HP 0706124 REV B manual Switching Between Ink Sets

Switching Between Ink Sets

The inks are located in specific numbered locations on the printer for optimal print and color quality. The software ignores ink positions that are not needed for a print mode, so any ink (or no ink) can be present in these positions. This provides flex- ibility while minimizing the need to swap or reposition inks. For example, by loading a 2x6 C2M2YK ink set, you can switch between 2x6, 1x6, 2x4, and 1x4 print modes at the control panel without moving or changing any inks (see below).

1 x 6

2 x 4

C = Cyan, mC = Medium Cyan
