How do I replace the ink cartridge in my HP OfficeJet Pro 8600?

1. To open the cartridge access door, look for a slot on the left and pull the door forward.
2. The printhead will start moving. Wait until it stops on the leftmost side of the printer where you can easily access the cartridges.
3. Release the empty cartridge from the printhead by pushing on it.
4. Once the cartridge is released, pull it out gently.
5. Remove packaging from new cartridge. Be careful not to touch the copper contacts and the nozzle as this can cause printer errors or ink failure.
6. Install the new cartridge. Make sure you slide the new cartridge into the correct slot.
7. Push the cartridge until it latches in place.
