Replacing the cartridges (ink cartridges) in the HP Officejet Pro 8600 is a routine printer maintenance procedure. When your HP Officejet printer runs out of ink, you can replace the ink cartridge yourself by accessing the ink cartridge compartment and removing the old ink cartridge.
Step
Step 1. Make sure the HP Officejet Pro is turned on
This printer must be on when you are about to replace the ink cartridges.
Step 2. Place your fingers into the slot located on the left side of the machine, then pull the ink cartridge compartment door forward
The machine tray will then move to the left while the ink cartridge compartment is open.
Step 3. Wait until the machine tray stops moving and makes no sound at all
Step 4. Press on the front of the ink cartridge to remove the ink cartridge
Step 5. Remove the old ink cartridge by pulling it out of the slot towards you
Step 6. Hold the new ink cartridge so that its contacts are facing the machine
Step 7. Insert the new ink cartridge by gently pushing it forward into the available slot until a clicking sound appears
The colored dot on the ink cartridge must match the color of the dot in the available slot.
Step 8. Close the ink cartridge compartment door
Step 9. Wait for the engine to warm up and cool down
You can now start using your Officejet Pro 8600.
