Replacing a FINE Cartridge When remaining ink cautions or errors occur, the message will appear on the LCD to inform you of the error. In this state, the printer cannot print or scan. Take appropriate action according to the message. An Error Occurs Replacing Procedure When you need to replace a FINE cartridge, follow the procedure below. Important • Do not touch the electrical contacts (A) or print head nozzle (B) on a FINE cartridge. The printer may not print properly if you touch them. • If you remove a FINE cartridge, replace it immediately. Do not leave the printer with the FINE cartridge removed. • Use a new FINE cartridge for replacement. Installing a used FINE cartridge may cause the nozzles to clog. Furthermore, with such a FINE cartridge, the printer will not be able to inform you when to replace the FINE cartridge properly. • Once a FINE cartridge has been installed, do not remove it from the printer and leave it out in the open. This will cause the FINE cartridge to dry out, and the printer may not operate properly when it is reinstalled. To maintain optimal printing quality, use a FINE cartridge within six months of first use. Note • For Windows, if a FINE cartridge runs out of ink, you can print with either color or black FINE cartridge, in whichever ink remains, only for a while. However the print quality may be reduced compared to when printing with both cartridges. We recommend to use a new FINE cartridge in order to obtain optimum qualities. Even when printing with one ink only, print with leaving the empty FINE cartridge installed. If either of the color FINE cartridge or black FINE cartridge is not installed, an error occurs and the printer cannot print. For information on how to configure this setting, see below. Setting the FINE Cartridge to be Used • Color ink may be consumed even when printing a black-and-white document or when black-andwhite printing is specified. 77
