Changing control panel settings
Follow these steps to change the settings listed above:
1. Load four or more sheets of paper, at least 8.3 inches
(210 mm) wide, into the built-in sheet feeder, making sure
the right edge guide is positioned correctly for your paper’s
width and the paper release lever is set to the single sheet
position.
2. Turn off the printer.
3. Hold down the
Micro Adjust D button and press the
P Operate button to turn on the printer and enter default-
setting mode. Release the
Micro Adjust D button when the
Operate light comes on.
The printer loads a sheet of paper and prints an instruction
sheet telling you how to select a language (the default
setting is English). The printer can then print default-
setting instructions in the language you choose.
4. Press the
Alt button until the Ink Out B and Ink Out A
lights on your control panel indicate the language you want
to use.

6. Follow the instructions on the sheets to change the
necessary settings, as listed in the next section. Your changes
remain in effect until you change them again.
(To exit without changing any settings, press the
Pause
button.)
7. When you’re finished changing settings, press
Load/Eject if
you need to eject any loaded paper. Then turn off the
printer to exit default-setting mode.
8. Wait five seconds, then turn on your printer to resume
printing normally.
Installing an Ink Cartridge for the First

1. Press the P Operate button to turn on the printer. The
Operate and Ink Out lights come on and the ink cartridge
holders move to the installation position. The

yellow portion of the tape seal on top. Don’t remove the
white portion.

from the top of the cartridge; leaving any portion of it
