NOTE
• If you do not plan to use the fax feature on this
machine, go to step 3 on page 3.
• To prolong the life of the print head, provide the
best ink cartridge economy and maintain print
quality, we do not recommend unplugging the
machine frequently and/or leaving the machine
unplugged for extended periods of time. Each
time you plug the machine in, it automatically
cleans the print heads, which uses some of
your ink.
We recommend using to power down the
machine. Using allows minimal power to
the machine, resulting in periodic, but less
frequent, cleaning of the print heads.
