Storing and handling photo paper
Follow these instructions to maintain the quality of HP brand photo paper.
Storage
● Keep unused photo paper in a plastic bag. Store the packaged photo paper on a flat surface in a cool place.
● When you are ready to print, remove only the paper that you plan to use immediately from the plastic bag. When you have finished printing, return any unused photo paper to the plastic bag.
● Do not leave unused photo paper in the paper tray. The paper might start to curl, which can reduce the quality of your photos.
Handling
● Always hold photo paper by its edges. Fingerprints on photo paper can reduce print quality.
● If the corners of the photo paper curl more than 10 mm (0.4 inch), flatten the paper by putting it in the storage bag, and then gently bending it the opposite direction of the curl until the paper lies flat.
Photo paper should be flat before it is printed on.

Maintaining the printer body
Because the printer ejects ink onto the paper in a fine mist, ink smudges will eventually appear on the printer case and adjacent surfaces. To remove smudges, stains, or dried ink from the exterior of the printer, use a soft cloth moistened with water.
When cleaning the printer, keep these tips in mind:
● Do not clean the interior of the printer. Keep all fluids away from the interior.
● Do not use household cleaners or detergent. If a household cleaner or detergent has been used on the printer, wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft cloth moistened with water.
● Do not lubricate the support rod that the print cartridge cradle uses to slide back and forth. Noise is normal when the cradle moves back and forth.
Removing ink from your skin and clothing
Follow these instructions to remove ink from your skin and clothing:
Surface
Skin
White fabric
Color fabric
Remedy
Wash the area with an abrasive soap.
Wash the fabric in cold water and use chlorine bleach.
Wash the fabric in cold water and use sudsy ammonia.
Caution Always use cold water to remove ink from fabric. Warm or hot water can set the ink into the fabric.

Maintaining print cartridges
The following tips will help maintain HP print cartridges and ensure consistent print quality:
● Keep all print cartridges in their sealed packages until they are needed. Print cartridges should be stored at room temperatures (15° to 35° C or 59° to 95° F).
● Do not remove the
covering the ink nozzles until you are ready to install the print cartridge in the printer. If the plastic tape has been removed from the print cartridge, do not attempt to reattach it. Reattaching the tape damages the print cartridge.
For information about storing print cartridges if they are removed from the printer, see
68 HP Deskjet 5700 Series
Storing print cartridges
When print cartridges are removed from the printer, store them in an airtight plastic container or in the print cartridge protector that comes with the photo print cartridge.
If you store the print cartridge in an airtight plastic container, make sure that the ink nozzles face down but are not in contact with the container.

Environmental statement
Hewlett-Packard continuously improves the design processes of its deskjet printers to minimize the negative impact on the office environment and on the communities where printers are manufactured, shipped, and used.
Reduction and elimination
Paper use: The
Print Cancel button allows the user to save paper by quickly canceling a print job
as needed. This equipment is suitable for using recycled papers (in accordance with DIN 19 309).
Recycled paper: All paper documentation for this printer is printed on recycled paper.
Ozone: Ozone-depleting chemicals such as CFCs have been eliminated from Hewlett-Packard’s manufacturing processes.
Recycling
Design for recycling has been incorporated into this printer. The number of materials has been kept to a minimum while ensuring proper functionality and reliability. Dissimilar materials have been designed to separate easily. Fasteners and other connections are easy to locate, access, and remove using common tools. High priority parts have been designed to access quickly for efficient disassembly and repair.
Printer packaging: The packaging materials for this printer have been selected to provide maximum protection for the least cost possible, while attempting to minimize environmental impact and facilitate recycling. The rugged design of the HP Deskjet printer assists in minimizing both packaging materials and damage rates.
Plastic parts: All major plastics and plastic parts are marked according to international standards.
All plastic parts used in the printer housing and chassis are technically recyclable and all use a single polymer.
Product longevity: To ensure the longevity of your HP Deskjet printer, HP provides the following:
● Extended warranty: Details can be found in the reference guide that came with your printer.
● Replacement parts and consumables are available for a limited period after production has stopped.
● Product take-back: To return this product to HP at the end of its useful life, go to www.hp.com/recycle
. To return empty print cartridges to HP, see print cartridge recovery .
Note The extended warranty and product take-back options are not available in all countries/regions.
Energy consumption
This printer was designed with energy conservation in mind. Not only does this save natural resources, but it also saves money without affecting the high performance of the printer.
Energy consumption in standby mode: See the reference guide for energy consumption specifications.
Energy consumption in off-mode: When the printer is off, an amount of energy is still being consumed. Energy consumption can be prevented by turning the printer power off, then disconnecting the end of the printer power cord from the electrical source.
98 HP Deskjet 5700 Series
Print cartridge recovery
Customers interested in recycling their genuine HP print cartridges can participate in HP’s Planet
Partner’s Program for inkjet cartridges. HP offers this program in more countries/regions than any other inkjet cartridge manufacturer in the world. This program is provided as a free service to HP customers as an environmentally sound solution for these products at end-of-life.
To participate, simply follow the directions provided on HP’s Web site at this address: www.hp.com/recycle . This service is not available in all countries/regions. Customers may be asked for their name, phone number, and address.
Because HP’s unique recycling processes are very sensitive to material contamination, we cannot take back and recycle cartridges from other manufacturers. The end products of the recycling process are used in the manufacture of new products, and HP must ensure the composition of the material is consistent. To do that, we recycle only HP original cartridges. This program does not extend to refilled cartridges.
Returned cartridges are separated for purification into raw materials for use in other industries to manufacture new products. Examples of products made from recycled HP print cartridge materials include automobile parts, trays used in microchip fabrication processes, copper wire, steel plates, and the precious materials used in electronics. Depending on the model, HP is able to recycle up to 65% of the print cartridge by weight. The remaining parts that cannot be recycled (ink, foam, and composite parts) are disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner.
