Managing the Ink Cartridges

Tips for your ink cartridges

To get the maximum benefit from your ink cartridges:

Do not remove an ink cartridge from its packaging until you are ready to install it.

Do not refill the ink cartridge. The warranty will not cover damage caused by using refilled cartridges.

3Store the ink cartridge in the same environment as the printer.

Do not remove an ink cartridge from the printer except to replace it. Immediately replace the ink cartridge or store it in the storage unit. The ink cartridge will not print correctly if removed from the machine and left exposed to air for an extended period.

Do not swap the colour cartridge with the black cartridge. The colour cartridge should be installed in the Left carrier and the black cartridge

3should be installed in the Right carrier.

If you have an opened ink cartridge you are not currently using and do not have an available print cartridge storage unit, store it in an airtight plastic bag. Do not leave it exposed to the air for an extended period; this promotes drying out and clogging of the print nozzles.

Clean Print Head Procedure

You should test the print cartridge when the print is not clear or image information is missing. The problem may be caused by blocked nozzles on the ink cartridge.

This procedure cleans the ink cartridge by purging the nozzles. Then it prints a test so you can see the results.

Use the procedure:

3When you suspect the nozzles are clogged. When characters are not printing completely.
