3.7 PRINT CARTRIDGE MAINTENANCE
3.7.01 General Information
NOTE:
DO NOT install the print cartridges in the printer until you are instructed to do so during the
installation of the printer software.
The information provided in this section is also provided in the Users Guide.
The printer comes with two cartridges: one black and one color.
The installation process is the same for both.
Each cartridge must be inserted into the correct position in the print cartridge carrier. To do this, match the
color of the cartridge top to the color of the strips on the carrier. Black goes to black (black cartridge) and
green goes to green (color cartridge).
Observe the following recommendations to get the maximum benefit from the print cartridges.
Keep the print cartridges in their packaging until you are ready to install them. This prevents the printhead
from drying out.
Never refill the print cartridges.
Refilling empty print cartridges with unapproved ink will invalidate your warranty. Incompatible inks can
cause damage to the printhead or to the printer.
For best results, use Okidata supplies with the printer.
Store the print cartridge in the same environment as the printer.
Always keep the print cartridges in the print carriage, except to replace or clean them.
Always leave the print carriage in the parked position (at the far right end of the printer) when not printing.
This prevents the printhead from drying out.
If you do remove the print cartridges, replace them immediately. They will not print correctly if they are left
exposed to air for an extended period.
Each print cartridge includes both the ink supply and the printhead. When a print cartridge is replaced, the
printhead is also replaced.
