The height of a small graphic îš„ indicates the ink level in

When to Replace an Ink Tank
You should take the following points into consideration
when installing new ink tanks.
Important
z During printing, the right back cover is locked and the
ink tanks cannot be replaced.
z If you pause the printer during printing to replace an
ink tank, image misalignment may occur.
z Never open the right back cover or operate the release
lever while the Initializing message is displayed. This
could damage the printer.
îš„ When the Check Ink Level is Displayed
The Check Ink Level is displayed on the printer display
when the ink level in a tank becomes low. Although the
printer continues to print, this message is displayed to
inform you that an ink tank is about to run out of ink.
Check the amount of ink remaining in the tanks in the
Status Monitor (Windows), Printmonitor (Macintosh) or
on the printer operation panel, and make sure that you
have replacement ink tanks for the colors that are
running low.
Note
z When the level of ink in a tank runs low, the printer
may not have sufficient ink to complete Cleaning B or
other maintenance operations that consume a large
amount of ink. If this happens, replace the ink tank
before cleaning the printhead.
