When to Replace an Ink Tank

When either of the 2 messages below appears, you should have extra ink tanks on hand ready for replacement.

TWhen the “Ink Check” Message is Displayed

When the ink level in a tank is very low, the ink check message is displayed but printing continues. When this message is displayed, this means that the ink tank will run out of ink very soon. The capital letter(s) in the message indicate the ink tank color: Y (Yellow), M (Magenta), PM (Photo Magenta), C (Cyan), PC (Photo Cyan), Bk (Black). After this message is displayed, have the correct color ink tank on hand for replacement.

Note

z When the ink level in a tank is very low, you may not be able to perform Head Cleaning C, Head Cleaning B, or other head cleaning tasks that consume ink. In such a case, perform printhead cleaning (“Head Cleaning”) after replacing the ink tank.

z When the ink runs out in more than one tank, the mark of each empty tank is displayed one by one.
