After ink tank replacement, the machine starts mixing the ink automatically. Wait until this noise stops. (Mixing takes 1-2 minutes.) Note • Respond to any error messages as needed. Message Appears • If the print head is out of alignment, as when parallel lines are not printed parallel, align the print head. • The machine may make a noise during these operations, but this does not indicate a problem. Notes on ink tanks Important • Install replacement ink tanks promptly. Do not leave the machine without ink tanks installed. • Replace empty ink tanks with new ones. Installing used ink tanks may clog the nozzles. Used ink tanks may also prevent correct notification of the ink tank replacement timing. • Do not remove installed ink tanks and leave them outside the machine. In this state, ink tanks will dry out, which may prevent correct operation when they are reinstalled. To maintain optimal print quality, use up ink tanks within six months after you install them. Note • Color ink may be consumed even when printing black-and-white originals, or when black-and-white printing is specified. All colors of ink are also consumed during standard and deep print head cleaning to maintain performance. When ink tanks run out of ink, promptly replace them with new ones. Ink Tips 201
