Problems Setting Up the Printer or Installing Its
Software

You installed the ink cartridges
and the printer started making
noise . . .

The first time you install ink
cartridges, the printer charges its
ink delivery system for a couple
of minutes. Please wait until
charging is finished (the

Ppower

light stops flashing) before you
turn off the printer. If you turn
off the printer while it’s charging,
it begins charging again and uses
more ink than necessary when
you turn it back on. See the Start
Here
card for details.

Make sure the ink cartridge
clamps are locked down
completely and that no packing
material remains in the printer.

You’re having problems installing
the printer software . . .

Carefully follow the instructions
for installing the printer software
on the Start Here card, making
sure your printer is turned on and
the interface cable is securely
connected at both ends.

If you still have problems, close
all other applications, including
anti-virus programs and screen
savers. Then try installing the
software again.
