Caring for your ink and cartridges
• Handle cartridges only on the plastic areas. Touching the copper electrical inter-
connect or the inkjets can damage the cartridge.
• Use only dye or pigment ink intended for this printer. Do not mix inks.
• Do not shake ink refill containers.
• Store ink and cartridges in the same environment as the printer whenever possible.
• If you remove a cartridge from the printer, do not leave it exposed to the air for an extended period because the jets
may clog. Replace the original tape on the jet plate. Place the cartridge in a cartridge garage or sealed plastic bag and
store it in a closed area at room temperature. Keep it out of direct sunlight.
• Open new cartridges only when you are ready to install them.
• Use only Xerox-brand ink refills and cartridges.
•
When you receive a "Low Ink" warning, there is approximately 15-20 minutes of printing time remaining before
the intermediate reservoir runs out of ink.
Note: When an ink bottle is removed, you have 30 seconds to put in another bottle before the printer senses the
bottle's absence and places the printer in Pause mode.
