The HP LaserJet 1012 is a monochrome printer designed to work on both the Macintosh and PC platforms. The 1012 is capable of printing at a maximum resolution of 600 by 600 dpi on a range of media, including cards, envelopes, labels and transparencies. These features, combined with the printer's compact design, make it an attractive choice for the home office or corporate user. Replacing the toner cartridge on an HP LaserJet 1012 is a straightforward procedure, and is easily accomplished in a matter of minutes.
Instructions
1. Turn off the printer and remove the power cord. Wait several minutes for the printer to cool down.
2. Slide your finger under the right edge of the print-cartridge door and lift the door open. Grip the old print cartridge by the front handle and pull it up and out of the printer. Set the print cartridge aside.
3. Use a dry cloth to clean any excess toner out of the print cartridge cavity.
4. Prepare your new print cartridge by shaking it in a gentle, horizontal motion. This will help distribute the toner throughout the cartridge.
5. Locate the tab on the print cartridge and pull on it until all of the tape is removed. Align the print cartridge with the print cartridge cavity in the printer; insert the cartridge into the printer. Once the cartridge is properly seated, close the print-cartridge door.
6. Reconnect the printer and turn it on. Your printer is now ready for use.
