(→ , Consumables) Precautions when handling ink tanks Take the following precautions when handling ink tanks. • There may be ink around the ink supply section of ink tanks you remove. Handle ink tanks carefully during replacement. The ink may stain clothing. • Do not install used ink tanks in another model of printer. This will prevent correct ink level detection, which may damage the printer or cause other problems. • We recommend using up an Ink Tank in the course of printing within six months after breaking the seal. Printing quality may be affected if you use older ink tanks. • Do not leave the printer without ink tanks installed for extended periods (a month or more). Residual ink may become clogged inside the printer and affect printing quality. • If you pause printing to replace an ink tank, it may cause uneven colors in the printed image. Confirm the message When the ink level becomes low, a message is displayed on the Display Screen. According to the message, replace the ink tank or prepare a new ink tank.
