide, use the instructions in this chapter to  
complete your fax setup. Please keep your Setup Guide for later use.  
In this chapter, you will learn how to set up your HP all-in-one so that faxing works  
successfully with equipment and services you might already have on the same phone  
line as your HP all-in-one.  
Before you begin setting up your HP all-in-one for faxing, determine which kind of phone  
system your country/region uses. The instructions for setting up your HP all-in-one for  
faxing differ depending whether you have a serial or parallel phone system.  
If the connector type on your shared telephone equipment (modems, phones, and  
answering machines) does not allow a physical connection to the "2-EXT" port on  
your HP all-in-one and instead must be connected at the telephone wall jack, you  
probably have a serial-type telephone system. Check the table below to make sure  
that your country/region does not appear in this list. If you are unsure which kind of  
telephone system you have (serial or parallel), check with your telephone  
company. This type of phone system uses a 4-wire phone cord to connect the  
HP all-in-one to the telephone wall jack.  
If your country/region is listed in the table, you probably have a parallel-type  
telephone system. This type of phone system uses a 2-wire phone cord to connect  
the HP all-in-one to the telephone wall jack.

Tip You can also check the end of the phone cord that came in the box with your  
HP all-in-one. If the phone cord appears to have two wires, you have a 2- wire  
phone cord. If the phone cord has four wires, you have a 4-wire phone cord. The  
graphic below shows the differences between the phone cords.

Choose the right fax setup for your home or office  
To fax successfully, you need to know what types of equipment and services (if any)  
share the same phone line with your HP all-in-one. This is important because you might  
need to connect some of your existing office equipment directly to your HP all-in-one,  
and you might also need to change some fax settings before you can fax successfully.  
To determine the best way to set up the HP all-in-one in your home or office, first read  
through the questions in this section and record your answers. Next, refer to the table in  
the following section and choose the recommended setup case based on your  
answers.  
Make sure to read and answer the following questions in the order they are presented.  
1
Do you have a digital subscriber line (DSL) service through your telephone  
company?  
Yes, I have DSL.  
No.  
If you answered Yes, proceed directly to Case B: Set up your HP all-in-one with  
DSL. You do not need to continue answering questions.  
If you answered No, please continue answering questions.  
Do you have a private branch exchange (PBX) phone system or an integrated  
services digital network (ISDN) system?  
If you answered Yes, proceed directly to Case C: Set up your HP all-in-one with a  
PBX phone system or an ISDN line. You do not need to continue answering  
questions.  
If you answered No, please continue answering questions.  
Do you subscribe to a distinctive ring service through your telephone company that  
provides multiple phone numbers with different ring patterns?

3
Yes, I have distinctive ring.  
No.  
If you answered Yes, proceed directly to Case D: Fax with a distinctive ring service  
on the same line. You do not need to continue answering questions.  
If you answered No, please continue answering questions.  
Are you unsure if you have distinctive ring? Many phone companies offer a  
distinctive ring feature that allows you to have several phone numbers on one  
phone line.  
When you subscribe to this service, each phone number will have a different ring  
pattern. For example, you can have single, double, and triple rings for the different  
numbers. You might assign one phone number with a single ring to your voice  
calls, and another phone number with double rings to your fax calls. This allows  
you to tell the difference between voice and fax calls when the phone rings.

Now that you have answered all of the questions about the equipment and services  
that share the phone line with your HP all-in-one, you are ready to choose the best  
setup case for your home or office.  
From the first column in the following table, choose the combination of equipment and  
services applicable to your home or office setting. Then look up the appropriate setup  
case in the second or third column based on your phone system. Step-by-step  
instructions are included for each case later in this chapter.  
If you have answered all of the questions in the previous section and have none of the  
described equipment or services, choose "None" from the first column in the table.  
Note If your home or office setup is not described in this chapter, set up the HP all-in-  
one as you would a regular analog phone. Make sure you use the phone cord  
supplied in the box to connect one end to your telephone wall jack and the other  
end to the port labeled "1-LINE" on the back of your HP all-in-one. If you use  
another phone cord, you might experience problems sending and receiving  
faxes.

Case B: Set up your HP all-in-one with DSL  
If you have a DSL service through your telephone company, use the instructions in this  
section to connect a DSL filter between the telephone wall jack and your HP all-in-one.  
The DSL filter removes the digital signal that can interfere with your HP all-in-one from  
communicating properly with the phone line. (DSL might be called ADSL in your  
country/region.)  
Caution If you have a DSL line and you do not connect the DSL filter, you will  
not be able to send and receive faxes with your HP all-in-one.

Case C: Set up your HP all-in-one with a PBX phone system  
or an ISDN line  
If you are using either a PBX phone system or an ISDN converter/terminal adapter,  
make sure you do the following:  
If you are using either a PBX or an ISDN converter/terminal adaptor, connect the  
HP all-in-one to the port that is designated for fax and phone use. Also, make sure  
that the terminal adapter is set to the correct switch type for your country/region, if  
possible.  
User Guide

Chapter 10  
Note Some ISDN systems allow you to configure the ports for specific phone  
equipment. For example, you might have assigned one port for telephone  
and Group 3 fax and another port for multiple purposes. If you have  
problems when connected to the fax/phone port of your ISDN converter, try  
using the port designated for multiple purposes; it might be labeled "multi-  
combi" or something similar.  
If you are using a PBX phone system, set the call waiting tone to "off."  
Caution Many digital PBX systems include a call-waiting tone that is  
factory-set to "on." The call waiting tone will interfere with any fax  
transmission, and you will not be able to send or receive faxes with your  
HP all-in-one. Refer to the documentation that came with your PBX phone  
system for instructions on how to turn off the call-waiting tone.  
If you are using a PBX phone system, dial the number for an outside line before  
dialing the fax number.  
Make sure you use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to  
your HP all-in-one, you might not be able to fax successfully. This special phone

Do one of the following, depending on your phone system:  
If you have a parallel-type phone system, remove the white plug from the port  
labeled "2-EXT" on the back of your HP all-in-one, and then connect a phone  
to this port.  
If you have a serial-type phone system, you might plug your phone directly to  
the telephone wall jack.  
Now you need to decide how you want the HP all-in-one to answer calls,  
automatically or manually:  
If you set up the HP all-in-one to answer calls automatically, it answers all  
incoming calls and receives faxes. Your HP all-in-one will not be able to  
distinguish between fax and voice calls in this case; if you suspect the call is a  
voice call, you will need to answer it before the HP all-in-one answers the call.  
To answer fax calls automatically, press the Auto Answer button until the  
light is on.  
If you set up the HP all-in-one to answer faxes manually, you must be available  
to respond in person to incoming fax calls or your HP all-in-one cannot receive  
faxes.  
To answer fax calls manually, press the Auto Answer button until the light is

subscribe to a voice mail service through your telephone company, connect your  
HP all-in-one as described in this section.  
Note You cannot receive faxes automatically if you have a voice mail service at the  
same phone number you use for fax calls. You must receive faxes manually; this  
means you must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls. If you  
want to receive faxes automatically instead, contact your telephone company to

received)  
If you have a fax line on which you receive no voice calls, and you also have a PC  
modem connected on this line, connect your HP all-in-one as described in this section.  
Since your PC modem shares the phone line with your HP all-in-one, you will not be  
able to use both your PC modem and your HP all-in-one simultaneously. For example,  
you cannot use your HP all-in-one for faxing if you are using your PC modem to send an

There are two different ways to set up your HP all-in-one with your computer based on  
the number of phone ports on your computer. Before you begin, check your computer to  
see if it has one or two phone ports:  
If your computer has only one phone port, see the next section, Set up your  
HP all-in-one to a computer with one phone port. You will need to purchase a  
parallel splitter in order to send and receive faxes successfully and use your PC  
modem. (Do not use a 2-line phone splitter or a serial splitter.) You will also need  
three additional phone cords. You can purchase a parallel splitter and additional  
phone cords from an electronics store that carries phone accessories.  
If your computer has two phone ports, see Set up your HP all-in-one to a computer

To set up your HP all-in-one to a computer with two phone ports  
1
Remove the white plug from the port labeled "2-EXT" on the back of your HP all-  
in-one.  
2
Find the phone cord that connects from the back of your computer (your PC  
modem) to a telephone wall jack. Disconnect the cord from the telephone wall jack  
and plug it into the port labeled "2-EXT" on the back of your HP all-in-one.  
Unplug your answering machine from the telephone wall jack, and connect it to the  
"OUT" port on the back of your PC modem.  
3
This allows a direct connection between the HP all-in-one and your answering  
machine, even though the PC modem is connected first in line.  
Note If you do not connect your answering machine in this way, fax tones from a  
sending fax machine might be recorded on your answering machine, and  
you might not be able to receive faxes with your HP all-in-one.  
4
Using the phone cord supplied in the box with your HP all-in-one, connect one end  
to your telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port labeled "1-LINE"  
on the back of your HP all-in-one.  
Caution If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone  
wall jack to your HP all-in-one, you might not be able to fax successfully.  
This special phone cord is different from the phone cords you might already  
have in your home or office. If the supplied phone cord is too short, see The  
information on extending it.

(Optional) If your answering machine does not have a built-in phone, for  
convenience you might want to connect a phone to the back of your answering  
machine at the "OUT" port.  
If your PC modem software is set to receive faxes to your computer automatically,  
turn off that setting.  
Caution If you do not turn off the auto fax receive setting in your PC  
modem software, your HP all-in-one will not be able to receive faxes.

Set up the HP all-in-one to answer incoming calls automatically. Press the Auto  
Answer button until the light is on.

9
Set your answering machine to answer after four or fewer rings.  
Change the Rings to Answer setting on your HP all-in-one to six rings.  
For information on changing this setting, see Set the number of rings before  
10 Run a fax test. For information, see Test your fax setup.  
When the phone rings, your answering machine will answer after the number of rings  
you have set, and then play your recorded greeting. The HP all-in-one monitors the call  
during this time, "listening" for fax tones. If incoming fax tones are detected, the HP all-  
in-one will emit fax reception tones and receive the fax; if there are no fax tones, the  
HP all-in-one stops monitoring the line and your answering machine can record a voice  
message.  
Case K: Shared voice/fax line with PC modem and voice  
mail  
If you receive both voice calls and fax calls at the same phone number, use a PC  
modem on the same phone line, and subscribe to a voice mail service through your  
telephone company, connect your HP all-in-one as described in this section.  
Note You cannot receive faxes automatically if you have a voice mail service at the  
same phone number you use for fax calls. You must receive faxes manually; this  
means you must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls. If you  
want to receive faxes automatically instead, contact your telephone company to  
subscribe to a distinctive ring service, or to obtain a separate phone line for  
faxing.  
Since your PC modem shares the phone line with your HP all-in-one, you will not be  
able to use both your PC modem and your HP all-in-one simultaneously. For example,  
you cannot use your HP all-in-one for faxing if you are using your PC modem to send an  
e-mail or access the Internet.  
There are two different ways to set up your HP all-in-one with your computer based on  
the number of phone ports on your computer. Before you begin, check your computer to  
see if it has one or two phone ports:  
If your computer has only one phone port, see the next section, Set up your  
HP all-in-one to a computer with one phone port. You will need to purchase a  
parallel splitter in order to send and receive faxes successfully and use your PC  
modem. (Do not use a 2-line phone splitter or a serial splitter.) You will also need  
96

three additional phone cords. You can purchase a parallel splitter and additional  
phone cords from an electronics store.  
If your computer has two phone ports, see Set up your HP all-in-one to a computer  
Set up your HP all-in-one to a computer with one phone port

11 Use the fax features  
You can use your HP all-in-one to send and receive faxes, including color faxes. You  
can set up speed dials to send faxes quickly and easily to frequently used numbers.  
From the control panel, you can also set a number of fax options, such as resolution.  
You should explore the HP Director that came with your HP Image Zone software to  
take full advantage of all of its features. Using the HP Director, you can send a fax from  
your computer, include a computer-generated cover page, and quickly set up speed  
dials. For more information, see the onscreen HP Image Zone Help.  
For information on accessing the HP Director and the onscreen help, see Use the  
Set up the HP all-in-one to receive faxes  
Your HP all-in-one can be set up to receive faxes automatically or manually, depending  
on your home or office setup. If you set up the HP all-in-one to answer faxes  
automatically, it answers all incoming calls and receives faxes. If you set up the HP all-  
in-one to answer faxes manually, you must be available to respond in person to the  
incoming fax call, or your HP all-in-one cannot receive faxes. For more information on  
receiving faxes manually, see Receive a fax manually.  
In certain situations you might want to receive faxes manually. For example, if you  
share a phone line between your HP all-in-one and phone and you do not have  
distinctive ringing or an answering machine, you will need to set up the HP all-in-one to  
answer fax calls manually. If you subscribe to a voice mail service, you will also need to  
answer fax calls manually. This is because the HP all-in-one will not be able to  
distinguish between fax calls and phone calls.  
Note For more information on setting up your office equipment with the HP all-in-one,  
see Fax setup.  
Choose the recommended answer mode for your setup  
Refer to the table below to determine the recommended answer mode for your HP all-  
in-one based on your home or office setup. From the first column in the table, choose  
the type of equipment and services applicable to your office setup. Then, look up the

HP all-in-one automatically answers incoming calls and receive faxes. If the light is off,  
you need to receive faxes manually. For more information on the answer mode, see  
Tip You can set up the HP all-in-one to print received faxes on both sides of the page  
to save paper. For information, see Set up the HP all-in-one to print single- or  
Note If you have installed a photo or gray photo print cartridge for printing photos, you  
might want to replace it with the black print cartridge when receiving faxes. See  
Set the number of rings before answering  
You can specify how many rings should occur before your HP all-in-one automatically  
answers the incoming call.  
Note This setting only applies if your HP all-in-one is set to receive faxes  
automatically.  
The Rings to Answer setting is important if you have an answering machine on the  
same phone line as your HP all-in-one. The answering machine must answer the call  
before your HP all-in-one. The number of rings to answer for the HP all-in-one should  
be greater than the number of rings to answer for the answering machine.  
For example, set your answering machine to answer in 4 rings and your HP all-in-one to  
answer in the maximum number of rings supported by your device. (The maximum  
number of rings varies by country/region.) In this setup, the answering machine will  
answer the call and the HP all-in-one will monitor the line. If the HP all-in-one detects  
fax tones, the HP all-in-one will receive the fax. If the call is a voice call, the answering  
machine will record the incoming message.

Poll to receive a fax  
Polling allows your HP all-in-one to ask another fax machine to send a fax that it has in  
its queue. When you use the Poll to Receive feature, the HP all-in-one calls the  
designated fax machine and requests the fax from it. The designated fax machine must  
be set for polling and have a fax ready to send.  
Note The HP all-in-one does not support polling pass codes. This is a security feature  
that requires the receiving fax machine (your HP all-in-one) to provide a pass  
code to the device it is polling in order to receive the fax. Make sure the device  
you are polling does not have a pass code set up (or changed the default pass  
code) or the HP all-in-one will not be able to receive the fax.

For example, if you print a lot of photos, you might load the main paper tray with photo  
paper and load the optional lower tray with letter or A4 paper. Using the optional input  
trays saves you time because you don't have to remove and reload paper each time  
you switch print jobs.

Change the answer ring pattern (distinctive ringing)  
Many phone companies offer a distinctive ringing feature that allows you to have  
several phone numbers on one phone line. When you subscribe to this service, each  
number will have a different ring pattern. For example, you can have single, double, and  
triple rings for the different numbers. You can set up your HP all-in-one to answer  
incoming calls that have a specific ring pattern.  
If you connect your HP all-in-one to a line with distinctive ringing, have your telephone  
company assign one ring pattern to voice calls and another ring pattern to fax calls. We  
recommend that you request double or triple rings for a fax number. When the HP all-  
in-one detects the specified ring pattern, it will answer the call and receive the fax.  
For example, you might have your telephone company assign double rings to your fax  
number and a single ring to your voice number. In this setup, set the Answer Ring  
Pattern for your HP all-in-one to Double Rings. You can also set the Rings to Answer  
setting to 3. When a call comes in with a double ring, the HP all-in-one answers it after  
three rings and receives the fax.  
If you do not have this service, use the default ring pattern, which is All Rings.  
To change the answer ring pattern from the control panel

information, see Set the answer mode.

Set automatic reduction for incoming faxes  
This setting determines what your HP all-in-one does if it receives a fax that is too large  
for the default paper size. With this setting turned on (the default), the image of the  
incoming fax is reduced so that it fits on one page, if possible. With this feature turned  
off, information that does not fit on the first page is printed on a second page.  
Automatic Reduction is useful when you receive a legal-size fax and letter-size paper  
is loaded in the input tray.

Set backup fax reception  
The HP all-in-one stores all received faxes in memory. If there is an error condition that  
prevents the HP all-in-one from printing the faxes, Backup Fax Reception allows you  
to continue receiving faxes. During the error condition, with Backup Fax Reception  
enabled, the faxes are stored in memory.  
For example, if the HP all-in-one is out of paper and Backup Fax Reception is  
enabled, all received faxes are stored in memory. After you load more paper, you can  
print the faxes. If you disable this feature, the HP all-in-one will not answer incoming fax  
calls until the error condition is resolved.  
During normal operation (whether Backup Fax Reception is On or Off), the HP all-in-  
one stores all faxes in memory. After the memory becomes full, the HP all-in-one  
overwrites the oldest, printed faxes as it receives new faxes. If you want to delete all the  
faxes in memory, turn off the HP all-in-one by pressing the On button.

Note If Backup Fax Reception is On and there is an error condition, the HP all-in-one  
stores the faxes it receives in memory as "unprinted." All unprinted faxes remain  
in memory until they are printed or deleted. When the memory becomes full of  
unprinted faxes, the HP all-in-one will not receive any more fax calls until the  
unprinted faxes are printed or deleted from memory. For information on printing  
or deleting faxes from memory, see Reprint or delete the faxes in memory.

Use error correction mode  
Error Correction Mode (ECM) eliminates data that is lost due to poor phone lines by  
detecting errors that occur during transmission and automatically requesting  
retransmission of the erroneous portion. Phone charges are unaffected, or might even  
be reduced, on good phone lines. On poor phone lines, ECM increases sending time  
and phone charges, but sends the data much more reliably. The default setting is on.  
Turn ECM off only if it increases phone charges substantially, and you can accept  
poorer quality in exchange for reduced charges.  
The following rules apply to ECM:  
If you turn ECM off, this applies only to faxes that you send. This does not apply to  
faxes that you receive.  
If you turn ECM off, set the Fax Speed to Medium. If the Fax Speed is set to Fast,  
the fax will automatically be sent with ECM on. For information on changing the Fax  
Speed, see Set the fax speed.  
If you send a fax in color, the fax will be sent with ECM on, regardless of the option  
currently set.

Reprint or delete the faxes in memory  
You can reprint or delete the faxes stored in memory. You might need to reprint a fax in  
memory if your HP all-in-one runs out of paper while receiving a fax. Or, if the memory  
of the HP all-in-one becomes full, you might need to clear it in order to continue  
receiving faxes.  
Note The HP all-in-one stores all faxes it receives in memory, even when the faxes are  
printed. This allows you to reprint the faxes later, if needed. After the memory  
becomes full, the HP all-in-one overwrites the oldest, printed faxes as it receives  
new faxes.

Fax over the Internet  
You may subscribe to a low cost phone service that allows you to send and receive  
faxes with your HP all-in-one by using the Internet. This method is called Fax over  
Internet Protocol (FoIP). You probably use a FoIP service (provided by your telephone  
company) if you:  
Dial a special access code along with the fax number, or  
Have an IP converter box that connects to the Internet and provides analog phone  
ports for the fax connection.  
Note You can only send and receive faxes by connecting a phone cord to the port  
labeled "1-LINE" on the HP all-in-one and not from the Ethernet port. This means  
that your connection to the Internet must be done either through a converter box  
(which supplies regular analog phone jacks for fax connections) or your  
telephone company.  
Some Internet faxing services do not work properly when the HP all-in-one is sending  
and receiving faxes at high speed (33600bps). If you experience problems sending and  
receiving faxes while using an Internet fax service, use a slower fax speed. You can do  
this by changing the Fax Speed setting from High (the default) to Medium. For  
information on changing this setting, see Set the fax speed.  
You should also check with your telephone company to make sure their Internet faxing  
service supports faxing.  
Stop faxing  
You can cancel a fax you are sending or receiving at any time.  
To stop faxing from the control panel  
Press Cancel on the control panel to stop a fax you are sending or receiving. Look  
for the Fax Cancelled message on the color graphics display. If it does not  
appear, press Cancel again.  
The HP all-in-one prints any pages it has already started printing and then cancels  
the remainder of the fax. This can take a few moments.  
To cancel a number you are dialing  
Press Cancel to cancel a number you are currently dialing.

12 Use HP Instant Share (USB)  
HP Instant Share makes it easy to share photos with family and friends. Just scan a  
photo or insert a memory card into the appropriate card slot on your HP all-in-one,  
select one or more photos to share, select a destination for your photos, and then send  
the photos on their way. You can even upload your photos to an online photo album or  
an online photo finishing service. Availability of services varies by country/region.  
With HP Instant Share E-mail, family and friends always get photos they can view -- no  
more large downloads or images that are too big to open. An e-mail message with  
thumbnail images of your photos is sent with a link to a secure Web page where family  
and friends can easily view, share, print, and save the photos.  
Note If your HP all-in-one is connected to a network and is set up with HP Instant  
Share, use the information contained in Use HP Instant Share (networked). The  
information contained in this chapter only pertains to a device that is connected  
to a computer with a USB cable and has not been previously connected to a  
network or set up with HP Instant Share.  
Overview  
If your HP all-in-one is USB-connected, you can share photos with friends and relatives  
using your device and the HP software installed on your computer. If you have a  
Windows-based computer, use the HP Image Zone software; if you have a Macintosh,  
use the HP Instant Share client application software.  
Note A USB-connected device is an HP All-in-One that is connected to a computer by  
means of a USB cable and relies on the computer for access to the Internet.  
Use HP Instant Share to send images from your HP all-in-one to a destination of your  
choice. The destination, for example, can be an e-mail address, an online photo album,  
or an online photo finishing service. Availability of services varies by country/region.  
Note You can also send images to a friend or relative's network-connected HP All-in-  
One or photo printer. To send to a device, you must have an HP Passport user ID  
and password. The receiving device must be set up and registered with  
HP Instant Share. You will also need to obtain the name the recipient assigned to  
the receiving device. Further instructions are provided in step 5 in Send images

does not rely on your computer for an Internet connection), you have full access to the  
HP Instant Share features offered through your device. These features include the  
ability to send and receive images, as well as remote print to your HP all-in-one. A  
description of each feature follows.  
Note Images can be photos or scanned text. Either can be shared with friends and  
relatives using your HP all-in-one and HP Instant Share.  
HP Instant Share Send  
HP Instant Share Send lets you send images from your HP all-in-one to a destination of  
your choice by means of the HP Instant Share service. (You can also send images from  
the HP Image Zone software installed on your computer.) The destination you set up  
can be an e-mail address, a friend or relative's network-connected device, an online  
photo album, or an online photo finishing service. Availability of services varies by  
country/region. For more information, see Send images directly from your HP all-in-one.  
Note A network-connected device is an HP All-in-One that offers HP Instant Share and  
accesses the Internet through a home network or other configuration that does  
not require a computer for access. If a device is network-connected and  
connected to a computer through a USB cable, the network connection has  
preeminence.

HP Instant Share Receive  
HP Instant Share Receive lets you receive images from any friend or relative who has  
accessed the HP Instant Share service and obtained an HP Passport user ID and  
password.  
Receive images from any sender or a specified group of senders  
You can receive images from any sender with an HP Passport account (Open mode) or a  
specified group of senders (Private mode).  
If you choose to receive from any sender, simply provide the name of your HP all-  
in-one to those senders from whom you want to receive images. You assign a  
name to your device when you set up your HP all-in-one with HP Instant Share.  
The device name is not case sensitive.  
Open mode (receive from any sender) is the default receive mode. For more  
information on receiving in Open mode, see Receive from any sender (Open  
mode).  
You can also choose to block specific individuals from sending to your HP all-in-  
one through the HP Instant Share access list. For more information on using the  
access list, see the HP Instant Share service onscreen Help.  
If you choose to receive from a specified group of senders, add each sender from  
whom you wish to receive images to the HP Instant Share access list; then assign  
each sender access privileges. For more information on assigning access  
privileges, see the HP Instant Share service onscreen Help.  
Preview or automatically print received images  
HP Instant Share gives you the option to preview an image collection prior to printing or  
allow collections to print automatically to your HP all-in-one. Auto print privileges are  
enabled on a sender by sender basis from the HP Instant Share access list.  
Only image collections from those senders to whom you assign auto print privileges will  
automatically print to your device. All other collections will be received in preview mode.  
Note For more information on HP Instant Share Receive, see Receive images.

HP remote printing  
HP remote printing lets you print from a Windows application to a network-connected  
device in a separate location. For example, you can use the HP remote printer driver to  
print from your laptop at a coffee shop to your HP all-in-one at home. You can also print  
to your device while working from home over a virtual private network (VPN). For more  
information, see Remote print documents.  
Further, a friend or relative who does not have a network-connected device can  
download the remote printer driver to his computer and print to your HP all-in-one (after  
you have provided him with the name of your device). For more information, see  
Get started

Print received images  
The HP Instant Share service receives image collections sent to your device and  
indicates (by collection) the access privileges assigned to the sender. Your HP all-in-  
one checks the HP Instant Share service for received images in one of two ways:  
If your HP all-in-one is network-connected and has been set up with HP Instant  
Share, it will automatically check the HP Instant Share service at a set interval (for  
example, every 20 minutes) for new image collections. This process is called auto  
checking and is enabled by default on your device.  
If your HP all-in-one detects that a collection has been received at the HP Instant  
Share service, an icon appears on the color graphics display to let you know that  
one or more collections have been received. If a received collection is from an  
allowed sender with auto print privileges, it automatically prints from your device. If a  
received collection is from an allowed sender without auto print privileges,  
information about the collection is displayed in the Received collections list in the  
HP all-in-one.  
If auto checking is not enabled, or if you want to check to see if you have received a  
collection between auto check intervals, press HP Instant Share and select  
Receive from the HP Instant Share menu. Selecting Receive triggers your  
HP all-in-one to check for new image collections and download the information to  
your device's Received collection list.  
If a received collection is from an allowed sender with auto print privileges, you will  
be prompted either to Print Now or Print Later. If you select Print Now, the  
images in the collection are printed. If you select Print Later, information about the  
collection is displayed in the Received collections list.  
The following sections describe how to print received images, set print size and related  
print options, and cancel print jobs.  
Automatically print received images  
A collection of images received from an allowed sender with auto print privileges will  
automatically print to your HP all-in-one if auto checking is enabled on your device.

Set print options  
Images scanned by an HP All-in-One are forwarded to a receiving device with a specific  
print size. Similarly, images and documents forwarded by the HP remote printer driver  
are received with a defined print size. When a document, or collection of images, is  
received with a defined print size, the items are printed according to the following rules:  
If the collection or document is set to auto print, the HP all-in-one uses the print  
size specified.  
If the collection or document is previewed before printing, the HP all-in-one uses  
options defined in the Print Options menu (either the defaults or what the user has  
selected).  
If the collection or document is printed without previewing, the HP all-in-one uses  
the print size specified.  
Images sent from a camera or memory card are forwarded to a receiving device  
without print information. When an image, or collection of images, is received without  
print information, the items are printed according to the following rules:  
If the image or collection is set to auto print, the HP all-in-one uses the remote print  
options defined in the Instant Share Options menu.  
If the image or collection is previewed before printing, the HP all-in-one uses  
options defined in the Print Options menu (either the defaults or what the user has  
selected).  
If the image or collection is printed without previewing, the HP all-in-one uses the  
remote print options defined in the Instant Share Options menu.

Remote print documents  
The HP remote printer driver lets you send print jobs from Windows applications to  
remote, network-connected printing devices. For example, you can remote print from  
your laptop (or other PC) to your HP all-in-one, access your computer at work through a  
VPN and print to your device, or send a print job from any other remote network-  
connected device to your HP All-in-One. Each unit sending a print job must have the HP  
remote printer driver installed on it.  
The HP remote printer driver is installed on the computer (or laptop) on which you  
installed the software for your device. If you want to install the HP remote printer driver  
on another laptop, install the device software or download the driver from the HP  
website.  
Note To download the HP remote printer driver from the HP website, make sure you

15 Maintain your HP all-in-one  
The HP all-in-one requires little maintenance. Sometimes you might want to clean the  
glass and lid backing to remove surface dust and ensure that your copies and scans  
remain clear. You will also need to replace, align, or clean your print cartridges  
occasionally. This chapter provides instructions for keeping your HP all-in-one in top  
working condition. Perform these simple maintenance procedures as necessary.  
Clean the HP all-in-one  
Fingerprints, smudges, hair, and other debris on the glass or lid backing slow down  
performance and affect the accuracy of special features such as Fit to Page. To ensure  
that your copies and scans remain clear, you might need to clean the glass and lid  
backing. You might also want to dust the exterior.  
Clean the glass  
Dirty glass from fingerprints, smudges, hair, and dust slows down performance and  
affects the accuracy of features such as Fit to Page.  
1
Turn off the HP all-in-one, unplug the power cord, and raise the lid.  
Note When you unplug the power cord, the date and time are erased. You will  
need to reset the date and time later, when you plug the power cord back  
in. Any faxes stored in memory are also erased.  
2
Clean the glass with a soft cloth or sponge slightly moistened with a nonabrasive  
glass cleaner.  
Warning Do not use abrasives, acetone, benzene, or carbon tetrachloride  
on the glass; they can damage it. Do not place or spray liquid directly on the  
glass; the liquid might seep under the glass and damage the device.  
3
Dry the glass with a chamois or cellulose sponge to prevent spotting.  
Note Make sure you clean the small glass strip to the left of the main glass  
surface. This strip is for processing jobs from the automatic document  
feeder. Streaks can occur if the glass strip is dirty.

HP Officejet 7300/7400 series all-in-one  
       
Clean the lid backing  
Minor debris can accumulate on the white document backing located underneath the lid  
of the HP all-in-one.

2
Turn off the HP all-in-one, unplug the power cord, and raise the lid.  
Clean the white document backing with a soft cloth or sponge slightly moistened  
with a mild soap and warm water.  
3
4
Wash the backing gently to loosen debris. Do not scrub the backing.  
Dry the backing with a chamois or soft cloth.  
Warning Do not use paper-based wipes, as these might scratch the  
backing.  
5
If further cleaning is needed, repeat the previous steps using isopropyl (rubbing)  
alcohol, and wipe the backing thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any residual  
alcohol.  
Warning Be careful not to spill alcohol on the glass or painted parts of the  
HP all-in-one, as this might damage the device.  
Clean the exterior  
Use a soft cloth or slightly moistened sponge to wipe dust, smudges, and stains off the  
case. The interior of the HP all-in-one does not require cleaning. Keep fluids away from  
the control panel and the interior of the HP all-in-one.  
Warning To avoid damage to painted parts of the HP all-in-one, do not use  
alcohol or alcohol-based cleaning products on the control panel, document  
feeder tray, lid, or other painted parts of the device.  
Check the estimated ink levels  
You can easily check the ink supply level to determine how soon you might need to  
replace a print cartridge. The ink supply level shows an estimate of the amount of ink  
remaining in the print cartridges.  
To check the ink levels from the control panel  
Look for two icons at the bottom of the color graphics display that represent the  
levels of ink remaining in the two installed print cartridges.  
A green icon represents an estimate of the amount of ink remaining in the tri-  
color print cartridge.  
A black icon represents an estimate of the amount of ink remaining in the black  
print cartridge.  
An orange icon represents an estimate of the amount of ink remaining in the  
photo print cartridge.  
A blue-gray icon represents an estimate of the amount of ink remaining in the  
gray photo print cartridge.  
If you are using non-HP print cartridges or cartridges that have been refilled, or if  
there is no print cartridge installed in one of the cartridge stalls, one or both icons  
might not appear in the icon bar. The HP all-in-one cannot detect the amount of ink  
remaining in non-HP print cartridges or cartridges that have been refilled.  
User Guide  
153  
         
Chapter 15  
If an icon shows a hollow ink drop, the print cartridge represented by that color icon  
has very little ink remaining and will need to be changed soon. Replace the print  
cartridge when the print quality starts to degrade.  
For more information on the ink level icons on the color graphics display, see Color  
You can also check the estimated amount of ink remaining in your print cartridges from  
the computer. If you have a USB connection between your computer and the HP all-in-  
one, see the onscreen HP Image Zone Help for information on checking the ink levels  
from the Printer Toolbox. If you have a network connection, you can check the ink  
levels from the Embedded Web Server (EWS). See the Network Guide for information  
on accessing the EWS.  
Print a self-test report  
If you are experiencing problems with printing, print a self-test report before you replace  
the print cartridges. This report provides useful information on several aspects of your  
device, including your print cartridges.

Make sure the test patterns are even and show a complete grid.  
If more than a few lines in a pattern are broken, this might indicate a problem with  
the nozzles. You might need to clean the print cartridges. For more information, see  
Make sure the lines of color extend across the page.  
If the black line is missing, faded, streaked, or shows lines, this might indicate a  
problem with the black or photo print cartridge in the right slot.  
154  
HP Officejet 7300/7400 series all-in-one  
   
If any of the remaining three lines are missing, faded, streaked, or show lines, this  
might indicate a problem with the tri-color print cartridge in the left slot.  
Make sure the color blocks have even consistency and are representative of the  
colors listed below.  
6
You should see cyan, magenta, yellow, violet, green, and red color blocks.  
If color blocks are missing, or if a block of color is muddy or does not match the  
label indicated below the block, this might indicate that the tri-color print cartridge is  
out of ink. You might need to replace the print cartridge. For more information on  
replacing print cartridges, see Replace the print cartridges.  
Note For examples of test patterns, lines of color, and color blocks from normal and  
malfunctioning print cartridges, see the onscreen HP Image Zone Help that  
came with your software.

Use the print cartridge protector  
In some countries/regions, when you purchase a photo print cartridge, you might also  
receive a print cartridge protector. In other countries/regions, a print cartridge protector  
comes in the box with your HP all-in-one. If neither your print cartridge nor your HP all-  
in-one came with a print cartridge protector, you can order one from HP Support. Go to  
The print cartridge protector is designed to keep a print cartridge secure and prevent it  
from drying out when it is not being used. Whenever you remove a print cartridge from  
the HP all-in-one with the intention of using it again later, store it in the print cartridge  
protector. For example, store the black print cartridge in a print cartridge protector if you  
are removing it so you can print high-quality photos with the photo and tri-color print  
cartridges.  
To insert a print cartridge into the print cartridge protector  
Slide the print cartridge into the print cartridge protector at a slight angle and snap  
it securely into place.  
To remove the print cartridge from the print cartridge protector  
Press down and back on the top of the print cartridge protector to release the print  
cartridge, then slide the print cartridge out of the print cartridge protector.

Align the print cartridges  
The HP all-in-one prompts you to align cartridges every time you install or replace a  
print cartridge. You can also align the print cartridges at any time from the control panel  
or by using the HP Image Zone software on your computer. Aligning the print cartridges  
ensures high-quality output.  
Note If you remove and reinstall the same print cartridge, the HP all-in-one will not  
prompt you to align the print cartridges. The HP all-in-one remembers the  
alignment values for that print cartridge, so you do not need to realign the print  
cartridges.  
To align the print cartridges from the control panel when prompted  
Make sure you have letter or A4 unused plain white paper loaded in the input tray,  
and then press OK.  
The HP all-in-one prints a print cartridge alignment sheet and aligns the print  
cartridges. Recycle or discard the page.  
Note If you have colored paper loaded in the input tray when you align the print  
cartridges, the alignment will fail. Load unused plain white paper into the  
input tray, and then try the alignment again.  
If the alignment fails again, you might have a defective sensor or print  
cartridge. Contact HP Support. Go to www.hp.com/support. If prompted,  
choose your country/region, and then click Contact HP for information on  
calling for technical support.

If the HP all-in-one is used in a dusty environment, a small amount of debris might  
accumulate inside the device. This debris can include dust, hair, carpet, or clothing  
fibers. When debris gets on the print cartridges, it can cause ink streaks and smudges  
on printed pages. Ink streaking can be corrected by cleaning around the ink nozzles as  
described here.  
Note Clean the area around the ink nozzles only if you continue to see streaks and  
smudges on your printed pages after you have already cleaned the print  
cartridges by using the control panel or the HP Image Zone. For more  
information, see Clean the print cartridges.  
Make sure you have the following materials available:

The HP all-in-one does not print  
Solution  
If your HP all-in-one and computer are not communicating with each other, try the  
following:  
Check the USB cable. If you are using an older cable, it might not be working  
properly. Try connecting it to another product to see if the USB cable works. If  
you experience problems, the USB cable might need to be replaced. Also  
verify that the cable does not exceed 3 meters (9.8 feet) in length.  
Make sure your computer is USB ready. Some operating systems, such as  
Windows 95 and Windows NT, do not support USB connections. Check the  
documentation that came with your operating system for more information.  
Check the connection from your HP all-in-one to your computer. Verify that the  
USB cable is securely plugged into the USB port on the back of your HP all-  
in-one. Make sure the other end of the USB cable is plugged into a USB port  
on your computer. After the cable is connected properly, turn your HP all-in-  
one off and then on again.

The HP all-in-one is having problems sending and receiving faxes  
Solution  
Note This possible solution applies only in the countries/regions that receive a 2-  
wire phone cord in the box with the HP all-in-one, including: Argentina,  
Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Greece, India, Indonesia,  
Ireland, Japan, Korea, Latin America, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippines,  
Poland, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan,  
Thailand, USA, Venezuela, and Vietnam.  
Make sure you used the phone cord supplied in the box with your HP all-in-one  
to connect to the telephone wall jack. One end of this special 2-wire cord  
should be connected to the port labeled "1-LINE" on the back of your HP all-  
in-one and the other end to your telephone wall jack, as shown below.

This special 2-wire cord is different from the more common 4-wire phone cords  
you might already have in your home or office. Check the end of the cord and  
compare it to the two types of cords shown below.  
If you used the 4-wire phone cord, disconnect it, find the supplied 2-wire cord,  
and then connect the 2-wire cord to the port labeled "1-LINE" on the back of

HP Officejet 7300/7400 series all-in-one  
 
your HP all-in-one. For more information on connecting this phone cord and  
setting up your HP all-in-one for faxing, see Fax setup.  
If the supplied phone cord is not long enough, you can extend it. For  
enough.  
Try connecting a working phone and phone cord to the telephone wall jack  
that you are using for the HP all-in-one and check for a dial tone. If you do not  
hear a dial tone, contact your telephone company and have them check the  
line.  
Other equipment, which uses the same phone line as the HP all-in-one, might  
be in use. For example, you cannot use your HP all-in-one for faxing if an  
extension phone is off hook, or if you are using your PC modem to send an e-  
mail or access the Internet.  
The phone line connection might be noisy. Phone lines with poor sound quality  
(noise) can cause faxing problems. Check the sound quality of the phone line  
by plugging a phone into the telephone wall jack and listening for static or  
other noise. If you hear noise, turn Error Correction Mode (ECM) off and try  
faxing again. For information, see Use error correction mode. If the problem  
persists, contact your telephone company.  
If you are using a digital subscriber line (DSL) service, make sure that you  
have a DSL filter connected or you will not be able to fax successfully. The  
DSL filter removes the digital signal and allows your HP all-in-one to  
communicate properly with the phone line. Obtain a DSL filter from your DSL  
provider. If you already have a DSL filter, make sure it is connected correctly.  
Make sure your HP all-in-one is not connected to a telephone wall jack that is  
set up for digital phones. To check if your phone line is digital, connect a  
regular analog phone to the line and listen for a dial tone. If you do not hear a  
normal sounding dial tone, it might be a phone line set up for digital phones.  
If you are using either a private branch exchange (PBX) or an integrated  
services digital network (ISDN) converter/terminal adapter, make sure the  
HP all-in-one is connected to the port that is designated for fax and phone  
use. Also, make sure that the terminal adapter is set to the correct switch type  
for your country/region, if possible.  
Note that some ISDN systems allow you to configure the ports for specific  
phone equipment. For example, you might have assigned one port for  
telephone and Group 3 fax and another port for multiple purposes. If you  
continue to have problems when connected to the fax/phone port, try using the  
port designated for multiple purposes; it might be labeled "multi-combi" or  
something similar. For information on setting up your HP all-in-one with a PBX  
phone system or ISDN line, see Fax setup.  
If your HP all-in-one shares the same phone line with a DSL service, the DSL  
modem might not be properly grounded. If the DSL modem is not properly  
grounded, it can create noise on the phone line. Phone lines with poor sound  
quality (noise) can cause faxing problems. You can check the sound quality of  
the phone line by plugging a phone into the telephone wall jack and listening  
for static or other noise. If you hear noise, turn off your DSL modem and  
completely remove power for at least 15 minutes. Turn the DSL modem back  
on and listen to the dial tone again.

Note You might notice static on the phone line again in the future. If your  
HP all-in-one stops sending and receiving faxes, repeat this process.  
If the phone line is still noisy or for more information on turning your DSL  
modem off, contact your DSL provider for support. You can also contact your  
telephone company.  
If you are using a phone splitter, this can cause faxing problems. (A splitter is a  
two-cord connector that plugs into a telephone wall jack.) Try removing the  
splitter and connecting the HP all-in-one directly to the telephone wall jack.  
The HP all-in-one is having problems sending a manual fax  
Solution  
Make sure the telephone you use to initiate the fax call is connected directly to  
the HP all-in-one. To send a fax manually, the telephone must be connected  
directly to the port labeled "2-EXT" on the HP all-in-one, as shown below. For  
information on sending faxes manually, see Send a fax manually from a phone.

You cannot use the keypad on the control panel of the HP all-in-one.  
The HP all-in-one cannot receive faxes, but can send faxes  
Solution  
If you are not using a distinctive ring service, check to make sure that the  
Answer Ring Pattern feature on your HP all-in-one is set to All Rings. For  
If Auto Answer is set to Off, you will need to manually receive faxes;  
otherwise, your HP all-in-one will not receive the fax. For information on  
receiving faxes manually, see Receive a fax manually.  
If you have a voice mail service at the same phone number you use for fax  
calls, you must receive faxes manually, not automatically. This means that you  
must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls. For information

setup. For information on receiving faxes manually, see Receive a fax  
If you have a PC modem on the same phone line with your HP all-in-one,  
check to make sure that the PC modem software is not set to receive faxes  
automatically. Modems with the auto fax receive feature turned on will receive  
all incoming faxes, which prevents the HP all-in-one from receiving fax calls.  
If you have an answering machine on the same phone line with your HP all-  
in-one, you might have one of the following problems:  
Your answering machine might not be set up properly with your HP all-in-  
one.  
Your outgoing message might be too long or too loud to allow the HP all-  
in-one to detect fax tones, and the calling fax machine might disconnect.  
Your answering machine might hang up too quickly after the outgoing  
message plays if it does not detect someone trying to record a message,  
as when a fax is calling. This prevents the HP all-in-one from detecting the  
fax tones. This problem is most common with digital answering machines.  
The following actions might help solve these problems:  
When you have an answering machine on the same phone line you use  
for fax calls, try connecting the answering machine directly to the HP all-  
in-one as described in Fax setup.  
Make sure your HP all-in-one is set to receive faxes automatically. For  
information on setting up your HP all-in-one to receive faxes  
Make sure the Rings to Answer setting is correct. Set your answering  
machine to answer in 4 rings and your HP all-in-one to answer in the  
maximum number of rings supported by your device. (The maximum  
number of rings varies by country/region.) In this setup, the answering  
machine will answer the call and the HP all-in-one will monitor the line. If  
the HP all-in-one detects fax tones, the HP all-in-one will receive the fax.  
If the call is a voice call, the answering machine will record the incoming  
message. For information on setting the number of rings to answer, see  
Disconnect the answering machine and then try receiving a fax. If you can  
receive a fax without the answering machine, the answering machine  
might be causing the problem.  
Reconnect the answering machine and rerecord your outgoing message.  
Make sure the message is as short as possible (no more than 10 seconds  
long), and that you speak softly and slowly when recording it. At the end  
of your outgoing message, record an additional 4 - 5 seconds of silence  
with no background noise. Try to receive a fax again.  
Note Some digital answering machines might not retain the recorded  
silence at the end of your outgoing message. Play back your  
outgoing message to check.  
If your HP all-in-one shares the same phone line with other types of phone  
equipment, such as an answering machine, a PC modem, or multi-port switch  
box, the fax signal level might be reduced. This can cause problems during fax  
reception.  
User Guide  
185  
Chapter 16  
To find out if other equipment is causing a problem, disconnect everything  
except the HP all-in-one from the phone line, and then try to receive a fax. If  
you can receive faxes successfully without the other equipment, one or more  
pieces of the other equipment is causing problems; try adding them back one  
at a time and receiving a fax each time, until you identify which equipment is  
causing the problem.  
If you have a special ring pattern for your fax phone number (using a distinctive  
ring service through your telephone company), make sure that the Answer  
Ring Pattern feature on your HP all-in-one is set to match. For example, if the  
telephone company has assigned your fax number a double ring pattern, make  
sure Double Rings is selected as the Answer Ring Pattern setting. For  
information on changing this setting, see Change the answer ring pattern  
Note The HP all-in-one cannot recognize some ring patterns, such as those  
with alternating short and long ringing patterns. If you are having  
problems with a ring pattern of this type, ask your telephone company to  
assign a non-alternating ring pattern.  
Fax tones are recorded on my answering machine  
Solution  
When you have an answering machine on the same phone line you use for fax  
calls, try connecting the answering machine directly to the HP all-in-one as  
described in Fax setup. If you do not connect the answering machine as  
recommended, fax tones might be recorded on your answering machine.  
Make sure your HP all-in-one is set to receive faxes automatically. If your  
HP all-in-one is set up to receive faxes manually, the HP all-in-one will not  
answer incoming calls. You must be available to respond in person to incoming  
fax calls, or the HP all-in-one will not receive the fax and your answering  
machine will record the fax tones. For information on setting up your HP all-  
in-one to receive faxes automatically, see Set up the HP all-in-one to receive  
faxes.  
Make sure the Rings to Answer setting is correct. The number of rings to  
answer for the HP all-in-one should be greater than the number of rings to  
answer for the answering machine. If the answering machine and the HP all-  
in-one are set to the same number of rings to answer, both devices will  
answer the call, and fax tones will be recorded on the answering machine.  
Set your answering machine to answer in 4 rings and your HP all-in-one to  
answer in the maximum number of rings supported by your device. (The  
maximum number of rings varies by country/region.) In this setup, the  
answering machine will answer the call and the HP all-in-one will monitor the  
line. If the HP all-in-one detects fax tones, the HP all-in-one will receive the  
fax. If the call is a voice call, the answering machine will record the incoming  
message. For information on setting the number of rings to answer, see Set  
I hear static on my phone line since connecting the HP all-in-one

HP Officejet 7300/7400 series all-in-one  
   
Solution  
Note This possible solution applies only in the countries/regions that receive a 2-  
wire phone cord in the box with the HP all-in-one, including: Argentina,  
Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Greece, India, Indonesia,  
Ireland, Japan, Korea, Latin America, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippines,  
Poland, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan,  
Thailand, USA, Venezuela, and Vietnam.  
If you did not connect the 2-wire cord (supplied in the box with your HP all-in-  
one) to the port labeled "1-LINE" on the back of your HP all-in-one to your  
telephone wall jack, you might hear static on your phone line and you probably  
will not be able to fax successfully. This special 2-wire cord is different from the  
more common 4-wire phone cords you might already have in your home or  
office.  
If you are using a phone splitter, this can cause static on the phone line. (A  
splitter is a two-cord connector that plugs into a telephone wall jack.) Try  
removing the splitter and connecting the HP all-in-one directly to the telephone  
wall jack.  
If you are not using a proper grounded power outlet for your HP all-in-one, you  
might hear static on your phone line. Try connecting to another power outlet.  
The phone cord that came with my HP all-in-one is not long enough  
Solution  
If the phone cord that came with your HP all-in-one is not long enough, you can use a  
coupler to extend the length. You can purchase a coupler at an electronics store  
that carries phone accessories. You will also need another phone cord, which can  
be a standard phone cord that you might already have in your home or office.  
Tip If your HP all-in-one came with a 2-wire phone cord adaptor, you can use it  
with a 4-wire phone cord to extend the length. For information on using the 2-  
wire phone cord adaptor, see the documentation that came with it.

Using the phone cord supplied in the box with your HP all-in-one, connect one  
end to the coupler, then connect the other end to the port labeled "1-LINE" on  
the back of your HP all-in-one.  
Connect another phone cord to the open port on the coupler and to the  
telephone wall jack, as shown below.

I am having problems faxing over the Internet  
Solution  
Check the following:  
Some Internet faxing services do not work properly when the HP all-in-one is  
sending and receiving faxes at high speed (33600bps). If you experience  
problems sending and receiving faxes while using an Internet fax service, use a  
slower fax speed. You can do this by changing the Fax Speed setting from  
High (the default) to Medium. For information on changing this setting, see  
You can only send and receive faxes by connecting a phone cord to the port  
labeled "1-LINE" on the HP all-in-one and not from the Ethernet port. This  
means that your connection to the Internet must be done either through a  
converter box (which supplies regular analog phone jacks for fax connections)  
or your telephone company.  
Contact your telephone company to make sure their Internet faxing service  
supports faxing.

Paper has jammed the optional two-sided printing accessory  
192  
HP Officejet 7300/7400 series all-in-one  
   
Solution  
You might need to remove the two-sided printing accessory. For more information,  
see the printed guide that came with your two-sided printing accessory.  
Note If you turned the HP all-in-one off before clearing the paper jam, turn it back  
on, and then restart your print, copy, or fax job.  
The automatic document feeder picks up too many pages or none at all  
Cause  
You need to clean the separator pad or rollers inside the automatic document  
feeder. Pencil lead, wax, or ink can build up on the rollers and separator pad after  
extensive use, or if you copy handwritten originals or originals that are heavy with  
ink.  
If the automatic document feeder does not pick up any pages at all, the rollers  
inside the automatic document feeder need to be cleaned.  
If the automatic document feeder picks up multiple pages instead of single  
sheets, the separator pad inside the automatic document feeder needs to be  
cleaned.  
Solution  
Load one or two sheets of unused plain white full-size paper into the document  
feeder tray, and then press Start Copy Black to pull the pages through the  
automatic document feeder. The plain paper releases and absorbs residue from the  
rollers and separator pad.  
Tip If the automatic document feeder does not pick up the plain paper, try  
cleaning the front roller. Wipe the roller with a soft lint-free cloth dampened  
with distilled water.  
If the problem persists, or the automatic document feeder does not pick up the plain  
paper, you can clean the rollers and separator pad manually. Remove the face  
plate from the front of the automatic document feeder to access the pick assembly  
inside the automatic document feeder, clean the rollers or separator pad, and then  
reattach the face plate, as described in the following procedures.  
To remove the face plate from the front of the automatic document feeder  
1
Remove all originals from the document feeder tray.  
Tip You might find it easier to work with the automatic document feeder if you  
first remove the document feeder tray.

Use this section to solve the following errors generated when your HP all-in-one fails to  
connect to the HP Instant Share service.  
No network connection. See documentation.  
Solution  
Wired network  
Network cables are loose or disconnected.  
Incomplete or incorrect network connections prevent devices from communicating  
with each other and generate problems in your network.  
Check cable connections from the HP all-in-one to your gateway, router, or  
hub to ensure connections are secure. If these connections are secure, check  
your remaining cables to ensure connections are secure. Make sure none of  
the cables are crushed or damaged.  
Check all of the following connections: power cords; cables between the  
HP all-in-one and the hub or router; cables between the hub or router and your  
computer; and (if applicable) cables to and from your modem or Internet  
connection.  
If the connections mentioned above are secure, connect the cable to the  
HP all-in-one to a working part of the network to verify the cable is bad, or  
swap out remaining cables (one at a time) until you replace the malfunctioning  
cable.  
Note You can also launch the HP Director from the desktop on your  
computer, and click Status. A dialog box appears on the computer  
stating whether or not the HP all-in-one is connected.  
Solution  
Wireless Network  
There is some sort of interference.  
The HP all-in-one is out of range of the access point.  
Verify that physical barriers and other forms of interference are limited.  
Signals transmitted between your HP all-in-one and access point are affected  
by interference from other wireless devices - including cordless phones,  
microwave ovens, and neighboring wireless networks. Physical objects  
between the computer and the HP all-in-one also affect transmitted signals. If  
this is occurring, move your network components closer to the HP all-in-one.  
User Guide  
199  
   
Chapter 16  
To minimize interference from another wireless network, try changing  
channels.  
Move the HP all-in-one and the access point closer together. If the distance  
between your access point and the HP all-in-one is significant, try reducing the  
distance. (The range for 802.11b is approximately 100 feet, and less if there is  
any interference.) If possible, provide a clear path between the access point  
and HP all-in-one, and minimize sources of radio interference.  
Solution  
Your HP all-in-one was connected to a network at one time. It is now directly  
connected to a computer using a USB cable. The HP Instant Share application is  
reading the previous network settings.  
If you are trying to use HP Instant Share while using a USB cable, reset the  
network settings on the HP all-in-one or access HP Instant Share from the  
HP Image Zone software on your computer.

HP Instant Share Error Report messages  
If you encounter a problem while sending images to a destination, an HP Instant Share  
Error Report prints on your HP all-in-one. Use this section to solve possible file  
problems shown on the Error Report.  
Unsupported file format  
Solution  
One of the files sent to the HP Instant Share service is not one of the supported file  
types.  
Convert the file to a JPEG and try the task again.  
Corrupted file  
Solution  
The file you sent is corrupted.  
Replace the file and try again. For example, retake the digital photo or  
regenerate the image.  
Exceeds supported file size  
Solution  
One of the files sent to the HP Instant Share service exceeds the server's file size  
limit.  
Rework the image so that it is below 5 MB in size, and then try sending it  
again.  
Photo memory card troubleshooting  
The following troubleshooting tips relate only to Macintosh users of iPhoto.  
You insert a memory card into a networked HP all-in-one, but iPhoto does not see  
it.  
Solution  
A memory card must appear on the desktop for iPhoto to find it, but a memory card  
inserted in a networked HP all-in-one does not automatically mount on the  
desktop. If you simply launch iPhoto from its folder or by double-clicking an alias,  
the application cannot see the inserted, but unmounted memory card. Instead start  
the HP Director and choose iPhoto from More Applications. When you start  
iPhoto from within the HP Director in this way, the application sees and mounts the  
memory card automatically.  
You have video clips on a memory card, but they do not appear in iPhoto after  
you import the memory card’s contents.  
Solution  
iPhoto handles still photos only. To manage both video clips and still images, use  
Unload Images from the HP Director instead.

HP Officejet 7300/7400 series all-in-one  
     
Extent of limited warranty  
Hewlett-Packard ("HP") warrants to the end-user customer ("Customer") that each HP Officejet  
7300/7400 series all-in-one product ("Product"), including related software, accessories, media,  
and supplies, shall be free from defects in material and workmanship for the duration, which  
begins on the date of purchase by the Customer.  
For each hardware Product, the duration of HP's limited warranty is one year for parts and one  
year for labor. For all other Products, the duration of HP's limited warranty for both parts and labor  
is ninety days.  
For each software Product, HP's limited warranty applies only to a failure to execute programming  
instructions. HP does not warrant that the operation of any Product shall be uninterrupted or error  
free.  
HP's limited warranty covers only those defects which arise as a result of normal use of a Product,  
and does not cover any other problems, including those which arise as a result of (a) improper  
maintenance or modification, (b) software, accessories, media, or supplies not provided or  
supported by HP, or (c) operation outside the Product's specifications.  
For any hardware Product, the use of a non-HP ink cartridge or a refilled ink cartridge does not  
affect either the warranty to the Customer or any HP support contract with the Customer.  
However, if Product failure or damage is attributable to the use of a non-HP or refilled ink  
cartridge, HP shall charge its standard labor and materials charges to service the Product for the  
failure or damage.  
If HP receives, during the applicable warranty period, notice of a defect in any Product, HP shall  
either repair or replace the defective Product, at HP's option. Where labor charges are not covered  
by HP's limited warranty, repairs shall be at HP's standard charges for labor.  
If HP is unable to repair or replace, as applicable, a defective Product which is covered by HP's  
warranty, HP shall, within a reasonable time after being notified of the defect, refund the purchase  
price for the Product.  
HP shall have no obligation to repair, replace, or refund until the Customer returns the defective  
Product to HP.  
Any replacement product may be either new or like-new, provided that it has functionality at least  
equal to that of the Product being replaced.  
HP products, including each Product, may contain remanufactured parts, components, or materials  
equivalent to new in performance.  
HP's limited warranty for each Product is valid in any country/region or locality where the covered  
HP product is distributed by HP. Contracts for additional warranty service, such as on-site service,  
are available from any authorized HP service facility in countries/regions where the product is  
distributed by HP or by an authorized representative.

Notice to users of the U.S. telephone network: FCC requirements  
This equipment complies with FCC rules, Part 68. On this equipment is a label that contains,  
among other information, the FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalent Number (REN) for  
this equipment. If requested, provide this information to your telephone company.  
An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this equipment. This  
equipment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a  
compatible modular jack which is Part 68 compliant. This equipment connects to the telephone  
network through the following standard network interface jack: USOC RJ-11C.  
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to your telephone line and  
still have all of those devices ring when your number is called. Too many devices on one line may  
result in failure to ring in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all, areas the sum of the  
RENs of all devices should not exceed five (5). To be certain of the number of devices you may  
connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should call your local telephone company to  
determine the maximum REN for your calling area.  
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, your telephone company may discontinue  
your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. If advance notice is not  
practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will also be advised of your right to file a  
complaint with the FCC. Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment,  
operations, or procedures that could affect the proper operation of your equipment. If they do, you  
will be given advance notice so you will have the opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.  
If you experience trouble with this equipment, please contact the manufacturer, or look elsewhere  
in this manual, for warranty or repair information. Your telephone company may ask you to  
disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has been corrected or until you are  
sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.  
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection  
to party lines is subject to state tariffs. Contact your state public utility commission, public service  
commission, or corporation commission for more information.

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to use a  
computer or other electronic device, including fax machines, to send any message unless such  
message clearly contains in a margin at the top or bottom of each transmitted page or on the first  
page of transmission, the date and time it is sent and an identification of the business, other entity,  
or other individual sending the message and the telephone number of the sending machine or  
such business, other entity, or individual. (The telephone number provided may not be a 900  
number or any other number for which charges exceed local or long-distance transmission  
charges.) In order to program this information into your fax machine, you should complete the  
steps described in the software.  
FCC statement  
The United States Federal Communications Commission (in 47 CFR 15.105) has specified that the  
following notice be brought to the attention of users of this product.  
Declaration of Conformity: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a  
Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following  
two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept  
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Class B  
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential  
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and, if not  
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio  
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular  
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,  
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to  
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:  
Reorient the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is  
connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.  
For more information, contact the Product Regulations Manager, Hewlett-Packard Company, San  
Diego, (858) 655-4100.  
The user may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission  
helpful: How to Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems. This booklet is available from  
the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington DC, 20402. Stock No. 004-000-00345-4.  
Caution Pursuant to Part 15.21 of the FCC Rules, any changes or modifications to this  
equipment not expressly approved by the Hewlett-Packard Company may cause harmful  
interference and void the FCC authorization to operate this equipment.  
Exposure to radio frequency radiation  
Caution The radiated output power of this device is far below the FCC radio frequency  
exposure limits. Nevertheless, the device shall be used in such a manner that the  
potential for human contact during normal operation is minimized. This product and any  
attached external antenna, if supported, shall be placed in such a manner to minimize the  
potential for human contact during normal operation. In order to avoid the possibility of  
exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna shall  
not be less than 20 cm (8 inches) during normal operation.

Note à l’attention des utilisateurs du réseau téléphonique Canadien/ notice to users  
of the Canadian telephone network  
Cet appareil est conforme aux spécifications techniques des équipements terminaux d’Industrie  
Canada. Le numéro d’enregistrement atteste de la conformité de l’appareil. L’abréviation IC qui  
précède le numéro d’enregistrement indique que l’enregistrement a été effectué dans le cadre  
d’une Déclaration de conformité stipulant que les spécifications techniques d’Industrie Canada ont  
été respectées. Néanmoins, cette abréviation ne signifie en aucun cas que l’appareil a été validé  
par Industrie Canada.  
Pour leur propre sécurité, les utilisateurs doivent s’assurer que les prises électriques reliées à la  
terre de la source d’alimentation, des lignes téléphoniques et du circuit métallique d’alimentation  
en eau sont, le cas échéant, branchées les unes aux autres. Cette précaution est particulièrement  
importante dans les zones rurales.  
Le numéro REN (Ringer Equivalence Number) attribué à chaque appareil terminal fournit une  
indication sur le nombre maximal de terminaux qui peuvent être connectés à une interface  
téléphonique. La terminaison d’une interface peut se composer de n’importe quelle combinaison  
d’appareils, à condition que le total des numéros REN ne dépasse pas 5.  
Basé sur les résultats de tests FCC Partie 68, le numéro REN de ce produit est 0.2B.  
This equipment meets the applicable Industry Canada Terminal Equipment Technical  
Specifications. This is confirmed by the registration number. The abbreviation IC before the  
registration number signifies that registration was performed based on a Declaration of Conformity  
indicating that Industry Canada technical specifications were met. It does not imply that Industry  
Canada approved the equipment.  
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power  
utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together.  
This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.  
Note The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to each terminal device provides an  
indication of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone  
interface. The termination on an interface may consist of any combination of devices

Notice to users in the European Economic Area  
This product is designed to be connected to the analog Switched Telecommunication Networks  
(PSTN) of the European Economic Area (EEA) countries/regions.  
Network compatibility depends on customer selected settings, which must be reset to use the  
equipment on a telephone network in a country/region other than where the product was  
purchased. Contact the vendor or Hewlett-Packard Company if additional product support is  
necessary.  
This equipment has been certified by the manufacturer in accordance with Directive 1999/5/EC  
(annex II) for Pan-European single-terminal connection to the public switched telephone network  
(PSTN). However, due to differences between the individual PSTNs provided in different  
countries, the approval does not, of itself, give an unconditional assurance of successful operation  
on every PSTN network termination point.  
In the event of problems, you should contact your equipment supplier in the first instance.
