Installing an Ink Cartridge for the First Time
Follow these ink cartridge precautions and the others in the Printer Basics book:
❏Install both ink cartridges, and leave them installed for all types of printing, or the printer won’t work.
❏Remove the yellow tape seal from the top of the ink cartridges or you’ll permanently damage them. Don’t remove the clear seals on the bottom or ink will leak out.
❏Don’t open an ink cartridge clamp to remove a cartridge except to replace it with a new one. Once you remove a cartridge, you can’t reuse it, even if it contains ink.
❏Never turn off the printer when the P power light is flashing, unless the printer hasn’t moved or made any noise for more than five minutes.
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
If ink gets on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water.
1. Lower the output tray and open the cover.
