Cautions on Ink Cartridges
CAUTION
The ink cartridges that can be used differ depending on the model number of the
product. Use ink cartridges suitable for the model number of your printer.
(U"Ink Cartridge" on page 74)
Do not t
ouch the IC chip on an ink cartridge.
Doing so may result in normal operation and printing becoming no longer possible.
The product uses ink cartridges equipped with IC chips to manage the amount of ink
used and other information so ink cartridges are usable even if they are removed and
reinstalled. However, if an ink cartridge with not much ink remaining is removed and
reinstalled, it may not be usable. Some ink is consumed each time cartridges are
installed because the product automatically checks their reliability.
Install all ink cartridges.
Printing is not possible if even only one ink cartridge is missing.
Since ink cartridges are designed to stop the operation before ink runs out completely
to maintain the quality of the print head, some ink remains in the used ink cartridges.
All the ink colors are consumed also for the maintenance operations when an ink
cartridge is replaced and for print head cleaning.
Do not turn off the power or open the ink cartridge cover during ink charging (while
the (power) LED lamp is flashing).
Opening the cover may cause the ink to be recharged, resulting in more ink being
consumed. Also, it may result in normal printing becoming no longer possible.
Even for monochrome printing, all the ink colors are used in an operation designed to
maintain the printing and print head quality.
Do not disassemble an ink cartridge.
Doing so may cause ink to get into eyes or onto skin.
Do not disassemble or modify an ink cartridge.
Doing so may cause printing malfunction.
Use of old ink cartridges may result in reduced print quality. Use ink cartridges up
within six months after opening the packages. The usage period for ink cartridges is
printed on the packaging of the individual ink cartridges.
