Push up the ink cartridge lock lever to confirm that the FINE cartridge is installed properly. After confirming that the FINE cartridge is installed properly, close the paper output cover. If the problem is not resolved, remove the FINE cartridges, then install them again. Refer to Replacing a FINE Cartridge for how to install the FINE cartridges. Page top
