Handle the print cartridges

Before you replace or clean a print cartridge, you should know the part names and how to handle the print cartridges.

1Copper-colored contacts

2Plastic tape with pink pull tab (must be removed before installing)

3Ink nozzles under tape

Hold the print cartridges by their black plastic sides, with the label on top. Do not touch the copper-colored contacts or the ink nozzles.

NOTE: Handle the print cartridges carefully. Dropping or jarring cartridges can cause temporary printing problems, or even permanent damage.

Replace the print cartridges

Follow these instructions when the ink level is low.

NOTE: When the ink level for a print cartridge is low, a message appears on the display.

When you receive a low-ink warning message on the display, make sure you have a replacement print cartridge available. You should also replace the print cartridges when you see faded text or if you experience print quality issues related to the print cartridges.
