We remove the air bungs which reveal your air vent before you receive your cartridges. This is to avoid
mistakes, as leaving these in the cartridges will prevent ink being released.
If we have supplied you the cartridges with the clear rubber bungs inserted, please remove them.
For First Use
1 Remove coloured stoppers and fill with ink
2. Place all cartridges in your printer in the order that your printer requests.
3. Ensure that all cartridges are clicked firmly in place.
4. Run head cleaning utilty to charge the cartridges.
5. If the cartridges do not recognise immediately,
a. Remove cartridges from your printer

For Re-Filling
re-supply of ink or cartridges

3. Place cartridge in printer and run head clean utility.
4. Only refill the cartridge that the printer has advised is empty,

(If this happens repeat steps b to d)
Notes, Tips & Tricks
1. Please monitor your ink levels in your cartridges as it is not possible for the printer utility program
to show the exact volume of ink in the cartridges as the firmware is set to recognise single use only cartridges.
2. Please ensure that you print using the paper settings for matte/inkjet or gloss and set to high quality.
We would suggest you use these settings even when you are printing on PLAIN paper.
3. To clear a minor blocked head, try printing our test sheet which can be found on www.printingbuddy.co.uk
Please Note: Cartridge Designs & Stopper locations can vary between models
