• Photo cartridges should be used for printing
pictures. Using it for normal faxing and black
printing operations will prematurely deplete the
black ink in the photo cartridge.
• Printing black with the photo cartridge installed will
be much slower than using the black cartridge.
• Normal incoming faxes cannot be printed when the
Photo cartridge is installed. They will be saved to
memory so you may print them later.
Always store the unused black or photo cartridge in the storage
container provided with the photo cartridge.
