Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Before you start, make sure you have the following supplies on hand:

• New HP Envy 6000 ink cartridges
• A clean, lint-free cloth

Step 2: Turn on the Printer and Open the Ink Cartridge Door

Turn on your HP Envy 6000 printer and wait for it to initialize. Once the printer is ready, open the ink cartridge door. The door is located on the front of the printer, below the control panel.

Unpack the new ink cartridge and remove the protective tape. Align the new ink cartridge with the corresponding color-coded slot in the printer and insert it firmly. Push down on the cartridge until it clicks into place.

Step 5: Close the Ink Cartridge Door

Once you have inserted all the new ink cartridges, close the ink cartridge door. The printer will automatically align the new cartridges.

Step 6: Print a Test Page

To ensure that the new ink cartridges are working properly, print a test page. You can do this by pressing the “Print” button on the control panel.

Step 7: Dispose of the Old Ink Cartridges

Dispose of the old ink cartridges according to your local regulations. Most recycling centers accept used ink cartridges.
