Installing an Ink Cartridge for the First
Time
Follow these ink cartridge precautions and the others in
the
Printer Basics
book:
❏ Install both ink cartridges, and leave them installed for
all types of printing, or the printer won’t work.
❏ Remove the yellow tape seal from the top of the ink
cartridges or you’ll permanently damage them. Don’t
remove the clear seals on the bottom or ink will leak
out.
❏ Don’t open an ink cartridge clamp to remove a
cartridge except to replace it with a new one. Once
you remove a cartridge, you can’t reuse it, even if it
contains ink.
❏ Never turn off the printer when the
P power light is
flashing, unless the printer hasn’t moved or made any
noise for more than five minutes.
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and
do not drink the ink.
If ink gets on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with
soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes, flush them
immediately with water.
1. Lower the output tray and open the cover.

pull out all the paper. Make sure none of the
sheets are curled, creased, old, stuck together,
or too thin. Then reload the paper against the
right edge guide and slide the left edge guide
against it. Turn on the printer and press the
E
load/eject button to resume printing.
