6 After installing all 8 cartridges, lower the ink levers. The printer begins charging the ink delivery system and the pause light flashes.

7 After approximately 2 minutes, ink lever messages appear on the LCD. Follow the instruction to raise or lower the ink levers.

Caution: Charging takes about 8 minutes. Never turn off the printer, open the cover, remove the rear cover, release the paper lever, or remove the ink cartridges or maintenance tank while the pause light is flashing, or you may damage the printer.

8 When READY appears on the LCD display, charging is complete. Close the ink compartment covers.

Caution: Always turn off the printer using the power button. Then wait until the LCD display turns off. This ensures that the print head is safely capped.
