Operating Instructions
- Confirm the HP DeskJet 2800e is plugged in, powered on, and has plain paper loaded in the rear input tray.
- For normal printing, connect your phone, tablet, or computer to the house Wi-Fi, then choose HP DeskJet 2800e from the printer list in your app or system print menu.
- For iPhone, iPad, or Mac, use the normal Share or Print menu and select the HP DeskJet 2800e AirPrint printer if it appears.
- For scanning, use the HP Smart app on your own phone or computer; place the document face-down on the scanner glass and start Scan from the app.
- For copying, place the original face-down on the scanner glass, close the lid, then press the Black Copy or Color Copy button on the printer.
- Use only light guest printing; do not run large print jobs, labels, heavy cardstock, or anything wet/sticky through the printer.
- If the printer shows a paper, ink, offline, or connection warning, stop and contact your host instead of opening panels or changing Wi-Fi settings.
