print head, you can replace the cartridge even if the

Ink Cartridge Precautions
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
If ink gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If
ink gets in your eyes, flush them thoroughly with water.
To avoid damaging the printer, never move the print head (ink cartridge
holders) by hand.
You cannot print if either ink cartridge is empty. Leave the empty cartridge
installed in the printer until you have obtained a replacement. Otherwise
the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.
