When returning to the printer after being switched off for an extended period (less than two weeks)

CAUTION If you need to leave the printer unattended for any reason, ensure that the printer is on, the ink cartridges are full, and the waste ink bottle is empty, so that automatic maintenance (performed after the first 20 hours without printing and every three days) can be completed successfully for the time you are not present. If needed, install new ink cartridges. The ink cartridges that you replace can be reused when you return to your printer, if they still contain ink. If you need to leave the printer unattended for a longer period (up to four weeks) you should use the process described in Prepare for extended power down (two to four weeks).
