Installing an Ink Cartridge for the First
Time
Follow these ink cartridge precautions:
❏ 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.
If ink gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with
soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes, flush them
immediately with water.
1. Lower the output tray and open the printer cover.
2. Press the
P power button to turn on the printer. The
P power light flashes and the
B black and
A color ink out
lights come on. The ink cartridge holders move left into
loading position.
Don’t use an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch or
timer, or one on the same circuit as a large appliance, to
avoid damaging the printer’s power supply.
Always use the
P
power button to turn the printer on or
off. Never use an external switch, such as a power strip
switch.

that doesn’t work, turn off the printer and gently
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

Turn off the printer, open the cover, and check
inside for any jammed paper. Then turn the printer
back on. If an ink out light remains on and the print
head moves into replacement position, replace the

wait a few seconds, and turn it on again. If the

When all the lights are off, the printer is not
receiving power. Try these solutions:
❏ Make sure the printer is turned on.

securely, and turn on the printer again.
❏ Make sure the outlet is operable and is not
controlled by a switch or timer. If in doubt, try
using another outlet.
