Using the Low-Ink Alert
This printer employs a low-ink alert that warns you when ink in an ink tank runs low. Before
the printer is shipped from the factory, the low-ink alert is turned off.
To turn on the low-ink alert manually, follow these steps:
1 Press the POWER button to turn off the printer.
2 Press and hold down the POWER button until the printer beeps 8 times
then release the POWER button.
When the low-ink alert is turned on, and the ink supply in an ink tank runs low, the ERROR
light starts flashing orange. To determine which ink tank is about to run out of ink, open the
cartridge cover and press the CARTRIDGE button to move the cartridge holder to the
center. The type and number of flashes tell you which ink tank is about to run out of ink.
You can also turn on this feature with a simple procedure in the printer driver.
