automatically enters the initial ink-charging mode when you turn on the printer and install ink
cartridges, as long as the printer was properly prepared for transportation.
Use only recommended tools for disassembling, assembling, or adjusting the printer.
Apply lubricants and adhesives as specified (See Chapter 6 for details).
Make all required adjustments when you disassemble the printer (See Chapter 4 for details).
