Printing in ink-backup mode Solution: If you receive the ink-backup mode message and two print cartridges are installed in the product, verify that the protective piece of plastic tape has been removed from each print cartridge. When plastic tape covers the print cartridge contacts, the device cannot detect that the print cartridge is installed. 1 Copper-colored contacts 2 Plastic tape with pink pull tab (must be removed before installing) 3 Ink nozzles under tape For more information, see Use ink-backup mode. Cause: When the product detected that only one print cartridge is installed, inkbackup mode is initiated. This printing mode lets you print with a single print cartridge, but it slows the product and affects the quality of printouts. 184 Troubleshooting
