Refilling the ink tanks A
When the machine detects it is running out of 
ink, the machine will display a message.
The LCD will show which ink tank is low or 
needs refilling. Be sure to follow the LCD 
prompts to refill the ink tanks in the correct 
order.
You can assess the actual amount of 
remaining ink visually by looking through the 
see-through cover (1) of the ink tank. 
If the remaining ink level is at or below the 
lower line (2) under the triangle mark, refill 
the ink tank.
 
To prevent print head assembly from drying 
out and getting damaged, it is necessary to 
keep the ink above the lower line in the tank.
Refill the ink tank when the remaining ink 
level is at or below the lower line.
 
If ink gets in your eyes, wash it out with 
water at once and call a doctor if you are 
concerned.
