Cause

Action

 

 

Ink tank is empty.

If the ink tank lamp is flashing, ink is empty. Replace the ink tank, and

 

close the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover).

 

If printing is not finished yet, just press [OK] on the machine to continue

 

printing in the “no ink” state.

 

Replace the ink tank with a new one as soon as possible after printing has

 

finished. The machine may be damaged if printing is continued under the

 

ink out condition.

 

Note

 

 

 

 

 

 

If multiple ink tank lamps are flashing, check how fast they flash. Fast

 

flashing (about one second) indicates the ink is empty. Slow flashing

 

(about three seconds) indicates ink is low. For details on different flashing

 

speeds, see “Getting the Ink Level Information” on page 142.
