Maintenance and Transportation
5.If you need to replace the other ink cartridge, follow the steps under “Removing an Empty Ink Cartridge,” and then steps 1 through 4 under “Installing the New Cartridge.”
6.Press the E load/eject button and close the printer cover.
The printer moves the print heads and begins charging the ink delivery system. (Even if you don’t press the button, ink charging begins 60 seconds after you close the clamp.)
The Ppower light flashes, and the printer makes various sounds. Charging takes about three minutes. When it’s finished, you can print again.

To avoid damaging the printer, never move the print heads by hand.
Replacing an Outdated Ink Cartridge
If an ink cartridge is more than six months old, you may need to replace it. How can you tell? You may notice that your printouts don’t look as good as they used to. If print quality doesn’t improve after cleaning and aligning the print heads, you can replace one or both cartridges.
Follow these steps to replace an ink cartridge before the B black or A color ink out light is flashing or on:
1.Make sure the printer is turned on and not printing.
2.Lower the output tray and raise the printer cover.
3.Press both the Y black and X color cleaning buttons and hold them down for a few seconds until the black print head moves to the left.

◗To replace the color ink cartridge, press the X color cleaning button and hold it down for a few seconds. After the color ink cartridge moves to the left, follow the instructions beginning with step 5 on page
