 
print a self-test 
report
If you are experiencing problems with printing, before cleaning or replacing 
the ink cartridges or printheads, you should print a self-test report. This 
report provides useful information about both your ink cartridges and your 
printheads, including status information, installation and expiration dates, 
and ink levels. It is useful to know the ink cartridge expiration dates, so you 
can purchase replacements before that date.

A self-test report is printed for your HP OfficeJet, which may indicate 
the source of any problems you may be having. For example, you may 
notice that one color does not print evenly across the page, which may 
indicate a problem with the corresponding printhead.
