Ink spills on the flex cable

Flex cable refers to the copper contacts on the carriage where the cartridge seats. Clean the flex cable gently with a cotton swab moistened with water. Do not use acetone or any other harsh cleaner as this may cause damage to the flex cable.

Printer settings are lost when printer is turned off or rebooted

Be sure to save your printer settings to a User number. (See "Saving User Settings" in Chapter 2.) When you are ready to print, select the User number that you saved.
