Handle the print cartridges
Before you replace or clean a print cartridge, you should know the part names and how
to handle the print cartridges.
1 Copper-colored contacts
2 Plastic tape with pink pull tab (must be removed before installing)
3 Ink nozzles under tape
Hold the print cartridges by their black plastic sides, with the label on top. Do not touch
the copper-colored contacts or the ink nozzles.
NOTE: Handle the print cartridges carefully. Dropping or jarring cartridges can cause
temporary printing problems, or even permanent damage.
Check the estimated ink levels
You can easily check the ink supply level to determine how soon you might need to
replace a print cartridge. The ink supply level shows an estimate of the amount of ink
remaining in the print cartridges. Actual ink levels may vary.
TIP: You can also print a self-test report to see if your print cartridges might need to
be replaced.
NOTE: If the print cartridges were used before being installed in the product, or have
been refilled, the estimated ink levels on the Estimated Ink levels tab may be
inaccurate or unavailable.
