Refilling the Ink Tank

Make sure you have a new ink bottle handy and have read the ink safety precautions before you begin.

You can continue to use the product even if the ink tank is not filled all the way. However, to keep your product operating at its best, fill the ink tank up to the top line.

Caution:
Wear plastic gloves while refilling the ink tank to avoid staining your hands.
  1. Place a sheet of paper under the ink tank area in case of spills.
  2. Open the ink tank unit cover, then remove the ink tank’s cap and place it in the storage area. Be careful not to spill any ink.


  3. Snap off the tip of the bottle cap, but do not dispose of the bottle cap tip so you can use it to seal the bottle cap later, if necessary. Then remove the cap, remove the seal from the bottle, and replace the cap on the bottle.


    Caution:
    Install the bottle cap tightly; otherwise, ink may leak.


  4. Refill the ink tank to the upper line on the ink tank.


  5. If any ink remains in the ink bottle after filling the ink tank, place the bottle cap tip securely on the bottle cap and store the ink bottle upright for later use.


  6. Place the cap securely on the ink tank.


  7. Close the ink tank unit cover.
