User's Guide Replacing Ink Cartridges ❏ If you need to remove an ink cartridge temporarily, make sure you protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust. Store the ink cartridge in the same environment as the printer, with the ink supply port facing down or sideways. Do not store ink cartridges with the ink supply port facing up. Because the ink supply port is equipped with a valve designed to contain the release of excess ink, there is no need to supply your own covers or plugs. ❏ Removed ink cartridges may have ink around the ink supply port, so be careful not to get any ink on the surrounding area when removing the cartridges. ❏ This printer uses ink cartridges equipped with a green chip that monitors information such as the amount of remaining ink for each cartridge. This means that even if the cartridge is removed from the printer before it is expended, you can still use the cartridge after reinserting it back into the printer. However, when reinserting a cartridge, some ink may be consumed to guarantee printer performance. ❏ For maximum ink efficiency, only remove an ink cartridge when you are ready to replace it. Ink cartridges with low ink status may not be used when reinserted. ❏ To ensure you receive premium print quality and to help protect your print head, a variable ink safety reserve PRELIMINARY remains in the cartridge when your printer indicates to replace the cartridge. The yields quoted for you do not include this reserve. ❏ Although the ink cartridges may contain recycled materials, this does not affect printer function or performance. ❏ Specifications and appearance of the ink cartridge are subject to change without prior notice for improvement. ❏ Do not disassemble or remodel the ink cartridge, otherwise you may not be able to print normally. ❏ You cannot use the cartridges that came with the printer for the replacement. ❏ Quoted yields may vary depending on the images that you are printing, the paper type that you are using, the frequency of your prints and environmental conditions such as temperature. Ink consumption ❏ To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all cartridges not only during printing but also during maintenance operations such as ink cartridge replacement and print head cleaning. ❏ When printing in monochrome or grayscale, color inks instead of black ink may be used depending on the paper type or print quality settings. This is because a mixture of color inks is used to create black. ❏ The ink in the ink cartridges supplied with your printer is partly used during initial setup. In order to produce high quality printouts, the print head in your printer will be fully charged with ink. This one-off process consumes a quantity of ink and therefore these cartridges may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink cartridges. Replacing Ink Cartridges !
