Ink-Jet Cartridge Ink-jet Cartridge Precautions WARNING: Keep new and used cartridges out of reach of children. Avoid contact between cartridge and face, eyes, skin, and clothing. Follow these precautions for maximum life of your ink-jet cartridges: Ensemble color models will print much faster with the black ink-jet cartridge rather than the color cartridge. Therefore, you will want to use black for all your printing except when you want color. Ensemble can detect whether you are using black or color ink; you do not need to change any settings when you change cartridges. Ensemble uses a replaceable ink-jet cartridge that contains both the print head and ink. This cartridge will need to be replaced after approximately 1,000,000 characters (estimated using normal text in 12 point URW Roman font). S To prevent a cartridge from drying out, never open the sealed pack until you are ready to install the cartridge. S Install the cartridge immediately after you remove the tape from it. If you set the cartridge aside for an extended period of time, the cartridge head may dry out. For models PDP-300CJ and PDP-350CJ, store the used ink cartridge in the storage box provided. S The bottom of the cartridge is covered with wet ink. Never touch the bottom of the cartridge, and never let it touch any other surface. S To prevent leakage, do not shake the cartridge after it has been removed from its pack. S Do not expose cartridges to direct sunlight. Store them at a temperature lower than 40_C (104_F). S We recommend that you use cartridges within one year of installation to assure high print quality. S To transport Ensemble by air, take out the ink cartridge and install a new one at your destination. Installing or Replacing an Ink-jet Cartridge "To install or replace an ink-jet cartridge: 1. Open the paper support. 2. Open the top cover by pushing in firmly on the two slots on the sides. CAUTION: Do not take out the ink-jet cartridge unless it has been moved to the left side by the INK CHG key. To do so may cause ink to leak from the cartridge. You have 5 minutes to install or change the ink-jet cartridge before the bracket automatically returns to the right hand position. In this case, return to step 3. 3. Press the INK CHG key. The cartridge moves to its ink change position on thefar left of the carriage. Do not move the cartridge manually from side to side. Getting Started 16
