2Chapter 1: Introduction
Installing the HCO
Note Before you connect the HCO to your printer, make sure the printer
power is turned off.
Unpacking the HCO
The HCO is shipped separately from your printer. The outer carton
contains the HCO and the HCO accessories box. Unpack the HCO
accessories before you unpack the HCO.
WARNING! The HCO weighs over 66 pounds (30 kilograms). To prevent injury,
follow these instructions to unpack the HCO.
To unpack the HCO:
Step 1 Remove the accessories box from the outer carton. See
Figure 2.
Figure 2 Unpacking the accessories box
Step 2 Remove the power cable and user manual (near the HCO’s
legs).

Step 3 Grasp the HCO box and set it upright. Then, remove the
cardboard on top of the HCO.
The HCO’s legs and casters should rest on the bottom of the box.
Step 4 Grasp the top and bottom of the HCO and roll it slowly out of
the box. Make sure the HCO doesn’t fall back as you roll it
from the box. See Figure 3.

on the back of the HCO to move or lift the HCO. You might damage
the guide.
Step 5 Remove the plastic bag and all the packing tape from the
HCO and set the packing material aside.
Don’t forget to open the HCO door and remove the tape on the paper
guides inside the HCO. Otherwise, paper jams will occur.
It’s a good idea to save the packing material in case you need to ship
the HCO in the future.

Assembling the HCO
The HCO comes with a stopper unit, tray, and paper guides. (See the
checklist on page 4 for a complete list of accessories.)
To attach these accessories to the HCO:
Step 1 Use the two screws (M4 x 6) to attach the stopper to the
lower rear of the HCO. See Figure 5.
.
Figure 5 Attaching the stopper
Attaching the stopper prevents the HCO from tipping backward when
you install the other HCO accessories.

Step 2 Slip the hooks on the back of the tray over the tray base. Use
the six screws (M4 x 12) and washers to attach the tray to the
tray base. See Figure 6.
The tray has six drilled holes for the screws.

Step 3 Locate the left paper guide and slide it through the left slot of
the paper tray. See Figure 8.
The paper guides are labeled T,L for top left and T,R for top right. The
shorter arm should be on top and the flange should point inward.
Step 4 Locate the paper size markers on the HCO and find the
alignment hole that corresponds to the desired paper size.
See Figure 7.
Note Paper size markers appear on both the top and bottom of the HCO.
Figure 7 Paper size markers
Note When you first install the HCO, Hewlett-Packard recommends you set
the paper guides as far apart as possible (A3/A4 setting). You don’t
need to adjust the guides unless the HCO has paper stacking
problems.
