Routine Maintenance

This section includes:

•Adding Ink on page 127

•Emptying the Waste Tray on page 129

•Replacing the Maintenance Kit on page 132

Your printer needs little maintenance to keep it producing quality prints. Add ink, empty the waste tray, and replace the maintenance kit when needed to keep your printer functioning properly.

Adding Ink

You can load ink any time the printer is idle, or when the printer control panel displays a message to add ink or displays a message that the printer is out of ink.

•Keep ink in its packaging until you are ready to use it.

•Do not force the solid ink when inserting it into the ink-loading bins. Identify ink by color and shape.

•To avoid ink jams, never insert broken solid ink into the ink-loading bins.
