Make sure
you have a replacement cartridge handy before you begin. You must
install the new cartridge immediately after removing the old one.
Caution:
Leave your old cartridge in the printer until
you are ready to replace it to prevent the print head nozzles from
drying out. Do not open the ink cartridge package until you are
ready to install the ink. Cartridges are vacuum packed to maintain
reliability.
- Turn on
your product.
- If the ink
cartridge is expended, you see a message on the LCD screen. Press
the OK button, then
press 1.
- If you are
replacing the cartridge before you see a message on the LCD screen,
press the Menu button, then select Maintenance > Ink
Cartridge Replacement.
- Lift up
the scanner unit.
Caution:
Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise,
you may damage your product. Do not touch the flat white cable
inside the printer.
Caution:
Do not lift up the scanner unit when the
document cover is open.
- 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 cartridge after opening the
package, or ink may leak.
- Remove
the cartridge from the package.
Caution:
Do not touch the green chip or the small
window 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.
- Press
the OK button.
The print head moves to its home position and the printer starts
priming the ink. This takes about 2 minutes. When you see a
confirmation message on the screen, ink priming 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, press the OK button, lift up the scanner unit, and
press the ink cartridge down until it clicks into place. When
you're finished, press the OK button again.
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.
Note: If you
replace a cartridge while copying a document on the scanner glass,
cancel printing and make sure your original is still placed
correctly on the document table. Then copy your original
again.
