Related tasks Storing the Printer Related topics Maintenance Handling Ink and Cleaning Cartridges Follow these guidelines as you handle the ink and cleaning cartridges: • When using the 250 ml installation ink cartridges included with the printer, most of the ink is consumed during initial ink charging. Be sure to have replacement cartridges handy. • After the ink charging process has begun, do not open covers, press buttons, or do anything else to interrupt the process. If interrupted, the ink charging process will restart and the cartridge may no longer have enough ink to complete the initial charge. • Store ink and cleaning cartridges at room temperature, out of direct sunlight, and use them before the expiration date printed on the packaging. • To ensure print quality, use ink and cleaning cartridges within one year of installing them. • Allow ink cartridges and cleaning cartridges that have been stored at low temperatures for an extended period of time to return to room temperature over a period of four hours before use. • Do not touch the IC chips on the cartridges. • The IC chip on each cartridge stores information, such as ink levels, to allow the cartridge to be used after being removed and re-installed. • Install ink and cleaning cartridges into all the slots on the printer or the printer cannot print. • Do not leave the printer without cartridges installed in all the slots, even when the printer is not in use. The ink in the printer may dry out. • If you remove an ink cartridge before it is empty, wipe off any ink from the ink supply port using a cleaning stick in the maintenance kit. If ink dries on the supply port, the cartridge may leak when it is 21
