Follow the on-screen prompts and guided setup videos accessed via the HP Smart app or website. Install the included ink bottles by carefully following the spill-free refill system instructions.

Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasives. Keep the printer in an environment within the recommended operating temperature (5-40 °C) and humidity (20-80%).
