Make sure
you have your replacement cartridges handy before you begin. You
must install new cartridges immediately after removing the old
ones.
Caution:
Leave your old cartridges in the printer
until you are ready to replace them to prevent the print head
nozzles from drying out. Do not open ink cartridge packages until
you are ready to install the ink. Cartridges are vacuum packed to
maintain reliability.
- Turn on your product.
- If an ink cartridge is expended, you see a
message on the LCD screen. Note which cartridges need to be
replaced and select How to.
- If you are replacing a cartridge before you
see a message on the LCD screen, press the home button if necessary, and
select Maintenance >
Ink Cartridge(s) Replacement >
Start .
- Lift up the scanner unit until it clicks.
The ink cartridge holder moves to the replacement
position. If the ink cartridge holder returns to the home position
(far right), repeat steps 1 and 2.
Caution:
Do not move the print head by hand or use
any kind of tool to remove a cartridge; otherwise, you may damage
your product. Do not touch the flat white cable inside the
printer.
- Squeeze the tab on the cartridge and lift the cartridge
straight up to remove it.
Note: Dispose
of used cartridges carefully. Do not take the used cartridge apart
or try to refill it.
Warning: If
ink gets on your skin, wash it thoroughly with soap and water. If
ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If ink
gets into your mouth, spit it out and see a doctor right away. Keep
ink cartridges out of the reach of children.
- Before opening the new cartridge package, shake it gently
four or five times.
Caution:
Do not shake the cartridges after opening
the packages, or ink may leak.
- Remove the cartridge from the package.
Caution:
Do not touch the green chip on the
cartridge. Install the new cartridge immediately after removing the
old one; if you do not, the print head may dry out and be unable to
print.
- Remove the yellow tape from the cartridge.
Caution:
Do not remove any other labels or seals,
or ink will leak.
- Insert the new cartridge into the holder and push it down
until it clicks into place.
- Lower the scanner unit, and select Completed on the LCD screen if
necessary.
The print head moves to its home position and the printer starts
charging the ink. This takes about 90 seconds. When you see a
confirmation message on the screen, ink charging is finished.
Caution:
Never turn off the product while the
power light is flashing or you will waste ink.
If you see an error screen telling you an ink cartridge is
installed incorrectly, lift up the scanner unit and press the ink
cartridge down until it clicks into place. When you're finished,
select OK.
If you remove a low or expended ink cartridge, you
cannot re-install and use the cartridge.
Caution:
If you remove an ink cartridge for later
use, protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust and store it in
the same environment as the printer. The valve in the ink supply
port is designed to contain any excess ink, but do not touch the
ink supply port or surrounding area. Always store ink cartridges
with the label facing up; do not store cartridges
upside-down.
