OFFICEJET PRO 8000 HIGH YIELD BLACK OEM INK CARTRIDGE

The four ink cartridges installed in your HP OfficeJet Pro 8000 Printer are consumables, which must be replaced after a certain number of new prints. The maximal number of prints possible with one ink cartridge set cannot be precisely specified, because the lifespan of each installed ink cartridge depends upon several subjective factors, such as the complexity of the printed documents (average percentage of page coverage), the type of the used media/paper, the preferred print quality settings, etc… For that reason, your HP OfficeJet Pro 8000 Printer is equipped with a highly sophisticated built-in system for ink cartridges monitoring. You can check the status of all installed ink cartridges and the estimated ink levels from the control panel (press and hold the [Cancel] button for three seconds), the embedded web server (navigate to [Information] – [Ink Supplies]), HP Toolbox (navigate to [Estimated Ink Levels] – [Cartridge Details]), or from the [Information and Support] panel of the ‘’HP Printer Utility’’ (available only for systems equipped with ‘’Mac OS X’’). You should replace the installed ink cartridges, if:

• Your HP OfficeJet Pro 8000 prints half a page and ejects the paper – The most common cause of this issue is insufficient ink levels. You should replace all empty/nearly empty ink cartridges.

• The following warning message ‘’Replace Cartridge(s) Soon’’ is displayed on the control panel LCD – The built-in system has detected that one or more ink cartridges are near the end of their useful life. You should install new ink cartridges of the indicated colors soon after the initial appearance of the warning message on the control panel display, in order to be avoided print quality issues and a non-operational mode.

• ‘’Cartridge Problem – The following cartridge appears to be missing or damaged’’ is displayed – You should try to resolve the issue by reinstalling the indicated ink cartridges. The problematic ink cartridges must be replaced, if the issue persists.

• ‘’Cartridge Problem – The following cartridge must be replaced’’ – The built-in monitoring system has detected a critical hardware error with one or more installed ink cartridges. You must replace the indicated ink cartridges.

• ‘’Incompatible Cartridge(s)’’ – The indicated ink cartridges are not intended for use in your HP OfficeJet Pro 8000 Printer. You must replace all incompatible ink cartridges.

• One or more ink cartridge LEDs are on, and the [Power] and [Resume] LEDs are flashing – The indicated ink cartridges have expired. Please note that you can continue printing with the installed expired cartridges, however, the print quality cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, you should replace the expired ink cartridges.

• The [Power] LED is on, and one or more ink cartridge LEDs are flashing – You must make sure that all ink cartridges are correctly installed into the inkjet printer. The indicated ink cartridges must be replaced, if the issue persists.

• The [Power] LED and one or more ink cartridge LEDs are blinking – The built-in system has detected that one or several of the installed ink cartridges are incompatible. You must replace the indicated ink cartridges.

• The [Power] LED and one/several ink cartridge LEDs are on – The indicated ink cartridges are near the end of their useful life. You should install new ink cartridges of the indicated colors soon.

• The [Power] LED, [Resume] LED, and one or more ink cartridge LEDs are flashing – This light pattern indicates that one or more of the installed ink cartridge are non-OEM products. You should press the [Resume] button to continue printing. No further actions are required.
