Hewlett-Packard (HP) warrants to the end-user customer that the HP products specified above will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for the duration specified above, which duration begins on the date of purchase by the customer. 2. For software products, HP’s limited warranty applies only to a failure to execute programming instructions. HP does not warrant that the operation of any product will be interrupted or error free. 3.

Improper maintenance or modification; b. Software, media, parts, or supplies not provided or supported by HP; c. Operation outside the products specifications; d. Unauthorized modification or misuse. 4. For HP printer products, the use of a non-HP cartridge or a refilled cartridge does not affect either the warranty to the customer or any HP support contract with the customer. However, if printer failure or damage is attributable to the use of a non-HP or refilled cartridge or an expired ink cartridge, HP will charge its standard time and materials charges to service the printer for the particular failure or damage. 5.

B Indicator lights The indicator lights on the HP Photosmart A320 series printer tell you about the state of the printer. The tables in this section explain some of the most common and important patterns, as follows: •The On light tells you about the printers power state. •The Resume light tells you about the current print job. It indicates that you need to press the OK button after clearing an error condition. •The Print Cartridge light tells you about the print cartridge. •The PictBridge light tells you about the connected PictBridge camera. •The Attention light usually acts in combination with the other lights. It indicates that you need to correct a problem before printing can resume. The Red Eye light is not listed here, because its only function is to tell you whether or not the automatic photo enhancing feature is turned on. If the printer is connected to a computer, check the computer screen for information about the error condition and how to resolve it. NOTE:If something new occurs, lights that are turned on to indicate one thing may change to indicate the new event. For example, the On light is normally a solid green whenever the printer is turned on. However, if you print a photo, the On light flashes until the printer is finished printing.
