Notes and footnotes
  1. Draft page yields are approximate and were measured using “Draft” print-quality settings in the Windows/Mac driver, based on HP Methodology from the simulation of continuous printing of ISO/IEC 24712 pages. Actual page yield varies significantly depending on content printed, ink levels maintained in all four reservoirs, and other factors. For more information about fill and yield, see https://hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies .
  2. Black and composite color average per bottle (cyan/magenta/yellow) results based on HP methodology from the simulation of continuous printing of ISO/IEC 24712 test pages. Not based on ISO/IEC 24711 test process. An additional black ink bottle is required to print 8,000 color test pages. Actual yield varies based on content of printed pages and other factors. Some ink from included bottles is used to start up the printer. For more information about fill and yield, see http://www.hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies .
  3. [1] Dimensions vary as per configuration
  4. [2] Power requirements are based on the country/region where the printer is sold. Do not convert operating voltages. This will damage the printer and void the product warranty.
  5. [6] HP Auto-On/Auto-Off Technology capabilities subject to printer and settings; may require a firmware upgrade.
  6. [7] Ink bottles can be recycled through HP’s Planet Partner Program. Program availability varies. See www.hp.com/go/recycle
  7. [4] Speed specifications have been updated to reflect current industry testing methods.
  8. [8] HP ink bottles compared to HP ink cartridges. Cost per page based on expected black and composite (cyan/magenta/yellow) page yield results based on HP methodology and continuous printing of ISO/IEC 24712 test pages. Not based on ISO/IEC 24711 test process. Actual yield varies based on content of printed pages and other factors. Some ink from included bottles is used to start up the printer. For more information about fill and yield, see www.hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies .
