How to Install HP 952 / 952XL Ink Cartridges on the OfficeJet 8710

You can follow the same instructions when installing original and aftermarket HP 952 cartridges. These steps apply to both standard and high yield cartridges.



1. Lift the front of the printer. You'll need to pull the latch on the left hand side to do this.

2. Wait for the cartridges to center. Press the empty cartridge with your fingertip to remove it. Once it is loose, gently pull it out of its slot.

3. Remove the plastic packaging from the new HP 952 / 952XL cartridge. Once it is unwrapped, you can immediately install the new cartridge onto the empty slot in the printer.

4. Slide the cartridge into the slot with your fingertip and let it click into place.

5. Close down the printer door.

6. The printer will display a “Genuine Cartridge Installed” message if you installed an original HP cartridge. Otherwise, it will display something else like "Non-HP Cartridges: HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP supplies." Simply click on the OK button to proceed.
