HP promises black texts in razor-sharp quality for its black ink. It has a long shelf life, dries well, and is not erasable. It also withstands UV radiation for a long time. HP uses a different chemical principle for the colored inks. They make brilliant photos and graphic prints. On the photo side, the HP Deskjet 3700 Series printer has only two cartridges and this is reflected in the colors which are not perfect but the printing remains generally of good quality. However, you should not be in a hurry to contemplate your photos, printing being extremely long in A4 as in 10 x 15. It takes about 2 minutes for 10 x 15 and 5 to 6 minutes for an A4 photo. A rather basic scanner with a resolution of 600 x 600 but efficient and fast. The copy function is also a good surprise, the quality is excellent but everything is a bit slow. According to the manufacturer, the XL cartridge has a range of approx. 300 pages. This applies to a page coverage of 5% and also depends on the print quality. For those who only print now and then, the standard size of 120 pages can be sufficient. HP Deskjet 3700 Series with its Wi-Fi connectivity, the printer limits cables and is also compatible with AirPrint, Google Cloud Print, and Wifi Direct. Finally, it is also possible to manage your printer with the HP All-in-one Printer Remote application.

3. Replace cartridges
4. Use single cartridge mode
5. Cartridge warranty information
6. Tips for working with cartridges

Check estimated ink levels

You can easily check the ink supply level to determine how soon you might need to replace a cartridge. The ink supply level shows an estimate of the amount of ink remaining in the cartridges.

NOTE: If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.

NOTE: Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not have to replace the cartridges until the print quality is unacceptable.

NOTE: Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the printer and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used. For more information, see www.hp.com/go/inkusage.

To check the ink levels from the printer control panel

• The Ink Level icons on the printer display show an estimate of ink remaining in the cartridges.

To check the ink levels from the HP printer software (Windows)

1. Open the HP printer software. For more information, see Open the HP printer software (Windows) on page 18.

Use single cartridge mode

Use the single cartridge mode to operate the printer with only one cartridge. The single cartridge mode is initiated when one of the following occurs.

• There is only one cartridge installed in the carriage.
• A cartridge is removed from the carriage if there are two cartridges installed previously.

NOTE: If the printer enters the single cartridge mode when two cartridges are installed in the printer, verify that the protective piece of plastic tape has been removed from each cartridge. When the plastic tape covers the cartridge contacts, the printer cannot detect that the cartridge is installed. If there is no plastic tape on the cartridges, try cleaning the cartridge contacts. For information about cleaning cartridge contacts, see Cartridge issues on page 74.

To exit the single cartridge mode

• Install both the black and tri-color cartridges in the printer.

Cartridge warranty information

The HP cartridge warranty is applicable when the cartridge is used in its designated HP printing device. This warranty does not cover HP cartridges that have been refilled, remanufactured, refurbished, misused, or tampered with.

During the warranty period, the cartridge is covered as long as the HP ink is not depleted and the end of warranty date has not been reached. The end of warranty date, in YYYY/MM/DD format, may be found on the cartridge as indicated:

For a copy of the HP Limited Warranty Statement, see the printed documentation that came with the printer.

Tips for working with cartridges

Use the following tips to work with cartridges:

• To protect the cartridges from drying out, always turn the printer off using the Power button, and wait until the Power button light goes out.
• Do not open or untape cartridges until you are ready to install them. Leaving tape on the cartridges reduces ink evaporation.
• Insert the cartridges into the correct slots. Match the color and icon of each cartridge to the color and icon for each slot. Make sure the cartridges snap into place.
• Align the printer for best print quality. See Printing issues on page 76 for more information.
• When the Estimated Cartridge Levels screen shows one or both cartridges in a low state, consider getting replacement cartridges to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable. See Replace cartridges on page 50 for more information.
• If you remove a cartridge from the printer for any reason, try to replace it again as soon as possible. Outside of the printer, if unprotected, cartridges begin to dry out.
