H. INSTALLING THE INK CARTRIDGE
Your printer has a built-in ink tracking system. This system is
designed to warn you if your ink cartridge is low on ink. This
ensures your labels will print properly and that the printer can
create large batches of labels unattended and worry-free.

must be changed using the procedure listed below. Failure
to follow this procedure could result in inaccurate ink level
tracking and could cause your print quality to suffer.
