Refer to "Four flashes:" of "Alarm Lamp Flashes Orange" in " Troubleshooting " of the on-screen manual: Advanced Guide , and take an appropriate action. Note For information on the compatible ink tanks, refer to the printed manual: Getting Started . If print results become faint or white streaks appear despite sufficient ink levels, see When Printing Becomes Faint or Colors Are Incorrect . Replacing Procedure When you need to replace ink tanks, follow the procedure below. Important Handling Ink If you remove an ink tank, replace it immediately. Do not leave the printer with ink tanks removed. Use new ink tanks for replacement. Installing used ink tanks may cause the nozzles to clog. Furthermore, with such ink tanks, the printer will not be able to inform you when to replace the ink tanks properly. Once an ink tank has been installed, do not remove it from the printer and leave it out in the open. This will cause the ink tank to dry out, and the printer may not operate properly when it is reinstalled. To maintain optimal printing quality, use an ink tank within six months of first use. Note Color ink may be consumed even when printing a black-and-white document or when black-andwhite printing is specified. Every ink is also consumed in the standard cleaning and deep cleaning of the Print Head, which may be necessary to maintain the printer's performance. When an ink tank is out of ink, replace it immediately with a new one. For details, see Tips on How to Use Your Printer . 1.
