• RAM – 16 Mb or higher. (Minimum – 8Mb)

Avoid touching the nozzles and metal
electrical contacts.
Never try to refill the print cartridge, as this

System requirements
Print cartridges
Please note
Your PaperJet 55/65 uses a black or colour
ink cartridge. Only one cartridge can be
installed at a time.
Faxes you receive will only be printed when
the black ink cartridge is installed.
Faxes will be stored in the memory if the
colour cartridge is installed.
If the memory becomes full, your machine
will not receive any more until you have
printed some of the faxes, so it is good
practice to keep the black ink cartridge
in the machine for all normal use.

Introduction

PaperJet 55/65 user guide ~ Edition 2.0 ~ 06.07.01
Remove the current cartridge.
Insert the next cartridge.
Close the top cover.
Always store the ink cartridge you are not
using in the special container provided to
maintain its efficiency and print quality.
Pull cartridge towards front of machine to
lock in place.
Important
Your PaperJet 55/65 automatically
recognises whether you have the black or
colour cartridge in the printer and checks
the level of ink. When the cartridge is empty,
the display on the PaperJet 55/65 shows
OUT OF INK.
To ensure the level of ink is accurate, never
swap cartridges between different printers or
fax machines.

User Guide

PaperJet 55/65 user guide ~ Edition 2.0 ~ 06.07.01
The print software can detect if a document
contains colour and, if you have the wrong
cartridge installed, the PC will ask you if you
want to change it or to print using the current
cartridge.
If the document you are printing has some
black pages and some colour pages the PC will
ask if you want to use Autopilot. If you choose
Autopilot and the mono cartridge is installed,
all the black pages will be printed first. When
the black pages have printed you will be asked
to change the cartridge and the colour pages
will then be printed.
If the colour cartridge is installed when the
print request is made, the colour pages will be
printed first.
Whenever a colour cartridge is installed, your
PaperJet 55/65 display shows COLOUR
CARTRIDGE.
To print, select Print from the File menu and
click OK. Follow the on screen instructions.
To give the most economical use, your
PaperJet 55/65 will only print received faxes
when the black cartridge is installed.
If the colour cartridge is installed faxes will be
stored in the memory.
If the memory becomes full, your machine will
not receive any more until you have printed
some of the faxes, so it is good practice to
keep the black ink cartridge in the machine
for all normal use.
To print faxes from the memory, see page 19
of the main PaperJet 55/65 User Guide.
