Maintaining
the Printer
Make sure both BJ tanks are installed in the BC-21e Color
BJ Cartridge. Attempting to use the BC-21e Color BJ Cartridge
with one BJ tank only may cause ink clogging.
If spilled, the ink is difficult to remove. Therefore, it’s a good idea to
keep the BJ cartridges and BJ tanks out of the reach of children.
Do not touch the print head area on the BJ cartridge. Ink may leak
out and cause stains.
C
Hold the BJ cartridge on the sides only. Do not touch the silver plate on
the bottom of the BJ cartridge or the silver metal or circuit area on the
side. The metal area may become hot during printing.
Replacing a BJ Cartridge
The following procedure describes how to replace the BC-21e Color
BJ Cartridge in Holder 1. Follow the instructions in this section to
replace a BJ cartridge in either Holder 1 or Holder 2.
You only need to replace the BC-21e Color BJ Cartridge when the print
head is damaged (or after printing approximately 2000 pages). If one of
the BJ tanks (either color or black) in your BC-21e Color BJ Cartridge is
out of ink, see the next section (page 4-16) for instructions on how to
replace a BJ tank.
Before starting, make sure the printer’s power is on.
