Caution: If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust and store it in the same environment as the printer. The valve in the ink supply port is designed to contain any excess ink, but do not touch the ink supply port or surrounding area. Always store ink cartridges with the label facing up; do not store cartridges
Note: If you replace a cartridge while copying a document or photo on the scanner glass, cancel printing and make sure your original is still placed correctly on the document table. Then copy your original again.
