■Do not remove ink car tridges if you do not need to replace them.
If you do so, it may reduce the ink quantity and the MFC will not
know the quantity of ink left in the cartridge.
■Do not touch the cartridge i nsertion slots. If you do so, the ink
may stain your skin.
■If ink stains your skin or clothing, wash with soap or detergent
immediately.
■If you install an ink cartridge in the wrong color position, you must
clean the print head several times before you start printing (after
correcting the cart ridge installation) b ecause the colors were
mixed.

within six months of insta llation. Use unopened ink car tridges by
