Maintaining Print Cartridges
To get the maximum benefit from your print cartridges:
• Do not remove a print cartridge from its packaging until you are
ready to install it.
• Do not refill the print cartridges. The warranty does not cover
damage caused by using refilled cartridges.
• Store the print cartridges in the same environment as your
product.
• Do not remove a print cartridge from the product except to
replace, or clean. Immediately replace the print cartridge or store
in the storage unit. The print cartridge will not print correctly if
removed from the product and left exposed for an extended
period of time.
• Do not swap the colour cartridge with the black cartridge. The
colour cartridge should be installed in the left carrier and the
black cartridge in the right carrier.
• If you have an opened ink cartridge you are not currently using
and do not have an available print cartridge storage unit, store it
in an airtight plastic bag. Do not leave it exposed to air for an
extended period; this promotes drying out and clogging of the
print nozzles.
NOTE:
If any (or both) cartridge(s) is not installed in the product, the
display alerts you with the message “CHECK xxxx CARTRIDGE”
(where xxxx designates the empty cartridge). Install the cartridge(s)
to print properly.
However, if you force to print out, your product can function even
when any (or both) cartridge runs out of ink or is not installed. For
example, if a fax is received when any cartridge is not installed, the
display alerts with the message “CHECK xxxx CARTRIDGE” and
toggles “TO FAX PRINT PRESS ENTER.” If you press Enter, the product
prints out the received fax with one (or no) cartridge installed. The
print quality cannot be normal and you may see a white paper.
