If a cartridge is low or expended, you see a message on the display screen. Note which cartridges need to be replaced and press OK. (If you have installed a High Capacity ink cartridge-68-the message on your screen may show it as 69.) If you're replacing a cartridge before you see a message on the display screen, press the Setup button, select Maintenance, and press OK. Then select Change Ink Cartridge and press OK. 2. Open the scanner, then open the cartridge cover. 3. Squeeze the tab on the cartridge and lift it up. Dispose of it carefully. Do not take the used cartridge apart or try to refill it. Warning: If ink gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children. 36 Maintaining Your All-in-One
