1.3.4 Replacing the ink tanks

You can replace the ink tanks of the BC-61 and BC-62e Photo BJ cartridges (not the BC-60 BJ cartridge). Replace the ink tanks as described below.

1) When to replace the ink tank

Replace the ink tank in any of the following cases: the ink runs out, the ink tank is out of its package for over six months, and the printing quality does not improve even after the head is cleaned.

The color ink tanks of the BC-61 and BC-62e Photo contain multiple colors; if one ink color runs out, the entire color ink tank must be replaced.

2) Removing an ink tank

Press the REPLACE button to move the carriage to the cartridge replacement position (you can also use the printer driver).

As shown in Figure 3-8, lift the front of the ink tank to remove the ink tank from the holder. Do not touch or let your clothing come in contact with the ink feeds on the ink tank.

After installing the ink tank in the holder, press the REPLACE button to return the carriage to the capping position.
