| the right edge guide and slide the left edge guide |
| against it. Turn on the printer and press the |
| S load/eject button to resume printing. |

Follow these ink cartridge precautions:
❏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 don’t drink the ink.
If ink gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water.
1.Lower the output tray and open the printer cover.
2.Press the P power button to turn on the printer. The
P power light flashes and the B black and A color ink out lights come on. The ink cartridge holders move left into loading position.
Don’t use an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch or timer, or one on the same circuit as a large appliance, to avoid damaging the printer’s power supply.
Always use the P power button to turn the printer on or off. Never use an external switch, such as a power strip switch.
