Replacing an ink cartridge
Replace an ink cartridge when it runs out of ink. The frequency of
changing the ink cartridges will vary according to how the printer is
used. If you frequently print images of heavy density, you will need to
change the ink cartridges more often. For details about cartridge
capacity, refer to the specifications at the end of this user’s guide.
