Caution
Never turn off the printer or open the paper path cover on the back when the P Operate light is flashing. However, if the light is still flashing after 15 minutes and the printer is not moving or making noise, you may turn off the printer.
Setting Up the Printer
6.Close the clamp until it clicks into place. The corresponding H ink out light goes out. Repeat steps 3 through 6 for the other ink cartridges.
7.Make sure all the H ink out lights are off, then close the ink
compartment doors. The printer begins charging the advanced ink delivery system. The P Operate light flashes and the printer makes various sounds.
Charging takes about 6 minutes. Do not turn off the printer or interrupt this important process or you’ll use up more ink than necessary. The
POperate light stops flashing when the ink charging process is finished.
