Removing and Installing Ink Cartridges

You can replace a cartridge when the

B

black or

A

color ink out

light is either flashing or on. (If you press the

R

cleaning button

when both ink out lights are off, the printer cleans the print heads,
as described in

Cleaning the Print Head

.)

Follow these steps to replace ink cartridges:

1

Remove the new ink cartridge from its packaging.

2

Remove only the yellow part of the tape seal on top as shown
below. Don’t pull off the blue portion or try to remove the
clear seal underneath the cartridge
.

3

Make sure the printer is turned on and not printing, then open
the printer cover.

Caution:
You must remove the
yellow tape from the
top of the cartridge or
you will permanently
damage it. Do not
remove the clear seal
from the bottom of
the cartridge; ink will
leak out.

To avoid damaging
the printer, never
move the print head
by hand.
