Replacing the
Ink Cartridge “Low Ink - Order Ink” appears on the IntelliLink® Control Center main
screen when there is only enough ink for approximately 10 days of mailing.
You can choose to ignore this warning - refer to the Configuring Low Ink
Warning
section in Chapter 5 in this guide.
Your actual ink usage will vary depending on whether you routinely print
advertisements or inscriptions and how may pieces of mail you print per
day.
“Low Ink” displays approximately two days before the ink runs out. You can
print about another 300 meter stamps or leave the mailing system running
for six days without printing. If you do not have a replacement cartridge,
order one now. Refer to Supplies and Options, Chapter 11 in this guide.
“Out of Ink” displays when there is no more ink left in the cartridge and your
mailing system stops printing. In order to resume printing you must change
the ink cartridge.
To replace the ink cartridge:
1. Lift up the main cover and
locate the ink cartridge
lid.
WARNING!
Use Pitney Bowes ink cartridges to ensure bet
printer performance. Other ink cartridges may cause: poor
print quality, rejected/returned mail and uncovered service
expense.
WARNING!
The ink in the cartridge may be harmful if swal-
lowed. Keep new and used cartridges out of reach of chil-
dren. Discard empty cartridges immediately.
WARNING!
Do not remove the ink cartridge if the printhead

at the same time, ink from the print supply line will flow down
the tube and squirt from the needle in the ink cartridge holder
out into the printer and system interior.

Make sure there is enough room to fully lift the
main cover without bumping the IntelliLink® Control Center.
