Ink-backup Printing Mode allows you to keep printing even if one of your print cartridges fails or runs out of ink. If you receive a print cartridge error message on the printer’s LCD screen or your computer monitor, remove the print cartridge and close the top cover to enter Ink-backup Printing Mode. You will see a message reminding you that you are in Ink-backup Printing Mode.

Printing in Ink-backup Printing Mode slows the printer and affects its print quality. Ink-backup Printing Mode will be used for all print jobs until the missing print cartridge is replaced. For more information about replacing print cartridges, see install or replace print cartridges on page 11.
