Always press the CARTRIDGE button to move the cartridge holder to the home position. If you fail to press CARTRIDGE button and the cartridge holder stays in the centre, after five minutes the buzzer beeps three times and the cartridge holder automatically returns to the home position to prevent the print head from drying out.

To check the printer installation, print a Demonstration. This and other test prints are described in detail in Chapter 4. (45)

1. Open the front cover of the printer.

2. Select one sheet of plain A4 or Letter size paper.

To avoid fouling the platen with wet ink, never attempt to perform a test print on paper smaller than A4 or Letter size. You can print on either side of plain paper.

3. Press and hold down the POWER button until you hear one beep and release it.
