Ink handling tips

■To ensure optimum print quality and best performance, leave the printer turned on overnight and during weekends. Leaving the printer on reduces the number of cleaning cycles, which consume ink.

■Keep ink sticks clean by storing them in their original containers until you are ready to use them.

■The ColorStix ink sticks will break if dropped; handle them with care.

Caution Use only Phaser 360 printer ColorStix ink sticks. The Phaser 360 printer cannot use solid ink intended for other printers, such as the Phaser 380 printer.

Do not load used ink into the printer; reusing waste ink ruins the printhead. Your warranty will not cover repair of damages caused by the reuse of waste ink.

Discard broken ink sticks. Loading broken pieces of ink sticks can cause the ink-loading system to jam.
