2. MACHINE PRECAUTIONS
2.1 BJ Cartridge Handling
2.1.1 Unpacking the BJ cartridge
Do not unpack the BJ cartridge until you are ready to use it.
Before installing the BJ cartridge in the printer, remove the cap protecting the nozzles
and gently peel off the protective tape.
Do not attempt to reuse the cap or the tape after they have been removed, as doing so
may cause faulty printing.
If you replace the cap on the color BJ cartridge or photo BJ cartridge, the
sponge in the cap may cause the colors to bleed into each other. The
nozzles may also become clogged.
Always move the carriage to the BJ cartridge replacement position before
attempting to remove or install a cartridge. Failure to do so may result in
damage to the BJ cartridge.
2.1.2 BJ cartridge protection
To prevent the nozzles from clogging, never touch or wipe the nozzles, joint pipes, or
ink tank outlets with your bare hands or with tissue paper, etc. After removing the
cap and peeling off the protective tape from a BJ cartridge, promptly install the
cartridge in the printer or store it in the cartridge holder. If the BJ cartridge is not
capped or stored in the cartridge holder, the nozzles may clog due to dried out ink or
dust, etc.
Do not attempt to leave color BJ cartridges or photo BJ cartridges with their ink tanks
removed.
BJ cartridges cannot be disassembled, reassembled, or washed.
Clogged nozzles cause faulty printing. If this problem persists even after
the nozzles are cleaned, replace the BJ cartridge.
