Replacing an Ink Tank

When remaining ink cautions or errors occur, the Alarm lamp will flash orange to inform you of the error.
Count the number of flashes and take appropriate action.
If an Error Occurs
Note
• For information on the compatible ink tank, refer to the printed manual: Safety and Important
Information.
• If print results become faint or white streaks appear despite sufficient ink levels, see
Procedure.
Replacing Procedure
When you need to replace an ink tank, follow the procedure below.
Important
• If you remove an ink tank, replace it immediately. Do not leave the printer with the ink tank removed.
• Use a new ink tank for replacement. Installing a used ink tank may cause the nozzles to clog.
Furthermore, with such an ink tank, the printer will not be able to inform you when to replace the ink
tank properly.
• Once an ink tank has been installed, do not remove it from the printer and leave it out in the open.
This will cause the ink tank to dry out, and the printer may not operate properly when it is reinstalled.
To maintain optimal printing quality, use an ink tank within six months of first use.
Note
• Color ink may be consumed even when printing a black-and-white document or when black-and-
white printing is specified.
Every ink is also consumed in the standard cleaning and deep cleaning of the print head, which may
be necessary to maintain the performance of the printer. When an ink tank is out of ink, replace it
immediately with a new one.
Useful Information about Ink
