Replacing ink bottles
Precautions
The following precautions must be strictly enforced when handling
inks.
WARNING: Combustible. Keep ink away from open flames. Do
not drink, drop into eyes, or spill onto your skin. Keep the ink
out of reach of children. The ink can cause difficulty in
breathing and damage your eyes.
1. Use rubber gloves when replacing the ink bottle.
2. Dispose of the empty bottle and gloves in a plastic bag.
3. Dispose of the ink bottles in accordance with local and federal
regulations.
When to replace ink bottle
1. The printer has a separate bottle, each 0.5 or 0.25 liters, for each
color. The ink bottle should be replaced when either:
2. The ink bottle is empty
3. The ink is too old, as indicated on the expiration date, which is
printed on the bottle. Expired ink can cause light image densities.

a. For cases where an ink bottle is empty, the LCD will display
the
Ink Empty
message.
b. An ink bottle can be changed at any time, that is, during
operation, idle, or off.
Caution: There will be a small amount of ink left in the bottom of the
ink cartridge. This is normal. Do not attempt to pour the residue from
one bottle into a fresh bottle. Doing so will alter the chemical makeup
of the inks themselves, and the excessive residue can cause damage
to interior machine components as well as impact color quality. There
is extra ink in each of the bottles to compensate for this residue.
