Maintaining Print Cartridges

To get the maximum benefit from your print cartridges:

Do not remove a print cartridge from its packaging until you are ready to install it.

Do not refill the print cartridges. The warranty does not cover damage caused by using refilled cartridges.

Store the print cartridges in the same environment as your product.

Do not remove a print cartridge from the product except to replace, or clean. Immediately replace the print cartridge or store in the storage unit. The print cartridge will not print correctly if removed from the product and left exposed for an extended period of time.

Your product will not print with only one print cartridge installed. If you do not have a new replacement for the empty print cartridge, leave the empty cartridge in the cartridge holder of the product.

Do not swap the colour cartridge with the black cartridge. The colour cartridge should be installed in the Left carrier and the black cartridge should be installed in the Right carrier.

If you have an opened ink cartridge you are not currently using and do not have an available print cartridge storage unit, store it in an airtight plastic bag. Do not leave it exposed to air for an extended period; this promotes drying out and clogging of the print nozzles.
