How to choose the right cartridge for HP DeskJet F390 When selecting ink cartridges for HP DeskJet F390, start with two simple questions: how often you print and what you print most. We encourage you to use these guidelines: - Mostly text (documents, labels, invoices): choose HP 21 XL black for better yield and fewer replacements.
- Text + color graphics (school, charts, occasional photos): pick a multi pack like 21 XL + 22 XL to keep costs predictable.
- Occasional printing: standard HP 21 and HP 22 may be enough, but keep in mind that infrequent use can lead to drying—printing a test page from time to time helps.

Common user issues with HP DeskJet F390 and practical tips The HP DeskJet F390 is straightforward, but like any inkjet it can face a few typical issues. Here’s how we help you avoid them: - Printer not recognizing the cartridge: remove and reinsert the cartridge, check protective tape is fully removed, and gently clean contacts with a dry, lint-free cloth.
- Streaks or faded prints: run the printer’s cleaning/maintenance cycle and print a test page; low ink or dried nozzles are common causes.
- Color looks off: replace the color cartridge (HP 22 / 22 XL) and print an alignment page.
- Ink drying due to infrequent printing: print a small page in black and color once every 1–2 weeks to keep nozzles in good condition.
